I've read a lot of articles about neutral nitrogen and its properties, but I was wondering if it was or has the same properties as nitrogen gas, N2? Like in regards to its emission/absorbtion spectrum, is it the same as the emission spectrum of N2 gas? thanks
When a photon has a wavelength close to the energy needed for an electron jump in an atom, the atom will absorb the photon. How close must the wavelength be to the energy required for the atom to still absorb it?
