Problem: Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same and can be used to identify the element. B. The uncertainty principle states that we can never known both the exact location and speed of an electron. C. An orbital is the volume in which we are most likely to find an electron.D. Part of the Bohr model proposed that electrons in the hydrogen atom are located in "stationary states" or particular orbits around the nucleus. E. All of the above are true
FREE Expert Solution
We're being asked to determine which of the following statements is TRUE.
Let's check each given statement:
A. The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same and can be used to identify the element.
Atoms in an excited state → emit light when it returns back to the ground state
Series of colored lines are observed → emission spectrum
