B)an absorption line spectrum.
C)an emission line spectrum.
D)X-rays.
E)radio waves.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When an electron in a gas is excited to a higher energy level by collisions, it will eventually fall back down to its original energy level, emitting a photon with a specific wavelength. This process leads to the production of an emission line spectrum, which can be used to identify the chemical composition and temperature of the gas.
