1b + 2b Flashcards
F = ma meaning equation
net force = mass x acceleration
when we hit a ball we know the balls
momentum and position in the air
if we know amts position and momentum we can say we know its
trajectory!!
the lines that guess where an object is gonna fall!!
H Y = EY is the
schrodinger wave equation!!
bc an e- is so small, what does it not have and what does it have
bc its so small it doesnt have a trajectory
we say an e- has a wavefunction!
think of a wave when u shoot one out a gun,, think water ripples etc
increase in frequency means what in terms of energy
an increase in energy
theyre proportional!!
E=hvn meaning
energy of ‘n’ photons
h = planks constant
v = frequency
normally E=hv only gives the energy of 1 photon of light.
brighter light means whattt,, in terms of photons and energy
a brighter light means there are more photons
but each photon still has the original energy!!
aka the energy of the photon doesnt change and increase when the light gets brighter,, u just get more photons.
what does E=hv mean
it means energy is quantised
meaning its not random
how do we know energy in an atom is also quantised?
H2(g) + spark gives 2H+(g)
and this relaxes to give 2H(g)
when it relaxes,, it gives out a photon of light. THIS IS EMISSION SPEC,, WE CAN SEE ENERGY BETWEEN DIFF ENERGY LEVELS: needs to equal the gap to be absorbed and given back out.
rhydberg equation shows how energy levels are quantised,, what the equation
v = Rh (1/n.small.2 - 1/n.big.2)
what did bohr suggest
he suggested that there are orbits around the nuc and these are where e- stay.
he basically said they have a trajectory.
each orbit has a ‘quantum number’ = n
larger n = further from nuc
what did bohr suggest about energy
that energy is proportional to 1/n2
where n is the principle quantum number
bigger n = further from nucleus.
what is the bohr model limited to
it’s limited to H only
bc other atoms have multiple electrons which alter the amount of Z felt by the outer electrons
electrons have
wave particle duality
what did de broglie say
he said that all particles have a wavelength !!
wavelength = in terms of debrogles
h/mv
planks / mass x velocity. !!!
classical and quantum evidence for e- having wave particle duality
classical = real world = e- shot at Ni bounced off it
quantum = physics = e- bounced off like a wave : kinda ripples coming off the square drawing
a detector detected where the e- ended up.
the fact that when shot at Ni ,, e- bounced off like a wave,, tells us what
that they have wave particle duality.
that they can be diffracted,, like a wave.
like light forming a rainbow 🌈! and light is a wave.
taking the e- bouncing off the Ni as a wave,, what can we plot
we can plot E(or probability) against angle (theta)
which gives us a bunch of hills that increase at the middle then decrease.
the peaks = where there’s lots of e- at that angle
troughs = no e- at that angle
it confirms that wavelength = planks / mass and velocity.
proves bohr wrong = e- do acc behave as waves.
we can use the probability + angle graph to find the wavelength
units for the wavelength = planks / mv
planks = js
mass = kg
v = m/s
wavelength of a 1 kg brick going 10m/s
wavelength of an e- going 10^4 m/s
h/1 x 10 = wavelength = (6.6x10-35)
h/(9.1x10^-31)(1x10^4) = wavelength = (7.3x10^-8)
the electron has a much larger wavelength!! due to its small masssss
why do larger objects have a small wavelength
bc there’s a large difference between planks and it’s mass
why do smaller objects have a greater wavelength
bc their mass and planks constant are similar
