Exam 1 Review Flashcards
matter
that which has mass and volume
law of conservation of mass
mass is neither created or destroyed in a normal chemical rxn
law of definite proportions
all samples of a pure compound have the same proportions by mass of their constituent elements
law of multiple proportions
when atoms of 2 elements combine to make 2 different compounds, the mass of the element A that combine with B in the 2 can be expressed as a ratio of small whole numbers
extensive property
depends on amount
intensive property
independent of amount

Cathode ray experiment
discovers electron, negative charge, and charge to mass ratio
Oil drop experiment
measured the strength of E-field necessary to halt the free fall oil droplets deducing the charge of an electron and thus the mass
Gold foil experiment
alpha particles passed through gold foil, most went straight though, some deflected, evidence for nuclear theory of the atom
nuclear theory of the atom
-most of atom’s mass and all its positive charge are in a dense region called nucleus
frequency equation
f=c/wavelength
KE of ejected electron
Ephoton - Ebinding
Ephoton
hf
de broglie wavelength
a moving e- has a wavelength = h/mv
Heinsberg Uncertainty
we cannot simultaneously observe the wave and particle nature of electrons, the act of observation forced the electron into one state or another. (uncertainty in position)(m*uncertainty in velocity) >= h/4pi
indeterminancy
the present doe not determine the future; one can only know probability of finding electron in a certain region
principle quantum number (n)
overall size and energy level of an orbital, n=1,2,3,…
angular momentum quantum number (l)
determines the shape of the orbital, l=0…(n-1).
l=0
s
l=1
p
l=2
d
l=3
f
magnetic quantum number(ml)
specifies orientation of orbital, ml = -l to +l (integers)
spin quantum number (ms)
ms= -1/2 or +1/2
group 1a
alkali earth metals
group 2a
alkaline earth metals
