Properties of Waves

Long wavelength = low frequency

Short wavelength = high frequency

Units: wavelength = meters (m)

frequency = cycles per second or Hertz (s-1)

wavelength (m) x frequency (s-1) = velocity (m/s)

· = u = wavelength, = frequency, u = velocity

Photoelectric Effect• phenomenon of light striking a metal surface and

producing an electric current (flow of electrons).

• If radiation below threshold energy, no electrons released.

Explained by a new theory: Quantum Theory

Blackbody Radiation and the Photoelectric Effect

• Radiant energy is “quantized”– Having values restricted to whole-number

multiples of a specific base value.

• Quantum = smallest discrete quantity of energy.

• Photon = a quantum of electromagnetic radiation

Quantized States

Quantized states: discrete energy levels.

Continuum states: smooth transition between levels.

The energy of the photon is given by Planck’s Equation.

E = h where h = 6.626 × 10−34 J∙s (Planck’s constant)

The equation can be rewritten to include wavelength, and the velocity is equal to the speed of light, c

λν = c

Sample Exercise 3.2 – Calculating the Energy of Photons

Ultra-high-definition televisions use tiny particles called quantum dots to more accurately reproduce the colors of transmitted images. The wavelengths of the light produced by quantum dots depend on their size. Figure 3.14 contains a plot of emission intensity as a function of wavelength for three quantum dots whose relative sizes are represented by the sizes of the spheres. What is the energy of a photon of light from the largest quantum dot that has a wavelength of 640 nm?

where n = “principle quantum number” = 1, 2, 3….

towards the positive charge of the nucleus.

Sample Exercise 3.5

How much energy is required to ionize a ground-state hydrogen atom? Put another way, what is the ionization energy of hydrogen?

Strengths and Weaknesses of the Bohr Model

• Strengths:• Accurately predicts energy needed to remove an

electron from an atom (ionization).

• Allowed scientists to begin using quantum theory to explain matter at atomic level.

• Limitations:• Applies only to one-electron atoms/ions; does not

account for spectra of multielectron atoms.

• Movement of electrons in atoms is less clearly defined than Bohr allowed.

Several blind men were asked to describe an elephant. Each tried to determine

what the elephant was like by touching it. The first blind man said the elephant

was like a tree trunk; he had felt the elephant's massive leg. The second blind

man disagreed, saying that the elephant was like a rope, having grasped the

elephant's tail. The third blind man had felt the elephant's ear, and likened the

elephant to a palm leaf, while the fourth, holding the beast's trunk, contended

that the elephant was more like a snake. Of course each blind man was giving a

good description of that one aspect of the elephant that he was observing, but

none was entirely correct. In much the same way, we use the wave and particle

analogies to describe different manifestations of the phenomenon that we call

radiant energy, because as yet we have no single qualitative analogy that will

explain all of our observations.

We can never SIMULTANEOUSLY know with absolute

precision both the exact position (x), and momentum

(p = mass·velocity or mv), of the electron.

If one uncertainty gets very small, then the other becomes

corresponding larger. If we try to pinpoint the electron momentum,

it's position becomes "fuzzy". So we assign a probability to where the

electron is found = atomic orbital.

The electron as a Standing Wave

E. Schrödinger (1927)

▪ mathematical treatment results in a “wave function”,

▪ = the complete description of electron position and energy

▪ electrons are found within 3-D “shells”, not 2-D Bohr orbits

▪ shells contain atomic “orbitals” (s, p, d, f)

▪Each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons

▪The probability of finding the electron = 2

▪Probabilities are required because of “Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle”

Shorthand description of orbital occupancy

1. No more than 2 electrons maximum per orbital

2. Electrons occupy orbitals in such a way to minimize the

total energy of the atom = “Aufbau Principle”

(use filling order diagram)

3. No 2 electrons can have the same 4 quantum numbers

= “Pauli Exclusion Principle” (pair electron spins)

ms = +1/2

spin “up”

ms = -1/2

spin

“down”

•No two electrons in an atom can have the

same set of four quantum numbers (n, l, ml, ms)

•electrons must "pair up" before entering the

same orbital

orbitals first before pairing up = “Hund’s Rule”

Electron Shells and Orbitals

• Orbitals that have the exact same energy level are called degenerate.

• Core electrons are those in the filled, inner shells in an atom and are not involved in chemical reactions.

• Valence electrons are those in the outermost shell of an atom and have the most influence on the atom’s chemical behavior.

state to form an anion.

F (g) + e- → F-(g) EA = -328 kJ/mol
