a) The effect of the light over valence electrons

It’s called “The photoelectric effect”, is the emission of electrons from a material when it is incident by an electromagnetic radiation (visible or ultraviolet light in general)

b) What is an emission spectrum?

An emission spectrum is the electromagnetic radiation (EMR), such as visible light, a substance emits. Every element gives off a unique fingerprint of light, so analyzing the frequencies of this light helps identify the chemical that generated it. This procedure is called emission spectroscopy and is a very useful scientific tool.
