Hey y'all,
question from AAMC 9 #32.
Which of the following statements could explain the frequently bluish color of EQLs?
A) Sodium salts are common in earth's crust, and sodium emissions can be quite bright.
B) In transparent substances, dispersion effects are in general greater for longer wavelengths.
C) The ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by molecules that then fluoresce at yet shorter wavelengths.
D) The ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by molecules that then fluoresce at yet longer wavelengths.
The correct answer is D and I don't quite understand AAMCs explanation. Can anybody help out?
