Energy and Development of Bohr Model & the Quantum Model Flashcards
Photoelectric Effect:
emission of e- from a metal when light shines on it
Diff between red light and violet light?
Red light did not eject e- from metal and Violet ejects e- right away
What happens if incoming light is not at a high enough energy?
electrons will not be ejected
What did Max planck propose?
that light does not emit electromagnetic energy like wave but in small “packets” of energy called quanta
Quantum of energy:
minimum amount of energy that can be lost/ gained by an atom
If there is enough energy…
electron is ejected at certain frequency (gives off color)
Energy formula:
E=hv
E(energy (J -joules)
h(plancks constant) -6.626x E-34 JxS
v (frequency (Hz)) - 1/s
what did Albert Einstein propose?
that electromagnetic radiation has a dual wave-particle nature
Photon:
particle of electromagnetic radiation haveing 0 mass + carrying quantum of energy
Light-emission spectrum:
bands of light
according to bohrs model, the e- …
can only circle nucleus in orbits w/ nothing in between
Ground state:
atom exists at lowest energy level
Excited state:
atoms absorb energy - electrons move from low energy level to a higher level
Electrons emit energy at a frequency…
= to energy absorbed, and return to ground state
Continuous Spectra: (white light)
continuously emitted lines of all colors
