Question
When electricity is run through neon gas, it produces certain frequencies of electromagnetic radiation
called its emission spectrum. What makes neon have this unique combination of colors? (1 point)
Answers below:
Neon's electrons are made of unique colors that reflect certain frequencies of light.
Neon has a certain number of positive and negative charges, and when these charges interact with energy,
they release different amounts electromagnetic radiation in the form of light.
Neon has a unique amount of gravity, which refracts light, so it has certain frequencies.
Neon has unique energy levels from which atoms release energy as electromagnetic radiation when excited
electrons move to lower energy levels.
