question

? - lambda

 

What does this symbol stand for and define it

answer

Wavelength

 

shortest distance between two equivalent points on a continuous wave in meters, centimeters or nanometers

question

? - nu

 

What does this symbol stand for and define it

 

 

answer

Frequency

 

Number of waves that pass a point per second measured in hertz

question

C

 

What does this symbol stand for and define it


what is the complete formula for determining C

answer

Speed of Light Constant

C-= 3.00 x 108

 

C=??

Speed of Light Constant = Wavelength x Frequency

question
The distance from the origin of one wave to its crest
answer
Amplitude
question
Which wave lengths bend more?
answer

Shorter wave lengths (higher frequencies) bend more

 

[image]

 

Red has a longer wavelength (shorter frequency) and therefore bends the least.

question
What are the wavelengths of visible light?
answer

400 nanometers to 700 nanometers

answer

Roy G Biv

 

Red

Orange

Yellow

Green

question
quantum
answer
Minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom
question
Formula for energy as a function of wave frequency
answer

Plank's Constant h=6.626 x10-34

 

Equantum=h?

 

As frequency increases energy increases

question
Photon
answer
A particle of electromagnetic radiation with no mass that carries a quantum of energy
question
Photoelectric effect
answer
electrons from a metal are emitted when a certain frequency shines on the surface
question
Ground State
answer
Lowest allowable energy state of an atom
question
?E=Ehigher orbit - Elower orbit
answer

Formula for Orbital energy released when an electron drops from one orbital to another.

 

 

 

Lyman Series - Ultraviolet light (low frequency) emitted when electron drops to 1st orbital

 

Balmer Series:  Visible light emitted when electron drops to 2nd orbital

 

Paschen Series - Infrared light (high frequency) emitted when electron drops to 3rd orbital

question
De Broglie theory
answer
All moving particles have wave characteristics (emit light) but wavelength is inversely proportional to mass so large objects wavelength is too low to see.
question
Heisenberg Uncertainity Principle
answer
It is fundamentally impossible to know precisely both the velocity and position of a particle at the same time.
question
boundary of an atom
answer
Volume that encloses 90% probability of containing its electrons
question
Quantum Mechanical Model of the Atom
answer
Atomic model in which electrons are treated as waves
question
Principal Quantum Numbers (n)
answer
Indicate the relative sizes and energy of atomic orbitals
question
Aufbau Principle ; Diagram
answer

Aufbau  (from the German Aufbau meaning "building up, construction")

 

Each electron occupies the lowest energy orbital available.

question
Pauli Exclusion
answer
Each electron has an associated spin.  A single atomic orbital may contain 2 electrons but they must spin in opposite directions
question
Hunds Rule
answer

Single Electrons with the same spin must occupy each equal energy orbital before additional electrons with opposite spin can occupy the same orbitals.

question
electron Configuration Notation
answer
The electron configuration of an atom is the particular distribution of electrons among available shells. It is described by a notation that lists the subshell symbols, one after another. Each symbol has a subscript on the right giving the number of electrons in that subshell. For example, a configuration of the lithium atom (atomic number 3) with two electrons in the 1s subshell and one electron in the 2s subshell is written 1s22s1.
question

What element is represented by the electron configuratoin notation 

 

1s22s22p2

answer
Carbon -- 6 electrons
question

What element is represented by the electron configuratoin notation 

 

[Ne]3s1

answer

Sodium

 

To use this shortcut it is necessary to know the noble gas number of electrons.  Since only the outside electrons are reactive and all the inside electrons represented by the noble gas that is before the element are non-reactive - it is more important to know about the valence electrons.

 

In this case there is 1 valence electron

question
