Studying/ Spectroscopy Flashcards
(53 cards)
Spectroscopy
study of the interaction between light and matter
Electromagnetic Radiation
an oscillating electromagnetic field that propagates (travels) through space
Electric Field= up and down
Magnetic= horizontal
Frequency
The number of waves passing through a single point per unit of time (usually seconds)
v= frequency
speed of light= c
unit= 1/s
The Electromagnetic Spectrum
Radio, Microwave, Infrared, Ultraviolet, X-Ray and Gamma Ray
Radio- Red
Microwave- Orange
Infrared- Yellow
UV: Green
X Ray: Blue
Gamma- Purple
What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Inversely related
Relationship of energy and frequency?
Directly proportional
Relationship between energy and wavelength
inversely
Energy of one photon…
is always less than one joule
Isoelectronic
atoms, ions, or molecules that have the same electronic structure
and the same number of valence electrons.
Ions have elements that they are isoelectronic to
Cation Rules
If in the s+p blocks (main group) then remove electrons as you would expect. Ex. 3p5 - 3p4
If in the d+f blocks remove electron from the highest n value then the highest L.
Ex. 4s2 3d6
4s 3d6
3d6
Ionic
Metal-Metal
- electrons are transferred
- lattice (The lattice is formed because the ions attract each other and form a regular pattern with oppositely charged ions next to each other)
Covalent
Nonmental+ Nonmental
-electrons shared
-molecule
Metallic
Metal+ Metal
- sea of delocalized electrons
Atomic Radius
Z eff- effective nuclear charge and since more electrons are being added to the valence shell. The nuclear charge will be greater than the shielding electrons
Ionic Radius
All cations loose an electron so their nucleus pulls the electrons in making it smaller. All anions have an extra electron so the force is pulled out making the atom larger.
Ionization Energy
The amount of energy needed to remove a valence electron from a gaseous ion to produce a gaseous anion. Gaseous from because electrons are more spread apart and easier to get rid of. As effective nuclear charge increases, the atomic radius decreases and makes it harder for the valence electrons to be removed. Ionization energy is inversely related to atomic radius.
Exception to Ionization Energy
- S and P block exceptions. In the P block the electrons have a higher energy and they are further away from the nucleus than the S block. This means that they are easier to remove. So in cases such as Beryllium and Boron, Boron will have less ionization energy since it is in the P block.
- N and O and P and S. In these cases the P block as 3 orbitals and cases where the orbital has two electrons, they will repel each other making it have less ionization energy. So O and S have less ionization energy.
Second and Third Ionization energy
The second energy and third will always be much greater than the first because it is harder to remove an electron from a positively charged species. Cation
