41 views2 pages
Document Summary
Visible light contains a continuous distribution of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. Spectrum- distribution of frequencies of light absorbed or emitted by an object. Due to its wave nature, light can undergo diffraction around an object or through a prism or series of small slits. Each element has a unique line spectrum. Flame test- an analytical procedure used by chemists to detect the presence of particular metal ions, based on the color or the ame produced. Observation of line spectra implies that atoms have discrete(quantized) energy levels. Line spectra are results of light interacting with atoms. The absorption or emission lines are the results of electron transitions: electrons moving from one allowed energy state to another. Atom is similar to planetary system with electron orbiting central nucleus. Only certain speci c radii (orbits) are allowed! Rn = (n2/z) a0 = n2 a0. Where z = nuclear charge of h-atom, a0 = bohr radius (0. 529 ),
