$\huge\mathcal\red{HERE'S YOUR ANSWER }$

each element exhibit s its own characteristic colour no two elements emits same colour spectra hence the spectrum of elements is similar to finger prints.with this property we can identify different elements

Answer 2

The spectrum of a specific element is similar to a signature or a fingerprint, because -

• The spectrum of different elements are completely different from each other because the arrangement of electron energy levels are unique for every elements present in the modern periodic table.

• That's why,each of the elements have their own specific spectrum which we can use to identify the element.

• This specific spectrums are similar to the fingerprint or signature of us,due to specificity for each individual and can be used for identification also.
