Answer 10

• All EM waves travel at speed of light
• c = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s
• c = λv
• Long wavelength = low frequency
• Short wavelength = high frequency

Question 11

Question 14

Wavelength vs energy vs frequency (red vs violet)

Answer 14

• RED: Large wavelength = low frequency = low energy
• VIOLET: Small wavelength = high frequency = high energy

Question 15

Photoelectric effect

Answer 15

• When light is shone on a metal, electrons are ejected from the metal
• The ejected electrons have a ceratin amount of kinetic energy

Question 16

Classical physics prediction

Answer 16

• Higher amplitude (brighter) = more energy
• Bright red = eject electrons, dim red = no electrons
• Bright blue = eject electrons, dim blue = no electrons
• Brighter light = higher energy of electrons popped off

Question 17

Blue vs red light actually observed

Answer 17

• Bright red = no electrons, dim red = no electrons
• Bright blue = eject electrons, dim blue = eject electrons (but fewer)
• Suggests that the ability of light to eject electrons depends on its frequency, not brightness
• Planck - energy and frequency directly related
• Einstein uses this to explain the photoelectric effect

Question 18

Einstein explains photoelectric effect

Answer 18

• Light as particles, each with its own quantum (specific amount) of energy, depending on its frequency
• Particles called photons
• Only those photons with the minimum amount of energy needed to eject electrons from metal will do so

Question 19

Photon

Answer 19

• A particle of electromagnetic radiation having zero mass and carrying a quantum of energy
• Light has a dual nature

Question 20

Classical view of atom

Answer 20

• An electron traveled about the nucleus in an orbit
• Any orbit should be possible for any electron
• Did not know why the electrons did not fall into the nucleus

Question 21

Neils Bhor

Answer 21

• Built a simple model of an atom
• Based on an understanding of the sharp line emission spectrum of excited atoms

Question 22

Line emission spectra

Answer 22

• When atoms or molecules absorb energy, that energy is often released as light energy (fireworks, etc)
• When that light is passed through a prism. a pattern is seen that is unique to that type of atom or molecule — pattern called an emission spectrum
  
  • ​Non-continuous
  • Can be used to identify the material
    
    • Flame tests

Question 23

Line emission spectra of excited atoms

Answer 23

• Excited atoms emit light of only certain wavelengths
• The wavelengths of emitted light depend on the element

Electron in lowest energy level possible

Question 25

Atomic spectra and Bhor

Answer 25

* e- can only exist in certain **discrete orbits** of specific energy (quantized energy states) * e- have a **specific** amount of energy that is equal to the PE of their location * PE of e- is determined by its distance from the nucleus * Closer to nucleus = lower PE * Each type of photon has an energy equal to the energy lost by specific jumps in energy levels * Nobel prize 1922 * **Problem**: only works for hydrogen --\> quantum/wave mechanics

* Proposed (1924) that all moving objects have wave properties * For light: E = mc² * E = hν = hc / λ * mc = h / λ * For particles: c = velocity * (mass)(velocity) = h / λ * mv = h / λ * λ = h / mv

Question 28

Quantum / wave mechanics (+ equation)

Answer 28

* Using deBroglie's equation **λ = h/mv** can calulcate the wavelength for moving objects * λ = wavlength (meters) * v = velocity (m/sec) * m = mass (kg) * h = Planck's constant

Question 29

Uncertainty principle

Answer 29

* Problem of defining nature of electrons in atoms * Solved by W. **Heisenberg** * Cannot simultaneously define the **position** and **momentum** (m\*v) of an electron * We define e- energy exactly but accept limitation that we do not know exact position * m = kg * v = m/s

E Schrodinger

Answer 31

* Applied idea of e- behaving as a wave to the problem of electrons in atoms * Developed the **wave equation** * Solution gives set of math expressions called **wave functions** * Each wave function describes an allowed energy state of an e- which corresponds to an **_orbital_** - the region of space within which an electron is found * Area of probability, not exact location

Question 32
