Question
Answer
Electromagnetic Radiation   form of enerygy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels through space  
🗑
wavelenght   tha shortest distance between equivalent points on a continuous wave  
🗑
Frequency   the number of waves that pass a given point per second  
🗑
Amplitude   the waves height from the origin to a crest, or from the origin to a trough  
🗑
Electromagnetic Spectrum   encompasses all forms of electromagnetic radiation, with the only difference in the types of radiation being their frequencies and wavelenghts  
🗑
quantum   the minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom  
🗑
Planck's Constant   has a value of 6.626 x 10^-34, Where J is the symbol for the joule, the SI unit of energy  
🗑
Photoelectric Effect   are emitted from a metal's surface when light of a cartain frequency shines on the surface  
🗑
Photon   is a particle of electromagnetic radiation with no mass that carries a quantum of energy  
🗑
Atomic Emission spectrum   is the set of frenquencies of the electromagntic waves emitted by atoms of the element  
🗑
Ground state   lowest allowable energy state of an atom  
🗑
de Broglie equation   predicts all moving particles have wave characteristics  
🗑
Heisenberg Uncertainty principle   states that it is a fundamentally impossible to know precisely both the velocity and postion of a particle at the same time  
🗑
quantum mechanical model of the atom   atomic model in which electrons are treated as waves  
🗑
atomis orbital   a three dimensional region around the nucleaus  
🗑
Principal Quantum numbers   the relative sizes and energies of atomic orbitals  
🗑
Principal energy levels   atoms major energy levels  
🗑
energy sublevels   part of the energy level  
🗑
electron configuration   arrangement of electrons in an atom  
🗑
aufbau principal   each electron occupies the lowest energy orbital avaliable  
🗑
pauli exclusion principal   states that a maximum of two electrons may occupy a single atomis orbital, but only if the electrons have opposite spins  
🗑
hund's rule   single electrons wioth the same spin must occupy each equal energy obital before additional electrons with oppostie spins can occupy the same orbitals  
🗑
valence electrons   electrons in the atom's outermost orbitals  
🗑
electron dot structure   consists of the elements symbol, which represents the stomic nucleus and inner level electrons surrounded by dots representing the atom's valence electrons.  
🗑
