CHEM 1320 Exam 1 Flashcards
law of conservation of mass
sum of mass of reactants = sum mass of products
law of definite proportions
consistent with all atoms of one element are identical.
law of multiple proportions
if you double the proportions you won’t have the same out come as a single proportion
dalton’s atomic theory
1) matter is made of tiny indivisible and indestructible atoms.(conservation of mass)
2) atoms of same elements may combine in more than one ration to form 2 or more compounds(multiple proportions)
3) atoms of different elements may combine with each other in a fixed simple whole number ratios to form compounds(definite proportions)
4) all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties and different from other elements(incorrect)
medeleave
organized the periodic table
JJ Thompson
use cathode rays to prove that there are sub-atomic particles. (charge to mass ratio)
Miliken
oil drops experiment to show how measure the mass of an electron.
Rutherford
gold foil experiment
showed that atoms have small dense nuclei
electron
e-, light, negatively charged,
proton
p+, massive, pos charged
neutron
n, no charge, neutral
ions
when the same element has a different number of electrons
isotopes
when an atom has a different amount of neutrons
allotropes
when and element has different chemical forms (ex. carbon)
wavelength
distance between crests
units=nanometers(nm)
decides color
amplitude
measurement from line to crest
determine brightness
frequency
number of cycles that pass through a stationary point in a given time
units=hertz
how wavelength and frequency relate
as wavelength gets bigger frequency gets smaller
