AP Chemistry Atomic Structure

The lines in the emission spectrum of hydrogen result from

•  electrons given off by hydrogen as it cools
• energy given off (visible light) when an e- moves from high to a low energy state
• protons given off when hydrogen burns
• electrons given off by hydrogen when it burns
