Chem c = λν

wavelength, frequency, energy, orbitals, etc.

QuestionAnswer
Wavelength symbol λ
Frequency symbol ν
Speed of Light symbol c
Speed of Light formula c = λ · ν
Energy formulas E = ℎ · ν ' ' ' ' ℎ · c E = -------- ' ' ' ' ' ' λ
1m = how many nm? (GIVEN) 1m = 1 · 10^9 nm
ℎ equation (GIVEN) ℎ = 6.626 · 10^-34 (J·s)
How many orbitals does s have? 1
How many orbitals does p have? 3
How many orbitals does d have? 5
How many orbitals does f have? 7
Order of lowest to highest energy orbitals? s, p, d, f
What is the shape of s? perfect sphere
What is the shape of p? bow-tie (two ovals next to each other)
What are the starting levels for s, p, d, and f? s - n=1 p - n=2 d - n=3 f - n=4
How many electrons are in s? 2
How many electrons are in p? 6
How many electrons are in d? 10
How many electrons are in f? 14
d^4 is... and turns into... DE-FIVED d^5, and one ^ is removed from the p or f right before it
d^9 is... and turns into... DE-NIED d^10, and one ^ is removed from the p or f right before it
The principal quantum number (the # in 1s or 3p for example) indicates what property of an electron? energy level
What is the probability of finding an electron within the region indicated by the drawn electron cloud? 90%
The quantum mechanical model of the atom is concerned with the probability of finding an electron in a certain position
The SHAPE of an electron cloud is determined by the electron's energy sublevel (s, p, d, f)
The formula 2n^2 represents the max number of electrons that can occupy an energy level
The letter "p" in 4p^3 indicates the orbital shape
When to fill all orbitals before doing the next and when to do one each? Depends on Hund's Rule (give each orbital 1 electron first, then start giving them another), the Aufbau Principle (electrons fill orbitals of the lowest energy first), and the Pauli Exclusion Principle (max of 2 e can be in 1 orbital but need opp spins)
What is Hund's Rule? when filling degenerate orbitals (orbitals of the same energy), electrons will first occupy each orbital singly with parallel spins before any orbitals are doubly occupied (gives each one 1 up arrow before giving them each a down arrow to match)
What is the Aufbau Principle? electrons enter orbitals of lowest energy first (think "build up" / Aufbau)
What is Dalton's Theory? all matter is made of indivisible particles called atoms, which combine in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds
What is the Pauli Exclusion Principle? a maximum of two electrons can occupy the same orbital, but only if they have opposite spins no 2 electrons can have the same set of 4 quantum numbers
What is electromagnetic radiation? the means by which energy travels through space exhibits wavelike behavior travels at the speed of light in a vacuum
What is a quantum? a packet of energy
what are the 2 conclusions from Planck's Postulate? 1. energy is quantized 2. energy can occur in discrete units of hv
what is the photoelectric effect? when electrons are emitted from the surface of a metal when light strikes it
When v is less than what are no electrons emitted in the photoelectric effect? v zero
what is diffraction? when light is scattered from a regular array of points or lines
scattered radiation produces a ___________ _______ of bright spots and dark areas on a photographic plate diffraction pattern
what is a continuous spectrum? when white light is passed through a prism (contains all the wavelengths of visible light)
what is a line spectrum? shows only certain discrete wavelengths
what is Niels Bohr's quantum model? the electron in a hydrogen atom moves around the nucleus in certain allowed circular orbits
what is the radial probability distribution? plots the total probability of finding an electron in each spherical shell versus the distance from the nucleus
what is the shape of d? four-leaf clover
what is the penetration effect? what causes s to be lower energy than p to be lower energy than d to be lower energy than f
d fills ___ level(s) later, f fills ____ level(s) later 1, 2

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.
