Why We're Here Flashcards
1
Q
1) How does electrons get promoted
2) What level does a electron at 90 nm wavelength promote to
A
1) Specific wavelength get electrons promoted to specific energy level
2) 4n, Smaller wavelength equates to larger energy
2
Q
Wavelength & Frequency Which denotes: 1) Lambda 2) v 3) Why are they inversely proportional
A
1) Wavelength
2) Frequency
3) Smaller the wavelength the higher the frequency
3
Q
Frequency proportional to energy
A
As frequency increases so does energy
4
Q
Energy formula
A
E = h v (h = Planck's constant
5
Q
Planck’s Constant
A
6.626 x 10-34 J s
6
Q
Violet wavelengths
1) Long or short
2) High or low energy
A
1) Short
2( High energy (promotes further away from the nucleus)
7
Q
What is the relationship between absorption and emission spectra?
A
They’re opposites
