Question
Answer
electromagnetic radiation   is a form of energy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels space.  
🗑
wavelength   the length, frenquency, amplitude, and speed.  
🗑
frenquency   is the number of waves that pass a given point per second.  
🗑
amplitude   is the wave's height from the origin to a crest or from the origin to a trough  
🗑
electromagnetic spectrum   encompasses all forms of electomagnetic radiation  
🗑
quantum   is the minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost  
🗑
planck's constant   has the value of 6.626x10^-34 J*s where j is the symbol for joule the SI unit of energy  
🗑
photoelectric effect   photoeletrons are emitted from a metal surface when light of a certain 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 an element is the set of frequencies of the electromagnetic waves emitted by atoms of the element  
🗑
ground state   the lowest allowable energy state of an atom  
🗑
de Brogile equation   predicts that all moving particles have wave characteristics.  
🗑
Heisenberg uncertainty   states that it is fundamentally impossible to know precisely both the velocity and position of a particle at the same time.  
🗑
quantum mechanical model of the atom   the atomic model in which electrons are treated as waves  
🗑
atomic orbital   three dimensional region around the nucleus describes the electron's probable location  
🗑
principla quantum numbers   indicate the relative sizes and energies of atomic orbitals.  
🗑
principal energy levels   n specifies the atoms major energy levels  
🗑
energy sublevels   part of energy levels  
🗑
electron configuration   arrangement of electrons in an atom  
🗑
aufbau principle   states that each electron occupies the lowest energy orbital available.  
🗑
pauli exclusion principle   states that a maximum of two electronsmay occupy a single atomic orbital.  
🗑
hunds rule   states that a singleelectrons with the same spinmust occupyeach equal energy orbital before additional electrons with opposite spins can occupy same orbitals  
🗑
electron dot structure   consists of the elements symbol which represents the atomic nucleus and inner level electrons surrounded by dots representing the atoms valence electrons  
🗑
