Calculation of Atomic Mass |
Example exercise 5.3 |
Light travels at a constant speed in a vacuum. The velocity of light is constant, as all wavelengths and frequencies travel at 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. Frequency: refers to the number of wave cycles completed in each second. Wavelength: refer to the distance the light travels to complete one cycle. The term light usually refers to radiant energy that is visible.What we orinarily observe as white light is actually several colors of light mixed together. When white light passes through a glass prism, it separates into all the colors of the rainbow, that is, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. |

Bohr Model of the Hydrogen Atom: The electron is a specific distance from the nucleus and occupies an orbit of discrete energy. According to the Bohr model, the electron is found only in a given energy level.
Hydrogen Emission Spectrum: An emission line spectrum is produced when hydrogen gas is excited by an electrical voltage. After the emitted light is passed through a prism, three discrete vivid lines are odserved.
Spectral Lines and Energy Levels in Hydrogen: When an eletron drops from energy level 5 to 2, a violet photon is released. When an electron drops from level 4 to 2, a blue-green photon is released; from level 3 to 2, a red photon is released. A visible spectral line corresponds to a large number of identical photons. |

A cross section of an Atom: The first energy level has one sublevel (1s). the second energy level has two sublevels (2s and 2p). the third energy level has three sublevels(3s, 3p, and 3d). Although the diagram suggests electrons travel in circular orbits, this is a simplification and is not actually the case.

To find the maximum number of electrons in a main energy level: we add up the electrons in each sublevel. The first energy level has one s sublewvel; it can contain only 2e-. The second major energy level has two sublevels, 2s and 2p. the 2s can hold 2e- and the 2p can hold 6e-. Thus, the second energy level can hold a maximum of 8e-. |

Eletron Configuration: Use the atomic number of the element combine with the distribution of electrons by energy level to write the configuration of an electron. |
