ATOMIC SPECTRA
INTRODUCTION
The study of interaction between light and an object is known as spectroscopic studies. A major factor in understanding the structure of atoms and molecules, and going as far as verifying the quantum theory is from what we have learned from Spectroscopic Studies. This experiment helps better the understanding of how to use spectroscopes and chemical changed that occurs in flame ionization. There are also 3 equations given. E=hλ , λv = c, and E = hc/λ, in which v is frequency, and λ is wavelength, this type of radiation is created by packets of energy called photons, which are measured in joules. These 3 equations help determining the data needed to compile the formal report.
