Emission Spectra and Orbitals Flashcards
concept of energy quanta comes from
the experiments emission spectra of hydrogen
Excited atoms emit
light of only certain wavelength
wavelengths of emitted light depend on the e..
element
visible series of lines called-
Balmers series
scientist who did experiment on hydrogen
bohr
Electrons can only exist in
discrete orbits / stationary states/quantized energy states
energy state of an atom=
- R/n^2
sharp line spectra = evidence for //// ////
energy levels
calculation of 🔺E
understood?
Problems with bohr’s theory
• theory only /////// for H
• introduced quantum idea ///////
succesful, artifcially
orbitals & e-configurations
understood
each orbital
no more than 2 electrons!
Diamagnetic is not .
attracted to a magnetic field
Paramagnetic:
substance is attracted to a magnetic field
Substances with unpaired electrons
paramagnetic
