Students have asked these similar questions
Every elemental gas has a unique set of color bands in their atomic spectrum. a) what does a different color of light indicate about the energy of a photon. b) what does your answer to part a tell you about the energy levels of electrons in a different elements or molecules. c) which element would have a higher ground state energy for electrons, silicone or chlorine? This ground state is dependent on the number of protons in the nucleus z.
