1
New cards

electromagnetic waves (photons)

what identified the structure of electrons

2
New cards

visible light

whats one example of electromagnetic radiation

3
New cards

form of energy that has wave characteristics travels at a speed of 3.00×10^8 m/s

4

wavelengths and frequencies

5

asserted that energy could be gained or lost in whole number multiples of the quantity hu

6
New cards

Quantum (Plank introduced)

smallest increment of radiant energy that may be absorbed or emitted

7
New cards

Einstein (quantum revolution and examination of electrons with in atoms)

light energy must come in packets

This led to

8
New cards

Photon/ quantum of light (Einstein)

packet of light

9
New cards

light itself

10
New cards

more (direct correlation)

Larger frequency = blank energy

11
New cards

Less (inverse correlation)

Larger wavelength= blank energy

12
New cards

wavelike behavior

Encounter an obstacle or opening in a barrier that is about the same size, they bend around it.

13
New cards

Diffraction

When waves encounter an obstacle or an opening in a barrier about the same size as the wavelength, they bend around it, this is called

14
New cards

Particle bahvior

When they encounter an obstacle or an opening in a barrier, they are either blocked or pass through a slit.

15
New cards

Constructive interference

waves that interact so that they add to make a larger wave are said to be in phase

16
New cards

in phase

Waves that interact so that they add to make a larger wave are said to be….

17
New cards

Destructive interference

waves that interact so that they cancel each other are said to be out of phase

18
New cards

out of phase

waves that interact so that they cancel each other are said to be…

19
New cards

interference pattern (which supports the behavior of light as wavelike)

the diffraction of light through two slits separated results in a blank

20
New cards

current

the emission of electrons can be determined by measuring a

21
New cards

Photoelectric effect

Electrons are excited and gain kinetic energy

gain so much they are ejected (ionized) from the atoms in metal

22
New cards

Threshold Frequency

No electrons are ejected, no matter how bright the light

23
New cards

binding energy

one photon at the threshold frequency gives the electrin just enough energy for it to escape the atom

24
New cards

more energy

When irradiated with a shorter wavelength photon, electron absorbs…

25
New cards

quantized packet of energy

KE=hv-0 (hv)

26
New cards

27

classical mechanics

model of the macroscopic world

28
New cards

classical mechanics

deterministic

given exact position and velocities of all particles at a given time one can calculate the future and past positions and velocities of all particles at any time. (trajectory)

29

Quantum Mechanics

models of the submicroscopic world

30

provides a framework for understanding:

behavior of atoms

periodic trends

chemical bonding

31
New cards

light and subatomic particles

what two things exhibit wave-particle duality

32
New cards

submicroscopic matter

matter extremely small pieces of matter

33

large matter such as a ball

34
New cards

Louis de broglie

Particles could have a wavelike character

wavelength of a particle was inversely proportional to its momentum

35

used to explain where in the atom the electrons are housed

37

400-750nm

38
New cards

Atomic spectroscopy

study of electromagnetic radiation absorbed and emitted by atoms

39
New cards

Niels Bohr (solar system)

electrons move in circular orbits around the nucleus

40
New cards

Bohr’s model

each spectral line is produced when an electron falls from one stable orbit to another of lower energy

41
New cards

electron is promoted to a higher energy level

light is absorbed

42
New cards

energy is emitted

When electron returns to lower state

43
New cards

inconsistent lines=no reproducibility

random/different lines every time

if energy was not quantized we would see

44
New cards

Bohr

electrons occupy permissible places in the atom

45
New cards

probabilty of finding an electron

using mathematical models developed by planck, einstein, Heisenberg, and Schrodinger we can predict….

46

atomic orbitals (definite sizes and shapes)

probability volumes for electrons

47
New cards

Heisenberg’s work

electron energy and position are complementary

electron with a given energy best we can do is describe a region in the atom of high probability of finding it

48
New cards

Schrodinger’s quantum mechanical model

allows us to calculate probability of finding an electron with a particular amount of energy at a particular location in the atom

49
