Warm-Up What is the difference between the Bohr’s Model of the Atom and the Quantum Model of the atom. What wavelength is associated with an electron that falls from n=3to n=2? What color of the visible light spectrum would that be associated with?
Part of the electromagnetic spectrum
Arranged from longest to shortest wavelength
How do you convert from nanometers to meters? So 656 nm is how many meters? What color of light is this?
- 2.179×10⁻¹⁸ = Rydberg constant

proposed that electrons have wave properties 1924 – Louis de Broglie proposed that electrons have wave properties
A particle of matter has a wavelength! 1924 – Louis de Broglie Any particle of mass m moving with a velocity v will have a de Broglie wavelength given by the following equation: = h mv A particle of matter has a wavelength!
