1. 1 Chapter 7 Atomic Structure

2. 2 Light n Made up of electromagnetic radiation n Waves of electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other.

3. 3 Parts of a wave Wavelength Frequency = number of cycles in one second Measured in hertz 1 hertz = 1 cycle/second

4. 4 Frequency = Frequency =

5. 5 Kinds of EM waves n There are many different and different and n Radio waves, microwaves, x rays and gamma rays are all examples n Light is only the part our eyes can detect Gamma Rays Radio waves

6. 6 The speed of light n in a vacuum is 2.998 x 10 8 m/s n = c c = c = n What is the wavelength of light with a frequency 5.89 x 10 5 Hz? n What is the frequency of blue light with a wavelength of 484 nm?

7. 7 In 1900 n Matter and energy were seen as different from each other in fundamental ways n Matter was particles n Energy could come in waves, with any frequency. n Max Planck found that the cooling of hot objects couldn’t be explained by viewing energy as a wave.

8. 8 Energy is Quantized Planck found  E came in chunks with size h Planck found  E came in chunks with size h  E = h ν  E = h ν –h is Planck’s constant –h = 6.626 x 10 -34 J s these packets of h ν are called quantum these packets of h ν are called quantum

9. 9 EinsteinEinstein is next Einstein n Said electromagnetic radiation is quantized in particles called photons Each photon has energy = h ν = hc/ Each photon has energy = h ν = hc/ n Combine this with E = mc 2 n you get the apparent mass of a photon m = h / ( c) m = h / ( c)

10. 10 Which is it? n Is energy a wave like light, or a particle? n Yes n Concept is called the Wave -Particle duality. n What about the other way, is matter a wave? n Yes

11. 11 Matter as a wave Using the velocity v instead of the frequency ν we get Using the velocity v instead of the frequency ν we get De Broglie’s equation = h/mv De Broglie’s equation = h/mv n can calculate the wavelength of an object

12. 12 Examples n The laser light of a CD is 7.80 x 10 2 m. What is the frequency of this light? n What is the energy of a photon of this light? n What is the apparent mass of a photon of this light?

13. 13 What is the wavelength? n of an electron with a mass of 9.11 x 10 -31 kg traveling at 1.0 x 10 7 m/s? n Of a softball with a mass of 0.10 kg moving at 125 mi/hr?

14. 14 How do they know? n When light passes through, or reflects off, a series of thinly spaced lines, it creates a rainbow effect n because the waves interfere with each other.

15. 15 A wave moves toward a slit.

18. 18 with two holes Two Curves

19. 19 Two Curves with two holes Interfere with each other

20. 20 Two Curves with two holes Interfere with each other crests add up

21. 21 Several waves

22. 22 Several waves Several Curves

23. 23 Several waves Interference Pattern Several Curves

24. 24 What will an electron do? n It has mass, so it is matter. n A particle can only go through one hole n A wave goes through both holes n Light shows interference patterns interference patterns interference patterns

25. Electron “gun” Electron as Particle

26. Electron “gun” Electron as wave

27. Which did it do?  It made the diffraction pattern  The electron is a wave  Led to Schrödingers equation

28. 28 What will an electron do? n An electron does go though both, and makes an interference pattern. n It behaves like a wave. n Other matter has wavelengths too short to notice. Image

29. 29 Spectrum n The range of frequencies present in light. n White light has a continuous spectrum. n All the colors are possible. n A rainbow.

30. 30 Hydrogen spectrum n Emission spectrum because these are the colors it gives off or emits n Called a line spectrum. n There are just a few discrete lines showing 410 nm 434 nm 486 nm 656 nm Spectrum

31. 31 What this means n Only certain energies are allowed for the hydrogen atom. n Can only give off certain energies. Use  E = h  = hc / Use  E = h  = hc / n Energy in the atom is quantized

32. 32 Niels Bohr n Developed the quantum model of the hydrogen atom. n He said the atom was like a solar system n The electrons were attracted to the nucleus because of opposite charges. n Didn’t fall in to the nucleus because it was moving around

33. 33 The Bohr Ring Atom n He didn’t know why but only certain energies were allowed. n He called these allowed energies energy levels. n Putting energy into the atom moved the electron away from the nucleus n From ground state to excited state. n When it returns to ground state it gives off light of a certain energy

34. 34 The Bohr Ring Atom n = 3 n = 4 n = 2 n = 1

35. 35 The Bohr Model n n is the energy level n for each energy level the energy is n Z is the nuclear charge, which is +1 for hydrogen. n E = -2.178 x 10 -18 J (Z 2 / n 2 ) n n = 1 is called the ground state when the electron is removed, n =  when the electron is removed, n =  n E = 0

36. 36 We are worried about the change n When the electron moves from one energy level to another.  E = E final - E initial  E = E final - E initial  E = -2.178 x 10 -18 J Z 2 (1/ n f 2 - 1/ n i 2 )  E = -2.178 x 10 -18 J Z 2 (1/ n f 2 - 1/ n i 2 )

37. 37 Examples n Calculate the energy need to move an electron from its first energy level to the third energy level. n Calculate the energy released when an electron moves from n= 4 to n=2 in a hydrogen atom. n Calculate the energy released when an electron moves from n= 5 to n=3 in a He +1 ion

38. 38 When is it true? n Only for hydrogen atoms and other monoelectronic species. n Why the negative sign? n To increase the energy of the electron you make it further to the nucleus. n the maximum energy an electron can have is zero, at an infinite distance.

39. 39 The Bohr Model n Doesn’t work n only works for hydrogen atoms n electrons don’t move in circles n the quantization of energy is right, but not because they are circling like planets.

40. 40 The Quantum Mechanical Model n A totally new approach n De Broglie said matter could be like a wave. n De Broglie said they were like standing waves. n The vibrations of a stringed instrument

41. 41

42. 42 What’s possible? n You can only have a standing wave if you have complete waves. n There are only certain allowed waves. n In the atom there are certain allowed waves called electrons. n 1925 Erwin Schroedinger described the wave function of the electron n Much math, but what is important are the solutions

43. 43 Schrödinger’s Equation n The wave function is a F(x, y, z) n Actually F(r,θ,φ) n Solutions to the equation are called orbitals. n These are not Bohr orbits. n Each solution is tied to a certain energy n These are the energy levels AnimationAnimationAnimation

44. 44 There is a limit to what we can know n We can’t know how the electron is moving or how it gets from one energy level to another. n The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle n There is a limit to how well we can know both the position and the momentum of an object.

45. 45

46. 46 Mathematically  x ·  (mv) > h/4   x ·  (mv) > h/4   x is the uncertainty in the position  x is the uncertainty in the position  (mv) is the uncertainty in the momentum.  (mv) is the uncertainty in the momentum. the minimum uncertainty is h/4  the minimum uncertainty is h/4 

47. 47 What does the wave Function mean? n nothing. n it is not possible to visually map it. n The square of the function is the probability of finding an electron near a particular spot. n best way to visualize it is by mapping the places where the electron is likely to be found.

48. 48 Probability Distance from nucleus

49. 49 Sum of all Probabilities Distance from nucleus

50. 50 Defining the size n The nodal surface. n The size that encloses 90% to the total electron probability. n NOT at a certain distance, but a most likely distance. n For the first solution it is a a sphere.
