hf, where h is Planck's constant and f is the frequency of radiation
How does the energy of an electron relate to its radius of orbit?
Directly: If the radius of orbit is decreased, then it's energy will also decrease.

Energy released by an electron as it falls from an excited state to its ground state.
What is an atomic absorption spectrum?
When an electron becomes excited, it absorbs energy at a specific wavelength, this is known as an absorption spectrum.

Because the model didn't take electron repulsion into account (i.e., atoms with more than 1 electron)
What does the modern quantum model state regarding electron path?
Electrons do not travel in a fixed, circular orbit around a nucleus, rather they are in rapid motion around region orbitals.

2n^2, where n is the principal quantum number.
Is there a greater difference in energy between n=3 and n=4 or n=2 and n=3? Why?
Between n=2 and n=3, because energy between orbitals decreases as the distance from the nucleus increases.

-l to l
What does Hund's rule state?

What does the Periodic Law state?
the chemical properties of elements depend on their atomic numbers
What happens to the numbers of valence electrons as you go across a period? What effect does this have on the attraction between valence electrons and the nucleus?
Increase number of valence electrons; increase attraction (more tightly bound)
What happens to the number of valence electrons as you go down a group? What effect does this have on the attraction between valence electrons and the nucleus?
Number of valence electrons remain constant, but there is increased shielding by other filled principal orbitals, so there is less attraction between valence electrons and the nucleus (less tightly bound)
What is the periodic trend of atomic radius?
Atomic radius decreases across a period and increases DOWN a group
What is Ionization Energy? How does Ionization Energy relate to how tightly bound an electron is to its nucleus?
Amount of energy required to remove a valence electron from a gaseuous atom.

The more tightly bound the electron is, the greater the Ionization Energy.
What is the periodic trend of Ionization Energy?
IE increases across a period, and decreases down a group.
What is Electron Affinity?
Electron affinity is the amount of energy released when an electron is added to an atom (ease in which an electron is accepted)
Why do Group I elements have significantly lower Ionization Energies?
Because they only need to lose 1 electron to achieve noble gas configuration.
What is Effective Charge?
The attractive pull of the nucleus for electrons.
What is the relationship between Effective Charge and Electron Affinity?
The greater the Zeff, the greater the Electron Affinity
Why do Group IIA electrons tend to have lower electron affinities?
They have filled s orbitals, they don't need any more electrons (they're stable)
What is the approximate electron affinity of a noble gas?
~0
What is the approximae electron affinity of a halogen?
VERY HIGH b/c brings them to octet
What is electronegativity?
Electronegativity is the attraction an atom feels for electrons IN A CHEMICAL BOND
How does Ionization Energy relate to Electronegativity?
Lower IE means lower EN

How does the number of electrons shared in a molecular bond affect the bond length?
Increase number of bonds shared --> decrease length of bond

Low temperature, High pressure
How do real gases deviate from ideality as a function of pressure? How would this affect predicted volume?
At moderately high pressure, volume is less than IGL predicts because of IMF

At REALLY HIGH PRESSURE, size of particles larger than distance between them, increasing volume
How do real gases deviate from ideality as a function of temperature? How would this affect predicted volume?
At lower temperature, molecules move at a lower velocity, allowing for IMF to exert greater effect, thus, smaller volume
