FINAL - SECTION 1 Flashcards
zA Z P
A = atomic mass
Z = atomic symbol
P = number of protons
Frequency (v)
Number of cycles per second (s-1)
Wavelength (λ)
Distance wave travels in 1 cycle (nm)
Amplitude
Height of crest of wave
Relationship between frequency and wavelength
Inversely proportional (small freq = big wavelength, big freq = small wavelength)
Rank electromagnetic spectrum from lowest energy (big wavelength) to high energy (small wavelength)
- Radio (10^5-10^-1)
- Microwave (10^-1-10^-3)
- Infrared (10^-3-10^-6)
- Visible light (10^-6-10^-7)
- UV (10^-7-10^-9)
- X ray (10^-9-10^-11)
- Gamma ray (10^-11-10^-15)
Which ER has longest wavelength (small freq)
Radio
Which ER has smallest wavelength (largest freq)
Gamma ray
Rank visible light from low energy (big wavelength) to high energy (small frequency)
- Red
- Orange
- Yellow
- Green
-Blue - Violet
Relationship between visible light and color
Amplitude determines brightness, frequency/wavelength determines color
Important equations (5)
- c = λv
- λ = c/v
- v = c/λ
- E = hc/λ
- λ = hc/Ephoton
Conversion of nm to m
nm x 1m/10^9nm
Conversion of m to nm
m x 10^9nm/1m
KE
Ephoton - Binding energy
Energy of electron
En = -2.179x10^-18 J (z^2/n^2)
Z is atomic number
n is orbital
Excitation
Energy is absorbed and electron gain enough energy to move to higher orbital
