Atomic structure Flashcards
The mass of an electron is
negligible
Ways to separate isotopes:
Melting point
Boiling point
Rate of diffusion
Does violet light have a longer or shorter wavelength than red light?
shorter
Longer the wavelength, _____ the energy, and the _____ the frequency
lower, lower
More energy is released if the electron jumps a (bigger/smaller) distance
bigger
Energy levels are
concentric and convergent
What kind of energy is released if the electron jumps back to n=1?
UV
What kind of energy is released if the electron jumps back to n=2?
visible light
What kind of energy is released if the electron jumps back to n=3?
infrared
Where do the lines converge on the line spectra?
At high energy
The number of orbitals in a given energy level
n^2, where n is the energy level
How many electrons in an orbital?
2
The further away an orbital is from the nucleus, the ____ the energy
higher
Which orbital is furthest away from the nucleus?
f
What shape are s orbitals?
spherical
