how to count wavelengths on the spectrum
go by how many lines there are
photoelectric effect
when electromagnetic radiation strikes the surface of a metal, ejecting electrons from the metal’s surface
principal quantum number
(n) indicates the main energy level occupied by an electron
angular momentum quantum number
(l) indicates the shape of the orbital
magnetic quantum number
(m sub l) indicates the orientation of an orbital around the nucleus
spin quantum number
(m sub s) indicates the two fundamental spin states of an electron in an orbital
what did Albert Einstein propose?
