Part 2: Emission Spectra
In the flame test you saw a single color as the excited atoms released the energy they gained. But there are billions of excited atoms releasing energy. The excited atoms do not all emit the same energy light because the amount of energy that excited them may differ. The kinds of light energy that can be emitted by excited atoms is unique for an element. The pattern of "lines' or colors emitted is called an emission spectrum can be used to identify an element. Astronomers also have the ability to measure amounts of an element by measuring the brightness of the emitted light.
What you need to do: Colored light is emitted by excited gases of elements in sealed glass tubes called "spectrum" tubes. (Direct current, DC, high voltage electrons are used to excite the atoms in the spectrum tube. High voltage means 1000 to 2000 volts. This is more than 10 times normal household voltage which is 120 volts AC.) A spectroscope can separate the light produced by a spectrum tube. The color seen by the naked eye is a combination of a number of colors of light. These are separated by the spectroscope’s diffraction grating to produce an emission spectrum. Use the Virtual Spectroscopy Lab (Part 2: Emission line spectra for selected elements) to observe the emission spectra for known elements and then use this information to figure out the identity of unknown elements.
Use the table above to determine what these two elements are.
Part 3: Fingerprinting the Stars
There is another way in which elements can produce spectra. Suppose that instead of a heated sample of some element, you have the element in the form of a relatively cool gas. Now let's say that a source of white light-- containing all visible wavelengths--is shining behind the gas. When photons (bursts of light) from the light source make their way through this gas, some of them can interact with the atoms--provided that they have just the right frequency to bump an electron of that element up to a higher energy level.
Photons at those particular frequencies are thus absorbedby the gas and all those other frequencies would come through okay. Then the spectrum of light that had been through the gas would just have some gaps in it, at the frequencies that were absorbed. The spectrum with these missing frequencies is called an absorption spectrum. Note that the dark lines in an absorption spectrum appear at exactly the same frequencies as the bright lines in the corresponding emission spectrum.
What does this have to do with stars? If you look more closely at the Sun's spectrum, you will notice the presence of dark lines. These lines are caused by the Sun's atmosphere absorbing light at certain wavelengths, causing the intensity of the light at this wavelength to drop and appear dark. The atoms and molecules in a gas will absorb only certain wavelengths of light. The pattern of these lines is unique to each element and tells us what elements make up the atmosphere of the Sun. We usually see absorption spectra from regions in space where a cooler gas lies between us and a hotter source. We usually see absorption spectra from stars, planets with atmospheres, and galaxies. Astronomers also have the ability to measure amounts of an element present in an object by measuring the thickness of the dark lines.
Here are spectra for some elements common in the atmospheres of stars:
Below you will see both the elements for comparison and a star's spectrum. Your job is to identify all the elements you can detect in the star's atmosphere.
