1) An emission spectrometer is an instrument that separates light emitted from a source as well as produces a spectrum, similar to the way the prism separated the light. Which kind spectra described in the Background Information continuous, emission, absorption would you expect to be produced while sunlight is directed through a spectrometer? Explain your answer.
