The light given off by an energetically excited atom is not a continuous distribution of all possible wavelengths‚ but rather consists of a few wavelengths giving a series of discrete lines. Spectroscopy is the analysis of that emitted light and its dispersion into to it’s component wavelengths and colors. Niels Bohr explained the discrete spectrum of hydrogen by relating it to the electron. Normally the electron in the hydrogen atom is located

DateExperiment 3: Atomic Spectroscopy Introduction The purpose of the atomic spectroscopy lab experiment was to investigate the relationship between visible light‚ which is the visibly observable range of electromagnetic radiation and the change in energy levels of an element. The line spectrum that was seen in the spectroscope was the evidence of excited atoms emitting electrons and radiating a spectrum of light as it moved from a higher energy state back down to a lower energy level. Using a spectrometer
