Chem final- exam 1 ch2 Flashcards
Calculate wavelength, frequency, energy
E =hv -KNOW VELOCITY
E = hc/ lamda -KNOW WAVELENGHT
E= energy (J)
h= planks constant (Js)
lamda = wavelength (nm or m)
c = speed of light (m/s)
v= frequency (hz)
Planks constant
6.626 * 10^-34 Js
Speed of light
2.998 * 10^8 m/s
Frequency equation
v =c/lamda
Wavelength of waves
-Distance between 2 executive crests
Frequency of waves
-Number of wave cycles that pass a point in 1 second
Wavelength, frequency, and energy relationship
-Wavelength down
-Frequency up
-Energy up
Wavelength colors
-Red: 750nm (safe)
-Blue: 400nm (unsafe)
Order of electromagnetic spectrum safe to unsafe
-Radio/tv: 700nm
-Microwaves radar
-Infrared rays
-Visible
-Ultraviolet
-X rays
-Gamma rays: 400nm
Wave particle duality
Light exhibits wave like and particle like properties
Photoelectric effect
-Light shining on a metal surface ejectors an electron
Rydberg Balmer equation
1/lamda = R (1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2)
n= 3,4,5,6
GIVES m THEN HAS TO CONVERT TO nm
UV light catastrophe
-Something cant have infinite energy
-Energy comes in discrete amounts (Plank)
Higher n numbers
-Lower energy change
Bohr model
-Shells 1,2,3…
-Wrong bc electrons exist in clouds
