Unit 1.2: Electron Arrangement and Periodic Law Chemistry Review

QuestionAnswer
An unknown wave has a frequency of 3.0x10^18 Hz. What is the wavelength in meters? c = f*lang lang = c/f (3.00x10^8 m/s)/(3.0x10^18 s^-1) = 1.0x10^-10m
Rank the types of waves in decreasing energy, x-rays, AM radio, UV rays, gamma rays, FM radio, infrared rays, blue light, purple light, yellow light, green light, red light, and orange light. gamma, x-ray, uv, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, infrared, FM, AM
The red light from a helium-neon laser has a wavelength of 633 nm. What is the energy of the photon? Express your answer with units and appropriate number of sig figs. E = hc/lang <-- must be in m 633nm = 6.33x10^-7m ((6.63x10^-34 J*s)(3.00x10^8 m/s))/6.33x10^-7m = 3.14x10^-19 J
Given the following electron configuration, describe what each letter and number means: 1s^2 1 = principle energy level s = sublevel 2 = number of e- (electrons) in that sublevel

Identify the element that has the following electron configuration: [Xe] 6s^1 Cesium
Explain why atomic radius of an atom gets smaller as you move from left to right across a period (possible terms to use: shielding, coulombic forces of attraction and nuclear charge) Nuclear charge increases --> pulling e- (electrons) in closer
Explain why ionization energy decreases as you move from top to bottom down a group (possible terms to use: shielding, coulombic forces of attraction and nuclear charge) More shielding (inner e- blocking + nucleus from outer e-) shielding = large atoms blocking = makes it easier to remove outer e- ---> meaning to lower i.e.
Explain what is meant by "Coulombic forces of attraction" + and - attract each other, but the greater distance between the 2 ---> the weaker the attraction

According to Bohr Model of hydrogen atom, how is hydrogen's emission spectrum produced? smaller fall --> (red) less energy larger fall --> (violet) more energy electrons get hit with a proton causing it to jump up energy levels, becoming excited. electrons can't stay excited, so it falls back to ground state, releasing E as light.

Match the correct term: The strength of the nucleus to hold (attract) the outer electrons due to an increase of protons in the nucleus Nuclear Charge
Atomic radii generally ________________as you move from left to right in a given period because there is an increase in the nuclear charge while the number of inner electrons, and hence the shielding effect, remains constant. Decrease
Atomic radii generally _________________ within a given group because the outer electrons are farther from the nucleus as you go down the group. Increase
The attractive force of the increased nuclear charge is unable to overcome the effect of the greater distance, which acts in opposition. memorize this
Ionization energy generally ____ as you move from left to right across a period. increases

Electronegativity ____________ as you move down a group. decreases
Why do positive ions have smaller ionic radii than neutral atoms? Example: Why is the lithium atom larger than the lithium ion? Loss of electrons Greater nuclear-charge compared to electrons --> so pulls in tighter
