Spectra from different atoms have differing numbers of discrete spectral lines. The thickness of each spectral line also varies by atom. The number of spectra lines tends to increase as the number of electrons increase. Not all atoms emit each color. Spectral lines are considered a “fingerprint” for each atom, therefore each is unique. They are similar in that they only express certain wavelengths of color, and that color must be within the visible spectrum. ● How would you use the idea of quantization of energy to explain the nature of these spectra? When energy in quantized, there are specific lines that occur at specific energy levels as electrons move up and down specific quanta. Energy is not continuous, like a slope, but rather more
