Answer:

ncandescent solids emit continuous spectra; incandescent gases emit bright-line spectra.

Explanation:

Materials when heated emit a continuous spectrum with all wavelengths.

Hot gas gases emit a spectrum that depends on the transitions between atomic states, therefore it is a discrete spectrum.

When reviewing the answers, the correct one is:

ncandescent solids emit continuous spectra; incandescent gases emit bright-line spectra.
