Document Summary

Einstein discovered that light is quantized the wave particle duality is implicated in the nature of light and matter. Planck solved the problem by assuming taht energy did not increase in a continuous manner. Intuition: energy increases smoothly like turning up volume. the increase is continuous not graduated what planck found: energy is quantized h = planck"s constant 6. 626x10 31 js v = frequency (s ) The energy value could be any multiple of hv but could never be anything in between quantized: subdivided into small discrete amounts; not continuous. Einstein was the rst to apply planck"s concept of quantization --to explain the photo electric e ect. How a photocell works: light strikes a metal surface electrons are released from the metal and strike another metal the external circuit is complete and a current is registered on an ammeter. Photoelectric e ect: the emission of electrons from matter upon the absorption of electromagnetic radiation.

CHEM 1430 LIGHT LAB SPRING 2018 A Danish physicist, Neils Bohr, a post-doctoral student in J. J. Thomson's lab and friend of Rutherford, took up the problem of electron arrangement within the atom. Bohr's breakthrough was recognizing Balmer's fixed emission wavelengths, when taken with Planck's Relationship, led to the conclusion the shells, like the radiation emitted, must be quantized (have set, specific energles). Bohr proposed the electrons circulated about the madeus, much like planets cirde surãin seres of concentric shells of increasing size. Each shell stood at a fixed (set) distance from the nucleus with the shell nearest the nucleus taking the m and a shell further away taking the n in the B-R equation. The integral values of m and n taken with the discrete wavelength led Bohr to propose the shells were "quantized," meaning electrons could only exist at the surface of the shells. When an electron moved from a high shell, n, to a low shell, m, light of a foxed wavelength was emitted Bohr reasoned the shells were special due to this quantized nature. An electron in a shell occupied what Bohr described as a "steady state," meaning the electron could circulate about the nucleus without loss or gain of energy. This steady state proposition, which conflicted with classical physics, could not be explained by then available data but was required for Bohr's proposed structure to be stable. Later work revealed the wave-particle duality of the electron which lead to acceptance of the Steady State Proposition. The energy of an electron in any shell, represented by n, can be calculated using an equation derived from combining the Balmer-Rydberg and Planck equations. The energy of an electron in the no shell is given by é¦¯.h RL where hcR,-2.18x10-*) where Ru, is the Rydberg's Constant for the hydrogen atom, h is Planck's Constant and c is the speed of light NOTE: The energy is given a nexative value to refect the stabillting, attractive force between the negatively charged electron and the positively charged nucleus. As the shell number n increases, the attractive force decreases leading to a rising shell energies (E, increases, values less negative).
