Lab 3: Hydrogen Spectrum Abstract When white light is viewed through a diffraction grating‚ we can see each component that makes up the light. However‚ when in an excited state‚ a gaseous element produces bright light of specific wavelengths rather than a continuous spectrum of colors. This phenomenon ultimately lead to the Neils Bohr model of the atom in 1913. Introduction In the middle of the 19th century‚ Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kichoff observed that gases emit spectral lines specific

For the unknown light source‚ it had almost every color‚ so it might have been be mercury because they have similar color beams and their color from the naked eye appeared as purple‚ which mercury‚ a light blue‚ is very close to in terms of it’s color on the spectrum. For the unknown flame crystals‚ it may NH4+ because the colors that appeared are very similar to the crystals. Next‚ chemicals have to be heated in the flame for the color to emit because heat adds energy to the substance making the

Carbon Emission and it’s Issues Recently‚ the amount of carbon emissions reached 40 billion tons. This is a record high‚ and is very damaging for Earth and humans alike. Carbon emission is a serious issue that can affect all of us in the near future. It is very harmful to the environment‚ but can also be delayed. Carbon emission is the total amount of carbon dioxide that are released in the air. There are natural and unnatural reasons for this. Nature‚ releases carbon dioxide‚ one of the most common

The first unknown element sodium knew it was because she got yellow and each element corresponded a unique color. The second element potassium knew it was because I acquired a blue color‚ in the experiment verified that each element corresponded to a different color. Part
