Chapter 4 Flashcards
Wave length
Length of a wave
Sublevels
S,D,F, P
Orbitals
Area where electrons are found
Amplitude
Distance of a wave from the midpoint to the bottom of the trough.
Abbreviated Electron Configuration
Shortened version of electron configuration
Frequency
Number of wave lengths that pass a given point in a given amount of time.
Uncertainty Principle
It is impossible to predict the position or momentum of a moving object.
Ground state
State below energy level 1
Electron configuration
Configuration using level, sun level, number of electrons.
Quantum Mechanic Model
New model developed by Heisneburg, Planke, and Pauli,
Excited State
First State of electron configuration
Orbital Diagram
Actual picture of electron configuration
Quantum
Unit of energy measured or absorb per electron group
Quantum Number
Number assigned to each orbit
