A 3-dimensional region around a nucleus where an electron may be found
What is an orbital?
The first quantum number tells us this
What energy level is the electron in?
He discovered the electron.
Who is JJ Thomson?
There are this many type(s) of p orbitals.
What is 3?
This is the distance from one peak to the next consecutive peak of a wave.
What is a wavelength?
This is why we see light from flame tests or fireworks.
What is electrons falling down from higher energy levels (excited state) to lower energy level (ground state)?
If one electron in an orbital is spinning in a clockwise direction, the second is spinning this way.
What is counterclockwise?
He did the gold foil experiment.
Who is Ernest Rutherford?
Any single orbital can hold a max of this many electrons.
What is 2?
What is the only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see with our human eyes?
What is visible light?
Atoms are mostly this.
What is empty space?
This quantum number tells us s, p, d or f.
What is the 2nd quantum number (or type/shape of orbital)?
He did the cathode ray tube experiment.
Who is JJ Thomson?
These orbitals are shaped like dumbbells.
What are p-orbitals?
This tells us how many waves pass a given point in 1 second.
What is frequency?
These orbitals are shaped like 4-leaf clovers.
What are d-orbitals?
The 3rd quantum number tells us this.
What is orientation of the orbital?
He said electrons with fixed energy are found circling in orbits around nucleus.
Who is Bohr?
There are 5 types of this orbital.
What is d?
This is how wavelength and frequency are related.
What is inversely?
The minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom
What is a quantum?
The 4th quantum number tells us this.
What is the magnetic spin of the electron (clockwise or counterclockwise)?
He came up with the QMM, the model of the atom that we use today.
Who is Schrodinger?
f-orbitals (all combined) can hold a total of this many electrons.
What is 14?
This is how wavelength and energy of light are related.
What is inversely?
