Document Summary

Chapter 6 part 1: electronic structure of atoms. Much of our present understanding of the electronic structure has come from the analysis of light. The light we see with our eyes is known as visible light, it is one type off electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation is also known as radiant energy because it carries energy through space. Ex. radio, microwave, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, x-ray, gamma ray. They all move through vacuum at the peak of 2. 998*e8 m/s. Amplitude- is the height of a crest or the depth of a trough. Wavelength- is the distance between two consecutive crests, most often measured in nanometers (1*e-9 m) Frequency- is the number of wave cycles (successive crest or troughs) that pass a given point in unit time. The frequency unit is the hertz (hz) represents once cycle per second. Visible light only makes up a tiny portion of the entire spectrum, covering only the narrow wavelengths (400-700nm)

LIGHT LAB SPRING 2018 CHEM 1430 Ill. Quantization of Electromagnetic Radiation In 1894, the German physidist, Max Plank, was working for a utility company to maximize visible light output from incandescent lamps using minimum power. Based on theoretical considerations, Planck postulated that electromagnetic energy could only be emitted at discrete values, rather than the continuum of predicted by classical physics, as multiples of the frequency of the radiation. Planck's Postulate took the mathematical form: EÂ·hv where the energy emitted, in Joules, is the product of a constant, h, known as Planck's Constant, and the frequency of the radiation, v. Planck's Postulate was experimentally verified and h found to have the value of 6.626 x 1034 Js(Joule seconds). The idea that electromagnetic radiation energy had specific frequency dependent energy was termed a "quantum of action," a distressing finding for the dlassically trained Planck. Despite his objections, Planck adopted this quantization of energy as a last resort to reconcile experiment with theory. This discovery set the stage for the early understanding of atomic structure, led to the term "photon" to describe the packet of energy carried by light waves, led to an understanding of the photoelectric effect, eventually leading to the development of general quantum theory Planck's Relationship, in combination with the tight equation, c the energy of a photon from frequency or wavelength.

Bohr's Quantum Model for the Hydrogen Atom Ernest Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment of 1911 demonstrated the nuclear structure of the atom. Questions remained as to how electrons were arranged in the atom. The most common belief called for the negatively charged the late 19h century recognized a particle (an electron) traveling around a body (the positively charged nucleus) would continuously radiate energy, slowing over time, eventually falling into the nucleus. Matter would collapse. Page 8 of 12
