The characteristic spectrum of an atom is observed as
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is A Pure line spectrum
When atoms are excited they emit light of certain wavelengths which
correspond to different colors and the emitted light is observed as a
series of colored lines with dark spaces in between. The series of colored lines are called a line or atomic spectra.
Each element produces a unique set of spectral lines and since no two
elements emit the same spectral lines, elements can be identified by
their line spectrum.
