What determines the color of light an atom emits?

Question 9
9.

What occurs when an electron moves to a higher energy level?

Question 10
10.

Heated gaseous atoms of elements emit light in unique colored patterns as electrons drop from excited energy states to ground energy states. Heated hydrogen atoms have only four colored lines: red, green, blue, and violet. What prediction did Niels Bohr make about electrons based on this information?

Question 11
11.

An electron in an atom can gain energy by being heated and move to a higher energy orbital. When the electron returns to its ground state the energy is released as–
