Answer 2

Metallopeptides

Question 3

What colors are in the emission spectrum of ‘white light’?

Answer 3

All the colors (continuum spectrum)

Question 4

What happens to the spectrum when white light is passed through cold gass?

Answer 4

Becomes an absorption spectrum

Question 5

What does the Balmer Equation tells us?

Answer 5

Empirical wavelengths of H spectrum

Question 6

Planck Photons Energy equation

Answer 6

E=hv

Question 7

Bohr’s energy equation works for only which atom?

Answer 7

Hydrogen

Question 8

What is the energy for n=1 energy level of Hydrogen?

Answer 8

-13.6eV

Question 9

What is the Ionization Energy?

Answer 9

The energy needed to remove electrons in relation to the energy levels

Question 10

What is the equation for the electron energy of Hydrogen (Bohr’s equation)?

Answer 10

E=-13.6eV/n^2

Question 11

What is the Zeeman effect?

Answer 11

When a magnet is around an atom, the jump from the s to p orbital breaks into 3 bands representing the three p sub-orbitals

Question 12

What are the l values for the orbitals s, p, d, …?

Answer 12

0, 1, 2, … respectively

Question 13

What is Pauli’s Principle?

Answer 13

No two electrons in one atom can have the same 4 quantum numbers

Question 14

What is the Aufbau Principle?

Answer 14

Lowest energy orbitals get filled up first

Question 15

What is Hund’s Principle?

Answer 15

All subshells must be filled with single electrons before pairing them up

Question 16

How do you calculate the Effective Charge?

Answer 16

Zeff=Z-S (Atomic Number-Shielding)

Question 17

When calculating the Shielding, how do you know is you should use the ‘red’ or ‘green’ scale?

Answer 17

Depends on whether the last electron is in an s/p of d/f orbital. *Note: you DON’T count the electron you’re measuring from that last orbital.

Question 18

There is a big jump in Ionization Energy when trying to remove an electron from a new shell/full shell.

Answer 18

True
