Features of Waves (3.1)

Electromagnetic radiation
- a wave that travels at the speed of light
- the electric field is the sine wave and is measured in voltage
- magnetic field is the cosine wave
quantized waves
- fixed ends of stationary wave restrict number and types of waveforms
- only discrete values of a continuous set are allowed
- node - region where amplitude is zero
  - no motion

Energy, wavelength, frequency of a photon (3.1)

wavelength goes in the opposite direction of frequency and energy
frequency is represented by v
wavelength is represented by lambda
the visible light spectrum is 400-800nm
- blue is 400nm and red is 800nm

one photon is equal to one light unit
Energy is measured in joules

Photoelectric effect (3.1)

minimum threshold to eject electrons is related to the frequency of light
- classical physics suggested the amplitude of a wave influences the energy but experimentally, it was discovered that it is the frequency
there is a certain amount of energy required to hold the atom together
in order to eject an electron, you must overcome the threshold energy

Orbit energy of e-, delta E, Bohr Model (3.1, 3.2)

line spectra
- elements and molecules have emission spectra that correspond to a series of line
  - each line is a single wavelength
  - Rydberg equation (included in sheet)
    - n refers to which orbit an electron might be in
    - 1 over lambda

wave particle duality
- light behaves both wavelike and particle-like
  - wavelike property - interference patterns obtained when light passed through a double slit
  - particle like property - photoelectric effect
Bohr's atomic theory
- Bohr used the results of Planck and Einstein's experiments to develop a better atomic theory, making the following assumptions about an atom's electrons
  - electrons travel in circular orbit around the nucleus
  - energy proportional to distance
  - orbits are quantized
    - equation is included on the sheet
    - E sub n
    - Delta E
    - Z is the nuclear charge
  - energy is absorbed/emitted when orbits change
- Orbit transitions
  - an electron moves to a higher level (n) when a specific quantity of energy is absorbed
  - an electron moves to a lower level (n) when a specific quantity of energy is emitted
- the Bohr model fails with more than one electron, but was right about the following
  - e- attracted to nucleus by the opposing charges of the particles
  - e- energies are quantized
  - e- energies increase as the distance from the nucleus increases
  - discrete energies in spectra of elements result from quantized energy transitions of e- between levels

DeBroglie Wavelength (3.3)

wavelength is equal to h over linear momentum
- linear momentum is equal to mass multiplied by velocity
quantization of angular momentum, L, is equal to n multiplied by h
wavelike properties are only important for small particles (electrons)
- Electron location and momentum
  - Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
    - We can only know either the position or momentum of a particle at any given instant
    - we can not know both in one instant
    - consequence of wave-particle duality
      - there are limitations governing the motions of quantum particles
schrodinger
- expanded on de Broglie's work and developed a wave equation that described and electron as a wave function, represented by psi
  - psi are not physical waves but complex probability amplitudes
  - psi squared is equal to the probability distribution (e- distribution)

Quantum Theory, Quantum Numbers (3.3)

a series of four quantum numbers describe the energies, locations and other properties of an electron in a given atom
- principle quantum number (n)
  - discrete energy level
  - energies increase as the distance from the nucleus increase
  - atomic orbital
  - which orbital
  - corresponds to the row on the periodic table
- angular momentum quantum number (l)
  - shape
  - integers from 0 to n-1
  - s, p, d, and f orbitals are 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively
  - when l is not equal to 0, the orbitals have directionality about the z axis described by the magnetic quantum number
- magnetic quantum number (m sub l)
  - orientation
  - integers from -l to l
  - number of degenerate orbitals in subshell
- spin quantum number (m sub s)
  - electronic spin
  - overall one magnitude, two quantized states
  - +1/2, -1/2
  - spin states degenerate unless in external magnetic field

Orbitals and Wave functions (3.3)

pauli exclusion principle
- no two electrons can have the same two sets of electrons
- they have different quantum numbers in some way or another
radial nodes
- there are certain distances from the nucleus at which the probability density of finding an electron located at a particular orbital is zero
- the number of nodes is equal to the energy level minus l minus 1

Electron Configurations (3.4)

the total number of electrons in an atom populate these orbitals following a set of rules
the end result is an electron configuration or orbital diagram
hund's rule
- electrons spread out within a sub shell and have the same spin
- filled and half filled subshells are especially stable
aufbau principle
- build up from lowest energy to highest
valence electrons
- the electrons in the outermost principle quantum level of an atom (largest value of n)
- the 3de- are not counted as part of the valence shell
  - full d and f shells are not considered part of the valence shell because they are not involved in reactions if they are full
  - therefore, determination of the number of valence e- for any main group atom is simply the group number
  - HOWEVER, atoms in the transition series do count the de- toward the valence shell

Periodic Trends (3.5, 3.6)

periodic law - the properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers
nuclear charge
- many of the periodic trends involving e- can be qualitatively explained using the effective nuclear charge (Z sub eff) of the atom
  - this is the pull exerted on a specific electron by the nucleus, taking into account any electron-electron repulsions
  - Z sub off is equal to Z minus the shielding
    - shielding is the e- repulsions
radii
- covalent radius - one half the distance between the nuclei of two identical atoms when they are joined by a covalent bond
- ionic radius - size of an ion
- increases as you go down and to the left
ionization energy - Energy required to remove the most loosely bound e- in formation of cation
- as size increases, IE decreases
  - it becomes easier to remove electrons
- increases as you go up and to the right
- watch for filled and half filled subshells
electron affinity - energy change for adding an electron to gaseous atom in formation of an anion
- increases going up and to the right
unit prefixes and conversions
- pico 10^-12
- nano 10^-9
- micro 10^-6
- milli 10^-3
- centi 10^-2
- kilo 10^3

Ionic and Covalent Bonds, including polyatomic (3.7)

monatomic ions
- the majority of chemical reactions do not change the nucleus of an atom
- electrons can be transferred or shared
- groups
  - alkali metals
  - alkaline earth metals
  - chalcogens
  - halogens
  - noble gases
polyatomic ions
- usually have a negative charge
binary bonding
- ionic
  - metal and nonmetal
  - groups of atoms held together by electrostatic interactions
  - transfer of electrons
- molecular/covalent
  - nonmetal and nonmetal
  - groups of atoms held together by sharing electrons
