alkaline earth metals
periodic back and forth motion
wave
distance between two correspond points on a wave
wavelength (lambda)
frequency and wavelength are ____________ operations
inverse
the waves strength
amplitude
rate at which a wave travels
speed
proposed the particle theory of light
Newton
proposed the idea of the electromagnetic wave
Maxwell
the electromagnetic wave is..
an electric component and a magnetic component
symbol for speed of light
c
the arrangement of all possible electromagnetic waves
electromagnetic spectrum
proposed the dual nature of light
Einstein
packet of light or energy
photon
in the equation E = hF, h stands for
Planck’s constant
Planck’s constant
6.63 x 10 ^-34
element used initially with the spectrum
hydrogen
proposed the model of the atom where the electrons lose energy and collide
Rutherford’s model
model after Rutherford’s that proposes energy levels to keep organized orbits
Bohr’s model
the lowest energy level an electron can have
ground state
any energy level higher than the ground state is said to be an
excited state
states that it is impossible to simultaneously determine the position and momentum of an object
Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle
