Q

What is an atomic mass unit

A

1/12 the mass of a carbon atom with six neutrons and six protons

25
How is the periodic table organized?
Period (row) and group (column)
26
Define isotope
Atoms with same # of protons but differing neutrons
27
What is when there are a certain percentage of each isotope naturally found on earth
Natural abundance
28
What is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom
Mass number
29
What does Avogadro’s constant show?
The number of atoms in one mole of a substance
30
What is mass number on periodic table?
Mass in grams of one mole of x element
31
Define literally mole
The number of atoms in C-12 (Avogadro number)
32
Length between two crests
Wavelength
33
Different amplitude =
Different brightness
34
Different wavelength =
different colors
35
What is the photoelectric effect?`
Observation that metals emit electrons when light shines upon them
36
Why does photoelectric effect happen?
Metal absorbs electron from light and electron from the metal is lost
37
What type of energy does the electron from the light have to exceed to break away one from the metal?
Binding energy
38
Define proton
Quantum of light
39
What is the series of bright lines produced as a result of a prism , and how work
Emission spectrum, sees wavelengths emitted by the substance
40
What is an absorption spectrum and how work?
Dark lines on a bright background, only accepts white light and see which wavelengths are missing
41
ABSORPTION SEES _____ light, EMISSION SEES _____ light
ABSORBTION white, emISSION = specific
42
When emission happens, the electron...
drops an energy level
43
What is emission?
When an atom gives off a photon
44
What is a degenrate?
All orbitals at the same energy level
45
What is a subshell?
Orbitals with the same energy level
46
What is a subshell?
Orbitals with the same energy level
47
How to know if an electron configuration is ground state?
Electrons cannot be transferred to lower energy levels
48
What is excited state?
Electron is temporarily in a energy than ground state
49
Subshell count relates to
Energy level
50
