Unit 3: Electrons And Periodicity Flashcards
Speed of Light Measurement
3.00xE8 m/s
Light
A kind of ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION.
Trough
The bottom curve of a wave
Crest
Upper curve of a wave
Wavelength
Shortest distance between equivalent points on a continuous wave
(Represented by an upside down y)
Frequency
Number of Waves that pass a given point per second
CYCLES/SEC or HERTZ (Hz)
Frequency and Wavelength…..
Are inversely related, when frequency goes up wavelength is shorter
Electromagnetic Spectrum Order…
Radio Waves Microwaves Infrared Visible Light Ultraviolet X-Rays Gamma Rays
Low Energy has ——– Frequency and ——- Wavelengths
Low Frequency and Long Wavelengths
High Energy has ——- Frequency and ——- Wavelengths
High Frequency and Shorter Wavelengths
Max Planck
German Physicist
Discovered Quantum, photons, and relationships between frequency and energy
Quanta
Gain or lose of energy in small specific amounts.(matter)
Photons
Tiny particles of electromagnetic radiation or BUNDLES of energy with NO MASS
Carries a quantum of energy
Energy of Quantum is directly related to…….
The frequency of the empires radiation
Frequency of light increases…..
Energy of a photon increases
Photoelectric Effect
Proposed by Einstein.
Electrons are emitted from a metals surface when light of a certain frequency shines on the surface
The further from the nucleus an energy level is…..
…. The higher the energy (ring or ladders)
Bohr
Created the Bohr Model of the Atom which describes electrons in different orbitals and the movements involved.
Ground State
Lowest allowable energy state of an atom
Excited State
When an atom gains energy. Can drop from higher energy orbit to lower.
Transition of an electron from high to low or low to high emits a …….
Photon that corresponds to the difference between the energy levels associated with the two orbits
Line Spectra
When an element gives off it’s own color, it can be identified through the line spectrum
Emission
The spectrum of piggy released from excited atoms of an element
Principal Quantum
Main Energy Levels (1,2,3,4). Contains Subshells
Angular Momentum
Shape of Orbital
Magnetic Quantum
Orientation
