Chapter 7 Cheat Sheet

Seite 1

waves- A vibrating disturbance by which energy is transmitted

wavelength (λ)- distance b/n two points

frequency (ν)- # of waves that pass through a pt

amplitutde- vertical distance of a wave

measured in Hz

Seite 2

Formulas

Speed of waves

u=λν

energy of a single quantum

E=hv

E=hc/λ

Energy of a photon

E=hv

Electrons aquiring kinetic energy

hv= KE+W

Energies e- can obtain in H

En=-RH (1/n2)

Rh constant= 2.18x10-18 J

Change in Energy state

triE=Ef-Ei

De Broglie dual nature

λ=h/mu

Seite 3

Electromagnetic waves-A wave that has an electric field component and a mutually perpendicular magnetic field component

same, wavelength, frequency, and speed

the energy given off is electromagnetic radiation

Seite 4

emission spectra- Continuous or line spectra emitted by substances

every element has unique emission spectra

line spectra- light emissions at specific wavelengths

Seite 5

Planck's Quantum Theory

Quantum- smallest amount of E that can b emitted or absorbed

Always emitted in intervals; hv, 2hv, 3hv

Planck's constant: 6.6310-34 J * s

Photoeletric Effect- Einstein

A phenomenon in which electrons are ejected from the surface of certain metals exposed to light of at least a certain minimum frequency

Photons- particles of light

Electrons r held in metal by attractive forces

if frequency of photons matches E holding e- they will come loose

if higher they will become loose and get some kinetic energy

more energy of photon more KE

Light behaves like particles and waves (particle wave duality)

Seite 6

Bohr's Theory of H atom

energies of electrons r quantized, why they don't spiral out of control

Emitting energy- e- drops from higher energy to lower

Absorbing energy- e- goes from lower to higher energy

Ground state-lowest energy state of system

Excited state- higher energy state than ground state

Seite 7

Dual Nature of Electrons

De Broglie asked if e-s can behave like particles, maybe e- can behave like waves

Quantum Mechanics

Heisenberg uncertainty principle- can't know the position and momentum of a particle at the same time

Shrodinger Equation- wave function

wave function squared is probality used to find where electron located

Electron density- where an e- might be located

atomic orbial- wave function of an e- in an atom

Rlly only works 4 H becuz it has 1 e-
