Question

If an atom receives the right amount of energy, an electron will absorb the energy and move up to the energy level which corresponds to the amount of energy absorbed. This energy is often quickly emitted in the form of light. When this happens, the electron returns to its original state. The amount of energy emitted corresponds to what?

A unique wavelength with a specific color

A ubiquitous wavelength with a specific color

A unique wavelength with a ubiquitous color

None of the above

A unique wavelength with a specific color

A ubiquitous wavelength with a specific color

A unique wavelength with a ubiquitous color

None of the above

Explanation / Answer

Since the amount of energy absorbed = amount of energy emitted

So A unique wavelength with a specific color

Therefore first option was correct
