a form of energy that exhibits wave-like behaivor as it travels through space
|
electromagnetic radiation
|
|
the distance between corresponding parts on adjacent waves
(crest to crest) |
wavelength
|
|
the number of waves that pass a given point in a specific amount of time
|
frequency
|
|
a form of energy that exhibits wave like behavior as it travels through space
|
electromagnetic radiation
|
|
numbers that soecify the properties of atomic orbitals and of their electrons
|
quantum numbers
|
|
symbolized by n, indicates the main energy level occupied by the electron
|
principle quantuum number
|
|
symbolized by l, indicates the shape of an orbital
|
orbital quantum number
|
|
symbolized by m, indicates the orientation of an orbital
s, p, d, f |
magnetic quantum number
|
|
symbolized by s, has only two possible values, +1/2, -1/2, which indicates two possible spin states of an electron in an orbital
|
spin quantum number
|
|
this model pictures atoms as tiny, indestructible particles, with no internal structure
|
dalton's model
|
|
this model pictures electrons embedded in a sphere of positive electrical charge
|
thomson's model
|
|
this model finds that an atom has a small, dense positively charged nucleus.
electrons move around the nucleus failed to explain why elements glowed different colors when excited and rhe chemical properties of elements |
rutherford's model
|
|
in this model, the electron moves in a circular orbit at fixed distances from the nucleus
model fell apart for larger atoms |
bohr's model
|
|
posed that electrons can behave like a particle and a wave
|
de broglie
|
|
quantum mechanical model
worked for larger atoms places electrons in an orbital |
schrodinger
|
|
states that it is impossible to state both the position and velocity of an electron
|
heisenburgs uncertainty principle
|
|
states that an electron occupies the lowest energy orbital that can recieve it
|
aufbau principle
|
|
states the orbitals of equal energy are each occupied by one electron before any is occupied by a second electron
|
hund's rule
|
|
states that no two electrons in the same atom can have the same four quantum numbers
|
pauli exclusion principle
|
