Q

Hydrogen in an excited state

A

emits a photon to return to a lower energy state

17
Q

Hydrogen only emits

A

Certain colors of visible light when it releases a photon

18
Q

We only see

A

Selected colors, not those that give off white light.

19
Q

Hydrogen has discrete

A

energy levels that are quantized

20
Q

Every hydrogen

A

Falls in the same ways and gives off the same light.

21
Q

Hydrogens energy levels are quantized
What does quantized mean

A

A set of steps, only certain values are allowed.

22
Q

Bohr model
Only works for
Is it correct

A

Electrons orbit the nucleus
Different orbits equal different energy levels
Hydrogen
No

23
Q

Wave mechanical model

A

Electrons do not orbit the nucleus
Predicts the probability of finding an electron at given points around the nucleus.

24
Q

With the wave mechanical model location of electrons is shown using a

A

Probability map.

25
Orbital Do they have exact size Contains
Probability map of an electron No 90% total electron probability
26
Principle energy levels
Discrete energy levels electrons can occupy Lower number lower energy Lower number less distance from nucleus/closer
27
Each energy level can be divided into More energy =
Sub levels More sub levels
28
What are the 4 sub levels
S p d f
29
How many orbitals are in each sub level How many electrons per orbital
S 1 P 3 D 5 F 7 2 electrons per orbital
30
Number of sublevels ____ number of energy levels
Equals
31
What is the shape of each orbital
S sphere P Dumbell D Clover F Hard to visualize
32
Electrons want to be Electrons have
As close to nucleus as possible Spin
33
Wave mechanical model can be applied
To all atoms
34
Pauli Exclusion Principle-
2 electrons can occupy an orbital only if they have opposite spin
35
Electron configuration
The way electrons are arranged around the nucleus Predicts
36
Ionization energy More attraction
Energy required to remove outermost electron Harder to remove
37
What does the atomic mass on the periodic table represent
weighted average mass of all the naturally occurring isotopes of that element
