question 116

Multiple Choice

What is the relationship between the light emitted by an atom and the energies of the electrons in the atom?

• A)The larger the atom,the greater the number of electrons and therefore the greater the frequency of a light.
• B)The energies of the electrons of an atom are directly proportional to the wavelength of light emitted and therefore inversely proportional to the frequency of the light emitted.
• C)The greater the frequency of a photon of light,the greater the energy packed into that photon.
• D)The light emitted by an atom is a function of its nuclear density and its ability to absorb and reflect various wavelengths of light from the electromagnetic spectrum.
