Ck 12: Chemistry Simulation: Neon Lights

Curated by ACT

[Free Registration/Login Required] Neon lights are a type of discharge tube. Observe how electrons create colored light in a hydrogen gas discharge tube. Can you figure out why hydrogen's emission spectrum contains more than one color of light? Or can you figure out why hydrogen gas doesn't emit all the colors of light?
