MCQ
Mark the correct option of source which is associated with a line emission spectrum:
  • A
    Electric Fire
  • B
    Neon street sign
  • C
    Red traffic light
  • D
    Sun

Answer

  1. Neon street sign

Explanation:

Neon lighting consists of brightly glowing, electrified glass tubes or bulbs that contain rarefied neon or other gases.

Neon lights are a type of cold cathode gas-discharge light.

Hence neon street sign are associated with line emission spectrum.
