Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra

 Visible light is composed of the basic colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet (R.O.Y.G.B.V.).

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  It was Isaac Newton who proved that visible (“white”) light was composed of the basic colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Light is not just the visible light spectrum (R.O.Y.G.B.V.) but includes radiation such as TV and radio, microwaves, radar, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Light is not just the visible light spectrum (R.O.Y.G.B.V.) but includes radiation such as TV and radio, microwaves, radar, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. 10 –16 10 –14 10 –12 10 –10 10 –8 10 –6 10 –4 10 – wavelength (meters) frequency (hertz – cycles/s ) gamma rays X rays ultraviolet visible light infrared radar microwaves TV & radio waves 400 nm450 nm500 nm550 nm600 nm650 nm700 nm 750 nm redvioletbluegreenyelloworange wavelength (nm) Low EnergyHigh Energy

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  When ions of certain elements are heated in a flame, each element gives off a specific color called the flame test color. Barium PotassiumLithiumCopper Calcium StrontiumSodium

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Road flares are a practical use of flame test colors.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Fireworks are a spectacular example of flame test colors.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  When materials are heated, they often begin to glow –  Incandescent light bulbs are a good example of this. – give off light!

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  The light from a glowing material can be studied by observing it with a spectroscope.  A spectroscope is an instrument that will separate light into its various wavelengths – thus into its various colors.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  After the spectroscope was invented in 1859, scientist began to use it to study glowing objects.  This is what scientists saw when looking at sunlight through a spectroscope:

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  This is what scientists saw in the spectro- scope when looking at glowing hydrogen gas:  This is what scientists saw in the spectro- scope when looking at glowing sodium vapor: 400 nm500 nm600 nm700 nm sodium 400 nm500 nm600 nm700 nm hydrogen

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  This is what scientists saw in the spectro- scope when looking at glowing mercury vapor:  This is what scientists saw in the spectro- scope when looking at glowing lithium vapor: 400 nm500 nm600 nm700 nm mercury 400 nm500 nm600 nm700 nm lithium

400 nm500 nm600 nm700 nm hydrogen Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Each element has its own unique pattern of colored lines called the bright-line spectrum.  An element’s bright-line spectrum is like a fingerprint In that the pattern of lines at specific wavelengths can be used to identify the presence of an element.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  When looking directly at the sun, scientists discovered a series of lines that did not correspond to any of the known elements!  A new element had been discovered! – helium

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Scientists called this new element helium because the Greek word for sun was helios.  At first, its was believed that helium was only found in the sun.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Helium was discovered on earth more than 20 years after it had been discovered in the sun!  Helium is much less dense than air and so it is used in party balloons and in blimps.

Flame Tests & Bright-Line Spectra  Every known element has its own unique bright-line spectrum.  For years it puzzled scientists why this was so.  Since each element is composed of unique atoms It must be the atoms!  How do the atoms of each element produce the element’s unique bright-line spectrum?
