Electromagnetic radiation
A form of energy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels through space
Wavelength
Distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave
Frequency
Number of waves that pass a given point in a specific time usually 1 second
Max planck
Suggested that objects emit energy in small specific packets called quanta.
Quantum energy
The minimum quantity of energy that can be lost or gained by an atom
E=hv
Energy = 6.626 × 10^-34 * frequency
E= hc/ lambda
E= 6.626 × 10^-34 × 2.998 × 10^8/ wavelength
Albert Einstein
Light has dual wave-particle relationship. Each particle carries a quantum of energy. These particles are photos.
Photon
Has 0 mass and carries a quantum
Quantum theory
States that electrons can exist only at specific atomic energy levels
