Study Notes
Atomic Emission Spectroscopy
- Atomic emission spectroscopy uses heat to change atoms into an excited state, causing them to emit light, which is then measured.
- A line emission spectrum can be viewed through a spectroscope, producing a unique pattern for each element.
- The element with an unknown line closest to potassium when compared is mentioned, highlighting the importance of identifying unique spectral lines.
- Atomic emission spectroscopy is commonly known as flame photometry.
- The line emission spectrum of an element is unique, making it a distinct fingerprint for identifying elements.
