The colour of the positive column ina gas discharge tube depends on

A

the type of glass used to construct the tube

B

the gas in the tube

C

the applied voltage

D

the meterial of the cathode

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The colour of the positive coulum in a discharge tube depends on the type of gas e.g., for air, colour is purple red, for `H_(2)`, colour is blue etc.
