Atomic Theory Flashcards
(24 cards)
Wave length
Distance from peak to peak
Radiation
Waves of energy (thing)
Radioactive
Element released from nucleus (action)
Nuclear Fission
Break atom into several parts
Alpha decay
Release 2 Neutron 2 Proton
Beta decay
Release single electron
Gamma decay
Release pure Energy
Decay
Change in atom, unstable to stable atom
Proton
Atomic number
Neutron
Atomic mass - atomic number
Electron
Atomic number
Charge
Proton - electron (the neg pos stuff, + is minus - is plus)
Mass number
Atomic mass (proton + neutron)
Alpha decay
4 / 2 positive charge
Beta decay
0 / -1 negative charge
Gamma Decay
0 / 0 No charge
Nanometer to meter
1nm = 1 x 10 ^-9 m
Find energy know frequency
E = h • f
Find wavelength know frequency
C = f • 人
Find energy know wavelength
E = hc/ 入
Planck constant
H : 6.63 x 10^-34
Speed of light
C : 3 x 10^8
Wave length
入 : in meter
Energy
E : in joules (J)
