position of electrons definitions

Question 1

paschen series

Answer 1

paschen series is when an electron falls from a higher energy level to n=3 and we get a line in the infra red spectrum

Question 2

balmer series

Answer 2

balmer series is when an electron falls from a higher energy level to n=2 and we get a line in the visible spectrum

Question 3

lyman series

Answer 3

lyman series is when an electron falls from a higher energy level to n=1 and we get a line in the ultraviolet spectrum

Question 4

heisenberg’s uncertainty principle

Answer 4

heisenberg’s uncertainty principle states that it is impossible to measure at the same time both the velocity and position of an electron

Question 5

atomic orbital

Answer 5

an atomic orbital is a region in space surrounding a nucleus in which there is a high probability of finding an electron
