unit 5 Flashcards
definition : wavelength λ
l
length between the peaks or roughs of the wave
definition: frequency (v)
number of times a wave passes through a certain point in a second
relationship between wavelength, energy, and frequency
wavelength in INVERSE of energy & frequency
higher wavelenght = less energy and less frequency (lower wavelength = m
(electromagnetic) n stands for:
energy level
(electromagnetic) another name for n
principal quantum energy
relationship between n and stability
inverse
as energy level goes up, stabiltiy goes down
What are the sublevels of N=1
1S
What are the sublevels of N=2
2 S
2 P
What are the sublevels of N=3
3S
3P
3D
How many electrons does S hold?
orbitals?
2 electrons
1 orbital
How many electrons does P hold? orbitals?
6 electrons
3 orbitals
How many electrons does D hold? orbitals?
10 electrons
5 orbitals
S shape
sphere
P shape
dumbell
D shape

How do you find n on the period table?
electromagnetic
go down the rows “periods”
How do you find sublevels on the periodic table?
electromanetic
Use the family groups
1-2 (AND He) = S
transition metals = D
3-8 = P
