Question
Answer
electromagnestic radiation   radiant energy that exhibits wavelike properties and travels through space at the speed of light in a vacuum  
🗑
wavelength   the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs in a wave  
🗑
frequency   the number of waves pers second that pass a given point in space  
🗑
units for frequency   1/sec or hertz  
🗑
symbol for frequency   v  
🗑
symbol for wavelength   lamda  
🗑
speed of light   3x10 to the 8th m/s  
🗑
photon   a particle of light  
🗑
e equals   6.626x10 to the -34 times frequency  
🗑
visibile light spectrum   400 nm to 700 nm, violet to red.  
🗑
speed of light is   wavelength times frequency  
🗑
equation to represent this phenomenom   -2.178x10 times (1/n2final- 1/n2initial)  
🗑
principal quantum number   the quantum number relating to the size and energy of an orbita; it can have nay positive integer value  
🗑
angular momentum quantum number   the quantum number relating to the shape of an atomic orbital which can assume any integral value from 0 to n-1 for each value of n  
🗑
magnetic quantum numbe   the quantum number relating to the orientation of an orbital in spce relative to the other orbitals with the same l value. it can have integral values from -l to l, including zero  
🗑
electron spin uantum number   a quantum number repreating one of the two possible values for the electron spin, either 1/2 or -1/2  
🗑
s   0  
🗑
p   1  
🗑
d   2  
🗑
f   3  
🗑
heisenberg uncertainity principle   there is a fundamental limitation to how precisely both the position and momentum of a particle can be known at a given time  
🗑
aufbau principle   as protons are added one by one to the neucleus to build up elements, electrons are similarly added to ortbials. An electron must occupy the lowest possible enrgy orbital.  
🗑
pauli exclusion principle   in a given atom, no two electrons can have the same set of four quantum numbers  
🗑
hunds rule   the lowest energy configuration for an ato is the one having the max number of unpaired electrons allowed by the pauli exclusion principle in a particular set of degenerate orbitas, orbitals in the same energy level and sublevel, with all the unpaired ele  
🗑
ground state   the lowest possible energy state of an atom  
🗑
excited state   an energy state higher than the ground state of an atom. an outside source of energy must be supplied to reach this state.  
🗑
valence electrons   the electrons in the outermost principal quantum level of an atom  
🗑
core electron   an inner electron in an atom  
🗑
paramagnetism   a type of induced magnetism, associated with unpaired electrons, that causes a substance to be attracted into the inducing magnetic field  
🗑
diamagnetism   a type of magnetism, associated with paired electrons, that causes a substance to be repelled from the inducting magnetic field.  
🗑
atomic radius   half othe distance between 2 radii in a covalently bonded diatomic molecule  
🗑
ionaization energy   the energy required to remove one electron from an atom  
🗑
electron affinity   tthe energy change asscoaited with the addition of an electron to a gaseous atom  
🗑
electronegativity   the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract shared eletrons to itself  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
