What is the significance of the boundary of an electron cloud?

An electron is found 90% of the time inside the boundary. However, there is no actual boundary to an electron cloud because there is a slight chance of the electron being a considerable distance away from the nucleus. Thus, the attempts to show probabilities as a fuzzy cloud are limited to where the electron may be 90% of the time.

What are the three rules that govern the filling of atomic orbitals by electrons?

Aufbau Principle-electrons occupy the orbitals of lowest energy first. Pauli Exclusion Principle- an atomic orbital may describe at most two electrons.

What three very important atomic rules are compared to house/hotel rules?

Aufbau, Pauli, and Hund's

Explain the difference between a photon and a quantum

Basically, a quantum is a discrete amount of energy, while photons are light quanta. A photon is a quanta of light energy that behaves as a particle. A quantum is the amount of energy needed for an electron to move from one energy level to another. A quantum is a discrete bundle of energy. It can be delivered by a photon. A quantum leap in an atom is when a photon carrying just the right amount of energy is absorbed by the atom and its electron jumps to a higher quantum level or higher orbital.

Explain the difference between the energy lost or gained by an atom according to the laws of classical physics and according to the quantum model of the atom

What is element 27, its abbreviation, and what is its electron configuration?

Cobalt; Co; 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^7 4s^2

What is element 29, its abbreviation, and what is its electron configuration?

Copper; Cu; 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^10 4s^1

Relate Cause and Effect Why do electrons occupy equal energy orbitals singly before beginning to pair up?

Electrons occupy orbitals of the same energy in a way that makes the number of electrons with the same spin directions as large as possible. Electrons then occupy each orbital so that their spins are paired with the first electrons in the orbital, after each orbital has one electron each.

What did Bohr assume about the motion of electrons?

His main proposal was that electrons traveled in circular paths around the nucleus. His model assumed that the electrons of an atom are found in specific orbitals around the nucleus, having fixed energy levels. The electrons can't exist between energy levels, but can move to different energy levels with the right quanta of energy.

State the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.

It is impossible to know both the velocity and the position of a particle at the same time.

Predict Traditional cooking methods make use of infrared radiation (heat). Microwave radiation cooks food faster. Could radio waves be used for cooking? Explain.

Radio waves have the lowest energy in the electromagnetic spectrum and, thus, it wouldn't be energetic enough to cook food. Also, if microwaves cook food faster than infrared radiation, than radio waves would cook food even faster.

Describe Rutherford's model of the atom and compare it with the model proposed by his student Niels Bohr.

Rutherford's model of the atom described negatively-charged electron particles freely/randomly moving around the nucleus, which contained positively-charged protons and neutrally-charged neutrons. Bohr's model proposed that electrons are found only in specific orbits around the nucleus, these orbits having fixed energy levels. The electrons must gain or lose just the right quantum of energy to move from one energy level to another. These energy levels are not equally spaced, and the amount of energy an electron gains or loses isn't always the same either. The higher the energy level, the closer the energy levels are to each other.

What is the main difference of Rutherford's model and Bohr's model?

Rutherford= had electrons randomly circling the nucleus Bohr= specific distance and orbits of electrons

What are the four energy levels?

S, P, D, and F

What is element 21, its abbreviation, and what is its electron configuration?

Evaluate and Revise Orbital diagrams for the ground states of two elements are shown below. Each diagram shows something that is incorrect. Identify the error in each diagram and then draw the correct diagram. a. Nitrogen b. Magnesium

Sorry, figure it out on your own

Compare Explain the difference between an orbit in the Bohr model and an orbital in the quantum mechanical model of the atom.

The Bohr model said that electrons could only be found on specific orbits. Each orbit would have a fixed energy level. The electrons could transition to the different energy levels by gaining or losing enough energy. Unlike the Bohr model, the quantum mechanical model does not specify an exact path that an electron must take around the nucleus. This model's orbitals are described as the probability of finding electrons at various locations around the nucleus.

Why was Rutherford's model of the atom known as the planetary model?

The atomic model that Rutherford proposed was called the planetary model because it showed the electrons moving around the nucleus like the planets orbit the Sun.

What is meant by the frequency of a wave? What are the units of frequency? Describe the relationship between frequency and wavelength.

The frequency of a wave represents the number of wave cycles that pass a given point per unit of time. The SI basic unit of cycles per second for frequency is Hertz, which can be expressed as a reciprocal second (s^-1). The wavelength (represented by the upside down y) is the distance between the crests of a wave. The frequency (represented by v), however, is the number of wave cycles to pass a given point per unit of time. The product of wavelength and frequency is the constant ( c) speed of light.

What happens when a hydrogen atom absorbs a quantum of energy?

The hydrogen atom's electron would raise (or excite) to a higher energy level, when the atom absorbs a quantum of energy. The electron loses energy by emitting light when it returns to a lower energy level.

White light is viewed in a spectroscope after passing through sodium vapor too cool to emit light. The spectrum is continuous except for a dark line at 589 nm. How can you explain this observation? (Hint: Recall from Sample Problem 5.2 that the atomic emission spectrum of sodium exhibits a strong yellow line at 589 nm.)

The outermost electron of sodium absorbs photons of wavelength 589 nm as it jumps to a higher energy level, but the electron is not energetic enough to emit a photon at this wavelength. Thus, the white light spectrum exhibits a dark line at 589 nm.

What is meant by 3p3?

The p orbitals in the third quantum level have three electrons. The first "3" represents the principal energy level. The "p" represents the type of orbital. The second "3" refers to the number of electrons in that sublevel. This altogether is meant to describe the location of electron(s) at a certain energy level and sublevel.

Draw Conclusions Think about the currently accepted models of the atom and of light. In what ways do these models seem strange to you? Why are these models not exact or definite?

This is your own opinion mostly

What is element 23, its abbreviation, and what is its electron configuration?

Vanadium; V; 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^3 4s^2

How did Planck influence the development of modern atomic theory?

With Planck's constant (E=hv), which shows that the amount of radiant energy (E) of a single quantum absorbed or emitted by a body is proportional to the frequency of radiation (v), many scientist began to use it to explain many experimental observations that couldn't be explained by classical physics. Einstein also used his theory/constant to explain the photoelectric effect, which also couldn't be explained by classical physics that said under even weak light of any wavelength, an electron in a metal should eventually collect enough energy to be ejected. Einstein realized that light behaves both as waves and particles (photons), and that there's a minimal threshold value of energy of the photoelectric effect. With this idea that light, originally thought as a wave of energy, has particle properties also, opened up the idea that matter (like electrons and atoms) could have wave-like properties. Thsu, bringing about the use of using wavelengths, frequencies, and etc. to identify elements.
