Chemical Ideas 6.1 Light and the electron. Sometimes we use the wave model for light …. λ (lambda)= wavelength. Wavelength increases, Frequency ?. decreases. C. c = λ ν. λ = wavelength m lambda. c = speed of light = 3.00 x 10 8 m s -1. ν = frequency Hz ( or s -1 ) nu. Use m

Sometimes we use the wave model for light … λ (lambda)= wavelength
Wavelength increases, Frequency ? decreases C
c = λν λ = wavelength m lambda c = speed of light = 3.00 x 108 m s-1 ν = frequency Hz ( or s-1 ) nu Use m for λ c λ ν
c = 3.00x108 m s-1 C = λν problems…. Work out λ: 1. If ν is 3.00 m 2. If ν is 30.0 cm 3. If ν is 3.00 mm Work out λ: 4. If ν
Sometimes we use the particle model … Hz h = 6.63 x 10-34 J Hz -1 Planck constant Packages of energy are called photons Light is a stream of photons E = 6.63 x10-34 x 4.5 x 1014 = 3.0 x 10-19 J
E = hν problems … • h = 6.63 x 10-34 J Hz -1 • Planck constant 5. If the frequency is 1.089 x 106 Hz, what is the energy of each photon? 6. If E = 3.65 x 10-20 J per photon, what is the frequency (ν) of the radiation?

Electrons can only exist in fixed energy levels. Electrons absorb energy and move to a higher energy level. ΔE The electrons drop back to a lower energy level and emit energy. The frequency of the radiation emitted depends on ΔE.

Back to the Storyline…. Particles in the chromosphere absorb some of the light Photosphere of hot stars emit visible or UV light
Every element has a different absorption spectrum H He Fe Have a look at assignment 5
Ionisation energy 1 2 3 X (g) X+(g) + e- Ground state electron? Energy needed to remove one e- from 1 mole of atoms of a gaseous element 4
Convergence limit = 3.27 x 1015 Hz 7. Use ΔE = hν to calculate the energy per photon corresponding to this frequency (in J). h = 6.63 x 10-34 J Hz -1. 8. Ionisation energy has units of kJ mol-1. You have calculated the energy required to ionise a single atom. Work out the ionisation energy for hydrogen. L = 6.02 x 1023 mol-1.
