Correct Answers | Latest Edition
1. Uncertainty Principle - ANSWER - Position and momentum of an electron
cannot be looked at at the same time and know both values with certainty
- Comes from uncertainty of math
- Werner Heisenberg
2. Wave equation - ANSWER - Erwin Schrödinger
- Mathematical expression used to give a three-dimensional map of
where an electron is most probably located in the atom: orbital
- Reproduces Bohr's expression for the energy not only for hydrogen
but for all atoms
- Describes the location, energy, and properties of electrons
3. Principle Quantum Number - ANSWER - Shell
- 'n'
- Energy level
- Specifies the size of the orbital
- n= 1 to infinity
4. Waves - ANSWER Oscillation or periodic movement that can transport
energy from one point space to another
5. Electromagnetic Waves - ANSWER Consist of an electric and magnetic
field, oscillating perpendicular to one another as well as the direction of
travel
,6. Wavelength - ANSWER - Distance between two consecutive peaks or
troughs in a wave
- Measured in meters
7. Frequency - ANSWER - Number of wave cycles (complete wavelengths)
that pass a specified point in space in a specified amount of time
- Measured in hertz, Hz (cycles per second, 1/s or s^-1)
8. Amplitude - ANSWER Magnitude of the wave's displacement, which is one
half the height between the peaks and troughs
9. Electromagnetic Spectrum - ANSWER Range of energies that
electromagnetic radiation can comprise, including radio, microwaves,
infrared, visible, ultraviolet, x-rays and gamma rays
10.Isaac Newton - ANSWER When trying to separate the colors of light it
went in a straight line the way particles do so light was made of particles
11.Christian Huygens - ANSWER Reflection and refraction leading him to
saying light was waves
12.Thomas Young - ANSWER - Double slit experiment
- Light shown through both slits should have appeared as two line of
viewing screen but instead their were multiple lines showing that
Light was made of waves
13.James Clerk Maxwell - ANSWER - Light is made of two waves; electric
and magnetic field
- First colored photo
