What is the difference in the value of a certain atom’s Atomic Emission Wavelength and Absorption Wavelength?

What is the difference in the value of a certain atom’s Atomic Emission Wavelength and Atomic Absorption Wavelength?
Behold! Understanding Kirchoff’s laws brings great wisdom.
This "Stoke’s shift" mentioned by the next answerer sounds like a violation of the conservation of energy. But I can think of one way it might be true. If [...]

Where can I get data on the Internet on carbon dioxide concentration and emission?

I am studying Global Warming. I easily found a pretty good annual time series of global average temperatures going back to 1860. I am trying to do the same for two variables: 1) carbon dioxide concentration and 2) carbon dioxide emission. The best I found was annual data going back to 1956 [...]

How long before I have a nocturnal emission?

I’m a fundamentalist Christian and I have not masturbated in five days. I believe that it is a sin. My body is begging for a release. I’m very hopeful that I will ejaculate in my sleep very soon. What is the average length of time before I have a nocturnal emission?
Here’s a link for you.

Should a zero-emission vehicle driver still pay a toll which was instituted to reduce emissions in an area?

I heard a news story and the words of the mayor of New York City, Mike Bloomberg, that there would be a new toll for vehicles entering certain parts of the city on weekdays in an attempt to reduce emissions. Should a zero emission vehicle like the Tesla Roadster be held to the same [...]

What are the things you do that contributes to CO2 emission & what can you do about it to save our Earth?

What are the things you do that contributes to CO2 emission & what can you do about it to save our Earth?
Basicly, use less energy, unless it comes from a renewable resource, and plant more vegetation. Plants take out CO2 from the atmosphere.
Most fuel sources are from fossil fuels and nearly all put in more [...]

What is the "transition corresponding to the third line in the Lyman series of the hydrogen emission spectr?

I have to calculate the wavelength (in nm) of a photon emitted during a transition corresponding to the third line in the Lyman series (nf = 1) of the hydrogen emission spectrum.
I know how to solve problems like this, but I just need 1 more piece of information to solve this one.
What is ni ? [...]

Can someone please give me a brief overview of emission spectroscopy?

I am studying analytical techniques at the moment in senior chemistry and I am having trouble trying to understand emission spectroscopy. Information on chemical theory, its application and just a brief overview would really help. Please Help!
Neils Bohr advanced his theory of the atom as a miniature "solar system", where electrons orbit the nucleus like [...]

Do the emission/Absorbtion wavelengths of an atom change if electrons are ionized from it?

Do the emission/Absorbtion wavelengths of an atom change if electrons are ionized from it?
Yes. They change quite a bit. If you remove an electron, the orbital makeup changes, since the outermost electron is now a completely different electron! So if you pull an electron off of a Li atom, it will behave [...]

How do i make the RB26DETT meet the emission regulations in GA?

i would like to know how to do it and how much it will cost?
and if the requirements will interfere with the performance of the engine, because im planning to drop 5 grand for the engine and swaping it into mah 93′ 240sx coupe
and remember, im trying to make it meet the emission regulation of [...]

How cars make its emission good? please describe it as detail as possible. ?

I would like to know the principle of emission control.
EPA test machine
OBC 2 reader of codes
fix the bad codes if have them
if your engine check light is on they will not check car
