(A) atoms of each element are stable and emit characteristic spectrum.
(R) the spectrum provides useful information about the atomic structure.

A

if both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

if both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

if assertion is true but reason is false.

D

if both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Atoms of each element are stable and emit characteristic spectrum. The spectrum consists of a set of isolated parallel lines termed as line spectrum . It provides useful information about the atomic structure .
