The phenomenon in which certain elements emit invisible radiations is called:
- A
Spectroscopy
- B
Radioactivity
- C
Gravimetery
- D
Chromatography
Radioactivity is the phenomenon of the spontaneous disintegration of unstable atomic nuclei to atomic nuclei to form more energetically stable atomic nuclei. Radioactive decay is a highly exoergic, statistically random, first-order process that occurs with a small amount of mass being converted to energy. Spectroscopy is the study of the absorption and emission of light and other radiation by matter. Gravimetric analysis is a type of lab technique used to determine the mass or concentration of a substance by measuring a change in mass. chromatography, technique for separating the components, or solutes, of a mixture on the basis of the relative amounts of each solute distributed between a moving fluid stream, called the mobile phase, and a contiguous stationary phase.
Spectroscopy is the field of study that measures and interprets the electromagnetic spectra that result from the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and matter as a function of the wavelength or frequency of the radiation. hence incorrect

gravimetery is basically the measurement of weight. hence incorrect
chromatography is a laboratory technique for the separation of a mixture into its components, hence incorrect
