Q

what are continuum , emission , absorption line spectrum

A
  • Absorving a light spectrum we will find continuum spectrum
    ( mad of a continuos range of wavelengh )
  • Emission line spectrume: a bright spectrum lines against a dark background ,
    It can be produced by a hot gas
  • Absorption line spectrume: absorving stars on earth, the exact opposite of the emission spectrum , the frequency is misssing

Q

why do we use line spectrums for gas elements ?

A

to help us know the position of the electrons

hydrogen Line Spectrum Contains Only a Few Discrete Wavelengths

Q

electrons orbit in nucleus have certain “allowed” orbits - or energy levels.

That is, the electron’s energy is QUANTIZED (not continuous)

Q

Different orbitals have different shapes.

what are the shapes of each type of orbital

A
  • Orbitals in (s) subshells are (spherical)
  • orbitals in (p) subshells are roughly (pinot)
  • orbitals in (d) subshells are roughly (Dimond)
  • orbitals in (f) subshells are roughly (flower)

  • orbitals in (d) subshells are roughly (Dimond)
  • orbitals in (f) subshells are roughly (flower)
17
Q

The 2 Electrons in the orbitals are spinning in oppisite directions

A
18
Q

Electron Configuration:

A

arrangement of electrons in atom’s shells and subshells

19
Q

Rules to predict electron configuration

A
  • Electrons occupy the lowest-energy orbitals available, beginning with 1s and continuing
  • Each orbital can hold only two electrons, which must be spinning oppositely .
  • Two or more orbitals with the same energy – each orbital gets one electron before any orbital gets two.
20
Q

Abbreviated Electron Configuration

A

is shorten of electron configuration

21
Q

Valence Shell :

A

Outermost shell of an atom.

22
Q

Valence electrons:

A

An electron in an outermost shell of an atom. These electrons are loosely held, they are most important in determining an element’s properties.

23
Q

Octet Rule:

A

is used to predict chemical reactivity

24
Q

soelectronic:

A

Atoms, ions, or molecules which have an equal number of valence electrons and the same atom connectivity.

25
Q

The cation is smaller than the parrent atom

A

because cation lose electrons

26
Q

The anion is bigger than the parrent

A

because it gain electrons
