100

a specific, quantized amount of energy that an electron can have within an atom or molecule; discrete levels are where electrons can exist

What is an Energy Level

100

what element? [He] 2s2 2p2

Carbon

100

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

Sodium

100

The longest wavelengths are seen as which color on the visible light spectrum?

Red

100

Which atom is bigger- Na or Mg?

Na

200

How many electrons can the d orbitals/sublevel hold?

10

200

What rule is this? Electrons occupy the orbitals of the lowest energy levels first

Aufbau

200
[Ar] 4s2
What is Calcium(Cl)
200

The shortest wavelengths are seen as which color on the visible spectrum?

Violet

200

which element has the highest ionization energy? Ge, Se, Cu, Br, Co

Br

300

What is the least energetic orbital?

s

300

What rule? Each atomic orbital can "hold" 2 electrons and in order to occupy the same orbital they must have different quantum numbers/spins

Pauli Exclusion Principle

300

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

K

What is the relationship between energy and wavelength?

as wavelength increases, energy decreases, and as wavelength decreases, energy increases. Inverse

300

Which element has the largest atomic size- He, F, Ar, or Na?

Na
