Who invented the metal foil experiment? |
Ernest Rutherford. |
|
What did the metal foil experiment consist of? |
An alpha source, a thin metal foil, and a photographic screen. He expected all the particles to go through but 2% deflected or bounced back |

What letter represents the atomic number? |
Z |
|
What is a WAVE? |
A progressive, repeating disturbance that spreads through a medium (sound) |
|
Electromagnetic Wave |
Originates from the movement of electric charges. Doesn’t require any medium! |
|
What does amplitude indicate? |
Intensity |
|
Electromagnetic Spectrum |
Complete range of wavelength and frequencies. Another names include EMR (electromagnetic radiation) and Continuous Spectrum. |
|
Emission Spectrum |
A record of emitted light |
|
Who said “certain atoms in a heated solid can only absorb or emit EMR in a certain, discrete amount”? |
Max Planck |
|
What is a Quantum? |
The smallest unit of energy. Magnitude of a quantum is h*frequency. h=6.626x10^-34 (Planck’s Constant) |
|
What is a Photon? |
Little packets of EMR, energy treated as a particle. Energy of a photon is E=h*frequency(v) |
|
What is Rutherford’s Nuclear Theory? |
1. Electrons can not be stationary 2. Electrons are in motion to overcome attraction to the nucleus 3. Electrons give off a continuous emission of light
4. Electrons are unstable |
|
Who said “electrons can only be specified values (quantized)”? |
Niels Bohr |
|
How do you calculate electron energy (En)? |
En= -B/n^2 B=2.179x10^-18 (bohrs constant) N= energy level |
|
What does a negative electron energy (En) indicate? |
It indicates a force of attraction to the nucleus |
|
What is the Ground State for electrons? |
Their normal location |
|
What is the Excited State of electrons? |
The location of electrons when energy is absorbed |
|
What is the formula for the excited state? |
B(1/ni^2-1/nf^2) N=energy level B=bohrs constant |
|
Final energy level > initial energy level |
Absorbed energy |
|
What are the 3 problems of Bohr’s theory? |
1. Based on Hydrogen 2. 2D 3. Electrons are much harder to locate in reality |
|
What is Wave-Particle Duality of Light? |
Light can be described as a particle and a wave |
|
Who said “matter can behave as a wave?” |
Louis de Broglie Wavelength = plancks constant*frequency |
|
What is Quantum Mechanics? |
The Who diTheory of atomic structure that treats electrons as wave |
|
Who discovered Quantum Mechanics? |
Erwin Schrodinger |
|
The Wave Function serves to solve the Wave Equation. To find the probability of finding an electron in a particular volume of space you use the formula- |
Wave Function^2 |
|
How many energy level shells are there? |
7 |
|
How many energy level sub shells are there? |
S, p, d, f. We count them as 0,1,2,3 |
|
Electron configuration shows- |
Subshells |
|
Orbital diagrams show |
Orbitals in the form of arrows |
|
What is the Aufbau Principle? |
To build an atom, one electron at a time. A rule that electrons always occupy orbitals of the lowest energy possiblewhat |
|
Anions |
Add electrons to the valence shell (negative) |
|
Cations |
Lose electrons from the valence shell (positive) |
|
How does Magnetism work? |
A single electron creates a magnetic field. Paired electrons balance each other out. |
|
Diamagnetism |
Repels an external magnetic field |
|
Paramagnetic |
Strongly attracted to an external field |
|
Which has a larger atomic radius? Cations or anions? |
Anions get lrger Cations get smaller |
|
What are Isoelectric Particles? |
Particles with same # of electrons |
|
What is Ionization Energy? |
The amount of energy it takes to remove an electron from a ground state atom |
|
What is Electron Affinity? |
The amount of energy given off when an electron is added to an atom. Always negative value. |
|
What part of the periodic table has the highest IE and EA levels? |
Top right hand corner |
|
Ionization energies are usually _________ while electron affinity values are usually ____________. (Positive/Negative) |
IE = positive values EA= negative values |
|
Metals tend to lose/gain electrons to form cations/anions |
Metals tend to lose electrons and form cations |
|
Nonmetals tend to gain/lose electrons to form cations/anionsu |
Nonmetals tend to gain electrons to form anions. |
|
Why do noble gases have a high EA and IE? |
They have no desire to gain or lose electrons. |
|
How do Ionic Bonds Occur? |
Through electron transfer (metal and nonmetal) |
|
How do covalent bonds occur? |
Electron sharing |
|
What is the change in enthalpy? |
The change in heat of a chemical reaction at a constant pressure |

Exothermic |
|
A positive enthalpy is a _____ |
Endothermic reaction |
|
Born-Haber Cycle Steps |
1. Substances start in room temp 2. Convert to gas 3. Form ions 4. Use IE, EA, and lattice energy |
|
What is Lattice energy? |
Energy given off when 1 mol of compound forms gaseous ions. Energy stored in crystal lattice. |
|
Nonpolar covalent bond |
Bonding pair is shared equally |
|
Polar covalent bond |
Bonding pair is not shared equally |
|
What is Electronegativity? |
The ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself when in a molecule |
|
What is Coordinate Covalent Bond? |
When one atom provides both electrons of the shared pair |
