This transition creates a frequency which corresponds to the color of the metal.
Group one and two metal salts or compounds do not have color because all of their energy levels are full, not allowing for the electron transition to be made, therefore no frequency is emitted and no color is perceived.]]> 2018-03-12 07:01:56 UTC https://padlet.com/1mlinben/9yyt4pg8zmtr/wish/240707305
