Question

Mercury vapour lamp gives (A) continuous spectrum (B) line spectrum (C) band spectrum (D) absorption spectrum

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

When electric discharge is passed through mercury vapour lamp, eight to ten lines from red to violet are seen in its spectrum. In some line spectra there are only a few lines, while in many of them there are hundreds of them. Hence, mercury vapour lamp gives line spectra.
