CCP Chemistry 121, Brauner Test 2 Flashcards
What is the speed of light?
C = 3.0x108 m/s
What is Planck’s constant?
h = 6.626x10-34 J·s
What is Avagadro’s number?
N = 6.022x1023 /mol
What is a wavelength?
λ = the distance between two successive corresponding points
c = ****λ · **v
λ = c / **v
c = **↑λ · ↓v**
Ionization Energy
energy requried to remove 1 e-
Emission
The release of radiation when an e` goes from a higher energy state to a lower energy state
Energy
Ability to do work
Potential Energy
energy associated with matter due to it’s position
Kinetic Energy
energy associated with a body in motion
Velocity
V=distance/time
Frequency
“nu”, Number of ocillations/seconds
Charge of an electron
1.6x10^-19 Coulombs
Absorption
The use of radiation to promote an e` from a lower energy state to a higher energy state.
Ocillating electric charges…
…produce an electromagnetic wave.
Alternating current
the flow of electric charge periodically reverses direction
Direct Current
the flow of electric charge goes in one direction
Alpha Partical
+2He 2+
Helium nucleus
Beta Particle
e~
(negative charge)
Gamma Particle
**Photon - **
neutral charge
highest energy
Powers of 10
Moving decimal to the left?
Positive exponent.
Moving decimal to the right?
⇒Negative exponent.
K.E. =
K.E.=1/2mv2
Electrochemistry
A branch of physical chemistry that studies chemical reactions at the interface of an electrode and an ionic conductor.
Planck/Einstein Equation
l change in E I = hc/wavelength
