| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Electromagnetic Radiation | Form of energy that exhibits wave like behavior at it travels through space. |
| Wavelength | Shortest distance between two points on a continous wave. |
| Frenquency | Number of waves that pass a point in a given second. |
| Amplitude | The waves height from the origin to the crest. |
| Electromagnetic Spectrum | Encompasses all forms of electomagentic radiation. |
| Quantum | Minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom. |
| Planks Constant | Value of 6.626x10(-34)j.s. |
| Photoelectric Effect | Electrons called photoelectrons are entitled from a metal surface when light of a certain frequency shines on the surface. |
| Photon | A partical of electromagnetic radiation with no mass that carries a quantom of energy. |
| Atomic Emission Spectron | The set of frequencies of the electromagnetic waves entitled by atoms of the element. |
| Ground State | the lowest allowable energy state of an atom. |
| de broglie equation | predicts that all moving particles have a wave characteristics and relates each particle's wavelentgh to its frenquency, its mass, and Planck's constant. |
| heisenberg uncertainity principle | to know the velocity and position of a partical |
| quantom mechanical model of the atom | the atomic model on which electrons are treated as waves |
| atomic orbital | describes the electrons probable location |
| principle quantum numbers | indicate the relative sizes and energies of atomic orbital |
| principle energy levels | the atoms major energy levels |
| energy sublevels | are in priciple energy levels |
