Bohr Model
Einstein Said So
100

The formula for calculating energy.

E = hv

100
This color has the highest wavelength.

Red

100

Proposed that electrons should be considered waves.

Louis de Broglie

100

When light shines on a metal and it has enough energy to cause emission of electrons.

The Photoelectric Effect

100
The minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom.

Quantum

200

The unit for measuring energy.

Joules (J)

200

This color has the highest frequency.

Violet

200

Said that it is impossible to know both the energy and position of an electron at the same time.

Werner Heisenberg

200

An electron that absorbs energy goes to __________ state.

Excited

200

These elements have a line emission spectrum exactly like hydrogen.

None--all elements are unique.

300

Describes mathematically the wave properties of electrons.

Quantum Theory

300

This comes after red in order of increasing wavelength.

Infrared
300

Stated that electrons have a dual wave-particle nature.

Albert Einstein

300

An electron that emits energy goes to __________ state.

Ground

300

A particle of electromagnetic radiation that has zero mass and carries a quantum of energy.

Photon

400

All colors of light travel at this speed.

Speed of light = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s

400

This comes after violet light in order of increasing frequency.

Ultraviolet

400

Developed equations that solved for the energy of an electron and its probable location.

Erwin Schrodinger

400

The problem with Bohr's model of the atom.

It did not apply to atoms with more than one electron.

400

A region in the atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons.

Orbital

500

Calculate the energy of a photon of electromagnetic radiation that has a frequency of 9.50 x 10^13 Hz.

E = 6.29 x 10^-20 J

500

List the colors in order from highest frequency to lowest frequency.

Violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, red

500

Created a model of the atom using orbits as paths for electrons with nothing in between.
