Question # 1

What do we mean when we say that the atom is excited?

Ans 1: When energy from some external source is provide to an atom in its normal state,then its electron will jump from lower energy state to higher energy state.And atom is said to be excited.

Question # 2

Define population inversion and metastable stable.

Ans 1: A condition of matter in which more electrons are in a high energy state than in a lower energy state is called population inversion.
A particular excited state of an atom that has longer lifetime than the ordinary excited states is called metastable state.

Question # 3

Question # 4

What is meant by line spectrum? How line spectrum can be used for the identification of elements?

Ans 1: When an electron jumps from higher energy state to lower energy state than emits energy and make a spectral line.
E₂- E₁_=hf
_{This is called line spectrum.And different elements emit line spectrum of different wavelengths,So they can be identifiedeasily.}
