This means that elements in the same ____________ group have similar properties.
Examples: (1) Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs all have __ lone “__” e- for their last orbital... (_____, _____, _____, etc.) This makes all of them ___________ reactive. They all react with __________ to produce hydrogen gas.

21. How Light is Produced
When atoms get hit with energy (by _____________ them with electricity or by ____________ them up), the electrons absorb this energy and __________ to a higher energy level. Figure (a)
As they immediately fall back down to the “____________ state”, they give off this energy in the form of a particle of ___________ (or other types of electromagnetic radiation) called a _____________. Figure (b)
zapping
heating
jump
ground
light
photon

22. How Light is Produced
Each photon emitted has a specific ___________ (or frequency).
The color of the light that is given off depends on how _____ the electron _______ (which depends on how big of a jump it originally made.) The farther the fall, the ___________ energy the photon has.
color
far
fell
greater

23. How Light is Produced energy
Since electrons are located only in certain __________ levels (or orbitals) around the nucleus, only certain specific _________ of light are emitted.
Scientists use a _________________ to separate these colors into bands of light. These bands of color look like a ______ code of color which is characteristic of that element. No two elements produce the same ______________ of colors. This can be used to distinguish one element from another contained in a sample. (See Fig )
