A star emits light with a peak wavelength of 9,750 angstroms. What type of star is this and what is its color? Major stellar spectral types and temperatures Type Color Temperature (K) Comment O Bluish 30,000-80,000 Spectrum with ionized helium and hydrogen but little else; short-lived and rare stars B Bluish 10,000-30,000 Spectrum with neutral helium, none ionized A Bluish 7,500-10,000Spectrum with no helium, strongest hydrogen, some magnesium and calcium F White 6,000-7,500 Spectrum with lonized calcium, magnesium, neutral atoms of iron G Yellow 5,000-6,000 The spectral type of the sun. Spectrum shows 67 elements in the sun K Orange-red 3,500-5,000Spectrum packed with lines from neutral metals M Reddish 2,000-3,500 Band spectrum of molecules e-g, titanium oxide; other related spectral types (R, N, and S) are based on other molecules present in each spectral type Referring to the table above, this would be a (select) star that is (select) in color.
