Electron Configuration

Question 0

The state when all electrons of an atom are in the lowest possible energy level

Answer 0

Ground state

Question 1

A packet of light energy that carries a quantum of energy

Answer 1

Photon

Question 2

When an electron jumps to a higher energy level, the atom is in…

Answer 2

Excited state

Question 3

Theory that is impossible to know both position and speed of an electron simultaneously

Answer 3

Heisenberg Uncertainty

Question 4

Theory that no two electrons in an atom can share the same 4 quantum numbers

Answer 4

Pauli Exclusion

Question 5

Theory that elections fill lowest energy orbitals firsts

Answer 5

Augbau Process

Question 6

Theory that, within a sub shell, electrons prefer to occult their own orbital

Answer 6

Hund’s Rule

Question 7

A term describing the other most electrons in an atom

Answer 7

Valence Electrons

Question 8

Positive charged ion

Answer 8

Cation

Question 9

Negatively charged ion

Answer 9

Anion

Question 10

Most stable type of electron configuration

Answer 10

Noble Gases

Question 11

Region in space where an electron is likely to exist

Answer 11

Atomic Orbital

Question 12

Red Light

Answer 12

Low Freq, Low Energy, but Long Wavelength

Question 13

Violet

Answer 13

High frequency, high energy, short wavelength

Question 14

Radio Waves VS X-ray

Answer 14

RW: LOW ENERGY 
LONG WAVELENGTH
LOW FREQUENCY
X-RAYS: HIGH ENERGY
SHORT WAVELENGTH 
HIGH FREQUENCY

Question 15

How are atomic emission spectra generated?

Answer 15

1. Electron is in ground state, energy is added
   2 electron moves to higher energy level (aka Excited state)
2. Electron goes back down to ground state and loses Energy. Energy corresponds to certain wavelength and color

Question 16

Bohr’s Model

Answer 16

Electrons orbit the nucleus

Only works for hydrogen atom

Further from nucleus means higher energy level

Question 17

Quantum Mechanical Model

Answer 17

Small, positive, tight, and dense nucleus

Surrounded by electrons in orbitals

Question 18

Frequency

Answer 18

of wave cycles that pass a given point per unit time

Question 19

Wavelength

Answer 19

Distance between crests

Question 20

Amplitude

Answer 20

Height from zero to crest

Question 21

Color has most energy?

Answer 21

Violet
