Chapter 5, Problem 38A
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Light emitted from neon sign is differ from sunlight to be explained.

Concept introduction:

True neon signs are glow with red-orange colour. Neon sign has also come to perform collection of gas tubes that contain gases that display other colors.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 38A

Neon light has certain visible colour but sunlight has all visible colour.

Explanation of Solution

Sunlight has all the colours of spectrum whereas neon light has few or certain visible colours. Highly unreactive group 18 elements are usually termed as noble gases and are used in neon signs.

Conclusion

Light of neon sign is created by passing electricity through a tube filled with neon gas.
