This is the color of visible light that has the lowest frequency.
What is red?
The energy of an electron is said to be _________, meaning that it can only have certain values.
What is quantized?
This is the main difference between an orbit and an orbital.
What is a 2D/3D shape?
DOUBLE JEOPARDY!
This classification or group of elements has 5 electrons in the highest-energy p sublevel.
What is group 5A (15) or halogens?
Wavelength & frequency have this kind of relationship.
What is an inverse relationship?
This is the lowest possible principal energy level (answer as n=x).
What is n=1?
This is the general "shape" of the s orbital.
What is a sphere?
This group of elements has only one electron in their highest-energy s sublevel.
What is group 1A (1) or the alkali metals?
Energy and frequency have this kind of relationship.
What is a direct relationship?
When an electron moves into a higher energy orbital, it is said to be in an _______ state.
What is excited or excitation?
Describe the general "shape" of a p orbital.
What is a figure-8 or dumbbell?
These types of elements have partially filled d orbitals.
What are transition metals?
This type of electromagnetic radiation has a wavelength just slightly longer than that of red light.
What is infrared?
The light emitted when an electron moves from a higher-energy orbital to a lower-energy orbital is called this kind of spectrum.
What is a line spectrum?
This orbital is most closely associated with having the shape of a four-leaf clover.
What is the d orbital?
These types of elements have partially filled f orbitals.
What are lanthanides and actinides?
This type of electromagnetic radiation has a wavelength that is slightly shorter than that of violet light.
What is ultraviolet?
The change in energy (delta E) when an electron moves from the n=5 orbital to the n=3 orbital is equal to this number.
What is n=2?
Name one way in which a 2p and 3p orbital differ.
Acceptable answers:
-Size (3p is larger)
-Energy (3p is higher energy)
-Distance from nucleus (2p is closer to the nucleus)
This element has two electrons in the 3p sublevel.
What is silicon?
