What are the four parts of a wave?
Crest, Trough, Amplitude, and Wavelength
What’s the lowest part of a wave?
Trough
What’s the highest part of a wave?
Crest
Relationship between wavelength + energy is? (choose between direct and inverse)
Inverse (one decreases, one increases)
relationship between frequency and wavelength is?
inverse
relationship between frequency and energy is?
direct (if one increases, the other increases. same thing with decreases)
is a radio wavelength long or short?
long
how about a gamma ray wavelength?
short
what are the three basic particles of an atom?
proton, neutron, and electron
what is the relative mass of a p+?
1
what is the relative charge of a p+?
1+
where is the location of the proton?
nucleus
how about the relative mass of an e-?
0
and its relative charge?
-1
where is it located?
electron cloud
finally, what’s the relative mass of a neutron?
1
and its relative charge?
0
where’s it located?
electron cloud
list the alkali metals
Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Rubldlum (Rb), Ceslum (Cs), Francium (Fr)
list the alkaline earth metals
Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), Barium (Ba), Radium (Ra)
list the halogens
Fluorine (F), Chlorine (Cl), Bromine (Br), Iodine (I), Astatine (At), Tennessine (Ts)
list the noble gases
Helium (He), Neon (Ne), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (Xe), Radon (Rn), Oganesson (Og
how is line-emission spectra created?
electricity is applied to electrons in their normal state and the electrons move up a higher energy level (their excited state).
what happens when the electrons fall after they move up a higher energy level?
they released electromagnetic energy, and a photon, in the form of light.
