Heisenberg uncertainty principle
|
States that there exists an uncertainty in the product of the position of a particle and its momentum.
|
|
Aufbau principle
|
With each new proton added to create a new element, a new electron is added as well.
|
|
Hund's rule
|
electrons will not fill any orbital in the same subshell until all orbitals in the subshell contain at least one electron.
|
|
Planck's quantum theory (deltaE=hf)
|
Electromagnetic energy is quantized. aka, we can increase the amount of energy transferring without changing the frequency.
