Indivisible Identical React in fixed ratios + Development of Atomic Models + stuff – electrons empty space
Rutherford’s Model: Development of Atomic Models couldn’t explain some properties like light colors.
prism helium (He) lamp prism white light continuous spectrum elements discrete lines of E & f Atomic Emission Spectra (only specific colors of energy & frequency) Demo
H Ne He Ar One element at a time, let’s energize it and view the AES emitted.
A mystery for Niels Bohr. Hydrogen Emission Spectrum
quantized into specific multiples of wavelengths, electrons occupy only specific levels (or shells) of “quantized” energy (& wavelength & frequency) Electrons as Waves but none in between. (1913–Niels Bohr) Bohr’s Shell Model
e – ’s emit (–) energy, move back to inner levels (n=5 to n=2) e – ’s absorb (+) energy, move to outer levels (n=2 to n=5) EXCITED state GROUND state ∆E Which transition shows a light wave of the greatest energy? 3 2 n=5 to n=2
