Select all the following statements that are true concerning absorption and emission spectra. group of answer choices an emission spectrum is created when a sample of excited gas emits particular frequencies of light. an absorption spectrum is created when a sample of excited gas emits particular frequencies of light. for a particular element, its absorption and emission spectra show the same discrete line patterns. if the energy of the atom is increasing, then there must be an emission of light energy. conversely, if the energy of the atom is decreasing, then there must be an absorption of light energy.
