Answer:

The element that glows in signs is xenon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Xenon is a chemical element with the symbol Xe and atomic number 54. It is a colorless, dense, odorless noble gas found in Earth's atmosphere in trace amounts. Xenon is used in flash lamps, arc lamps, and as a general anesthetic. Xenon emits a blue or lavenderish glow when excited by electrical discharge, it emits a band of emission lines that span the visual spectrum, but the most intense lines occur in the region of blue light, producing the coloration.
