Chemistry: Ch. 5

Chapter 5

QuestionAnswer
Electromagnetic spectrum -series of waves including visible and invisible light -visible: ROYGBIV -invisible: everything else
Wavelength -lambda -distance between two crests -measured in nm, m, cm
Frequency -v -number of waves -1/s, s to the neg. 1st, Hz
Speed of light -3.00 x 10 to the 8th m/s
Finding speed of light (equation) c=λv
Finding wavelength (equation) λ=c/v
Finding frequency (equation) v=c/λ
Finding energy (equation) E=h*v (h=Planck's constant) (v=frequency)
Planck's Constant 6.6262 x 10 to the -34 J/S
What did Max Planck propose? -proposed that light was emitted is "packets" of energy called quanta
What is excited state? -when an electron gains energy
What is the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle? -declares that it is impossible to know the velocity and position of a particle at the same time
Who proposed the Quantum Mechanical Model and what did it conclude? -Schrodinger and Heisenberg -concluded that electrons are not found in orbits, but rather in atomic orbitals
What is a quantum? -the amount of energy needed to move an electron away from the nucleus
What are quantum numbers? -regions in space where electrons are found
Sublevels S, P, D, F
S -spherical -1 orbital -maximum # of electrons: 2
P -dumbbell -3 orbitals -maximum # of electrons: 6
D -clover -5 orbitals -maximum # of electrons: 10
F -forget about it -7 orbitals -maximum # of electrons: 14
Aufbau Principle -electrons enter orbitals at the lowest energy level first
Pauli Exclusion Principle -no more than 2 electrons can occupy an orbital -electrons in the same orbital must have opposite spins
Hund's Rule -when electrons occupy orbitals of equal energy, one electron enters each orbital until all the orbitals contain one electron with parallel spins
Exceptional configurations -only applies to elements that end in d4 and d9 -exception: a half-full d sublevel is more stable than a partially-filled d sublevel -(ex) elements go from: 4s2 3d4 to 4s1 3d5

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
