Exam 1 Flashcards
Law of Definite proportions
a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio and does not depend on its source and method of preparation.
Law of multiple proportions
same pair of elements form more than one compound
Modern atomic theory
Law of conservation of mass
in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed
Daltons Atomic theory
each element is composed of tiny indestructible particles
all atoms of a given element have the same mass and other properties
Discovery of electron
Late 1800s JJ Thompson
cathode ray tube
Milikan oil drop experiment
By comparing applied electric force with changes in the motion of the oil drops, he was able to determine the electric charge on each drop.
Nuclear theory
- most of the atoms mass and all of its positive charge were contained in a small core called nucleus
- most of the volume of the atom is empty space, throughout which tiny negatively charged e- are dispersed
- there are as many protons as e-, so that is neutral
Isotopes
different number of neutrons
cation
Positive ion
anion
negative ion
wavelength
distance between 2 consecutive peaks or troughs
frequency
of waves that pass a given point in a space per second
energy scale
gamma -highest
radio - lowest
frequency + wavelength
inverse
energy + wavelength
inverse
frequency + energy
direct
photoelectric effect
e- are emitted from the surface of a metal when light strikes it
Bohr model
the electrons in the H atom moves around the nucleus only in certain allowed circular orbits
quantized
only certain orbits allowed
n
size and energy
- quantum number
L
angular momentum
shape
emission
down arrow
absorption
up arrow
ml
magnetic quantum number
orbital orientaion
ms
spin quantum number
1/2,-1/2
pauli exclusion principle
in a given atom no two electrons can have the same set of four quantum numbers
Hunds Rule
the lowest energy configuration of an atom is the one having the maximum number of unpaired electrons allowed by the pauli principle in aparticular set of deregulate orbitals
