Q

Double-Slit Diffraction experiment

A

showed a larger wave-like pattern. proved light is a wave. The light interfered with itself to result in the bending (diffraction) pattern.

22
Q

What is the photoelectric effect?

A

When you shine light on a metal surface, electrons are sometimes ejected

23
Q

Rydberg equation explanation

A

to find wavelengths of the line spectrum of HYDROGEN or to find energy levels and transitions of an atom

24
Q

Rydberg equation

A

1/λ = Rh/c (1/ni² - 1/nf²)

25
Q

observations of photoelectric effect

A
  • higher intensity(amplitude) light= more electrons ejected but same kinetic energy (KE is independent of intensity)
  • electrons can only be ejected once the light is above a threshold frequency
    -> higher energy (frequency) light = same number of electrons ejected but higher KE (linear relationship w KE and frequency)
26
Q

Rh value positive vs negative

A

+ during absorption
- during emission

27
Q

Bohr model

A

shows electrons orbiting the nucleus at different energy levels (n)

28
Q

How can an electron move from one energy level to another?

A

Photon must be give exact amount of energy to promote electron from one orbital to the next

29
Q

Einstein’s explanation 1905

A
  • light energy behaves like particles known as photons
    -work function is the energy it takes to escape the binding energy -> E of photon needs to be greater than the work function to accelerate off the atom
30
Q

Light emission

A

Moving from higher energy level to lower energy level (closer to nucleus) (ex. n=5 to n=2)

31
Q

Light Absorption

A

Moving from lower energy level to higher energy level (further away from nucleus) (ex. n=2 to n=4)

32
Q

principal quantum numbers

A

symbol: ‘n’
represents the energy of the ‘shell’
integers ≥ 1
(ex. 2s, n=2)

33
Q

Finding the energy of an electron equation

A

Energy of electron =
Efinal - Initial = hv = hc / λphoton

34
Q

angular momentum number (of wave function)

A

symbol: ‘l’
shape of orbital ‘sublevel’
0→n-1 (integers)
(ex. 2s, l=0 (s) )

35
Q

magnetic (of number)

A

symbol: Mι
orientation of orbital in space
-l→+l (integers, includes 0)
(ex. 2p: Mι= -1,0,+1

36
Q

Finding the energy of absorption/emission equation

A

Energy of absorption/emission =
hc/λphoton = +/- Rh Z² (1/nfinal² - 1/ninitial²)

37
Q

Spin of a orbital

A

symbol: Ms
‘spin’ of electron (it’s angular momentum), aligned along which axis, etc
±1/2

38
Q

How accurate was Bohr’s model?

A

Bohr correctly related energy levels to quantum numbers in his model (explaining absorption and emission of energy) but FAILED to model the position and radii of electron orbits or the energies of multi electron systems

39
Q

Pauli Exclusion Principle

A

“no electrons in an atom may have the same exact set of 4 QN’s simultaneously”

40
Q

Wave-Particle Duality of Light

A
  • Light behaves like a wave
    -> exhibits interference and diffraction
    -> has speed, wavelength, and frequency
    -> intensity is measured w amplitude

-Light behaves like a particle
-> photoelectric effect
-> energy of photon is proportional to its frequency

  • wave and particle nature of light are complementary properties
41
Q

Finding the energy of the orbit equation

A

Eorbit = -2.18 x 10⁻¹⁸J (1/n²)

42
Q

’s’ orbitals

A

l=0
Ml=0
spin=±1/2
typically spherical
has three axis, x, y, and z

43
Q

de Broglie

A

proposed that electrons are both particles and waves
lambda = h/mv
- velocity must be in m/s
- mass should be in kg

44
Q

‘p’ orbitals

A

l=1
Ml= -1,0,+1
spin=±1/2
three different planes: (i.e) 3px, 3py, 3pz

45
Q

‘d’ orbitals

A

l=2
Ml= -2,-1,0,+1,+2
spin=±1/2
five different planes: (i.e.) 4dxy, 4dxz, 4dyz, 4d(x^2-y^2), 4d(z^2)

46
Q

Heisenburg’s Uncertainty Principle

A
  • measuring position precisely interferes with velocity and vice versa
  • the product of the uncertainties must be at least h/4pi
47
Q

‘f’ orbitals

A

l=3
Ml= -3,-2,-1,0,+1,+2,+3
spin=±1/2
seven different planes: (not required to draw)

48
Q

Total nodes in an electron

A

n-1

49
Q

Radial Nodes

A

n-l-1 (l being the angular momentum number)

50
Q

Schrodinger’s cat

A
  • until you observe a system, all possibilities coexist
  • also known as observers effect
51
Q

How do the differences in energy levels change as you increase energy level?

A

From n=1 to n=2 is biggest change in energy, from n=2 to n=3 much smaller change in energy, n=3 to n=4 is even smaller change in energy, etc.

52
Q

Angular nodes

A

whatever l is
(ex. 2s: l=0, so there are 0 angular nodes in the orbital)

53
Q

Schrodinger vs Bohr

A
  • both try to describe the location and state of an atom’s electron
  • both describe the electrons in orbit (schrodinger says they are waves in orbit though)
  • both predict the same energy levels for hydrogen
