Visible/UV emission spectroscopy can be used to identify the presence of elements in an unknown sample. Some characteristic wavelengths of common elements are shown below: Ag: 328.1 nm Fe: 372.0 nm Au: 267.6 nm K: 404.7 nm Ba: 455.4 nm Mg: 285.2 nm Ca: 422.7 nm Na: 589.6 nm Cu: 324.8 nm Ni: 341.5 nm If an unknown sample is burned and emits light with a frequency of 5.088 x 1014 Hz, which element above is most likely present in the sample?
