Emission spectra

Absorption spectra

It is used in determining the composition of matter.

It is also used in determining the composition of matter.

It is used a light source and spectrophotometer.

It also used a light source and spectrophotometer.

It measures the wavelength of the emitted light after the atoms are excited with heat.

The absorption spectra measures the wavelength absorbed by the atom
