Visible Light

We are all familiar with light but what is “visible” is just a very, very small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum

What colors make up the rainbow?

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet (ROYGBIV)

The E-M Spectrum

Gamma Rays(Very Harmful / Cancerous)

X-rays(Cancerous in large doses; small doses medical scanning)

Ultraviolet ( not as harmful - sunburn; black lights)

Infrared(Heat, communication)

Microwaves(Cooking, communications)

Radio Rays(TV, Radio, other communications)

The Development of a New Atomic Model

Wavelength () - length of one complete wave

Frequency () - # of waves that pass a point during a certain time period hertz (Hz) = 1/s

Amplitude (A) - distance from the origin to the trough or crest

Electromagnetic Spectrum

Frequency & wavelength are inversely proportional

c = c: speed of light (3.00 108 m/s): wavelength (m, nm, etc.): frequency (Hz)

Electromagnetic Spectrum

GIVEN: = ? = 434 nm = 4.34 10-7 mc = 3.00 108 m/s

WORK: = c

= 3.00 108 m/s 4.34 10-7 m

= 6.91 1014 Hz

EX: Find the frequency of a photon with a wavelength of 434 nm.

So why is the electromagnetic spectrum so important to chemistry?

• Why is the steel emitting light when it is heated?

• We take it for granted that when things get hot they turn red then orange and finally white; but that isn’t good enough any more

Black Body Radiation Colors


Incandescence is heat made visible – the process of turning heat energy into light energy.

Our usage of terms like "red hot," "white hot," and so on, is part of the color sequence black, red, orange, yellow, white, and bluish white, seen as an object is heated to successively higher temperatures.


The light produced consists of photons emitted when atoms and molecules release part of their thermal vibration energy.

For increasing temperatures, the sequence of radiated colors is: black, red, orange, yellow-white, bluish-white.

Heat and Light

Planck (1900)

Observed - emission of light from hot objects

Concluded - energy is emitted in small, specific amounts (quanta)

Quantum - minimum amount of energy change

Energy and Light

E: energy (J, joules)h: Planck’s constant (6.6262 10-34 J·s): frequency (Hz)

E = h

The energy of a photon is proportional to its frequency.

Energy and Light

GIVEN:E = ? = 4.57 1014 Hzh = 6.6262 10-34 J·s

WORK:E = h

E = (6.6262 10-34 J·s)(4.57 1014 Hz)

E = 3.03 10-19 J

EX: Find the energy of a red photon with a frequency of 4.57 1014 Hz.

Niels Bohr and the Bohr model of the atomBohr hypothesized that instead of haphazardly orbiting the nucleus, electrons had clearly defined orbits – very similar to the planetary orbits circling our sun

His model is (cleverly) named the Planetary Model

Niels Bohr

Bohr Model (1913)

Bohr’s Proof

Bohr said this: If you assume that the electrons have clearly defined orbits that are congruent to the energy levels…

Bohr’s Proof

… then when an electron gets “excited” it jumps to a higher energy level. When it “relaxes” it emits a certain wavelength of light.

• Bohr showed the energy of an electron in an atom is quantized, which means it has a particular numerical value, not some arbitrary number.

Emission Spectrum of an Element

410 nm 434 nm 486 nm 656 nm

1 nm = 1 x 10-9 m = “a billionth of a meter”

Continuous and Line Spectra

Hydrogen to Steel

If Hydrogen emits 4 distinct wavelengths of light when its one electron is excited what can we extrapolate to that of steel which is made mostly of iron?

Good News Bad News

Good News

Bohr’s Model works and moves us along in the development of the Atomic Theory

End of this little unit

Bad (Frustrating) News

Lots of Math

Everything I taught you only works for Hydrogen and therefore is completely wrong and obsolete.

Check for Understanding

What is the frequency of a radar photon with an energy of 7.2 x 10-24 J?

What is the frequency of light having a wavelength of 6.20x10-7m?

Your Current View of the Atom

electrons

nucleus

Again… so why is it so important to chemistry?

Einstein (1905) Observed - photoelectric effect

Again… so why is it so important to chemistry?

Einstein (1905) Concluded - light has properties of both waves

and particles

“wave-particle duality”

Photon - particle of light that carries a quantum of energy

Quantum Mechanical Model

Modern atomic theory describes the electronic structure of the atom as the probability of finding electrons within certain regions of space (orbitals).

Modern View

The atom is mostly empty space

Two regions Nucleus

protons and neutrons Electron cloud

region where you might find an electron

Also called the electron cloud model

Modern View of Atom

e-e- Ground state

Excited state

Electrons can only be atspecific energy levels,NOT between levels.

Filling Rules for Electron Orbitals

Aufbau Principle: Electrons are added one at a time to the lowest energy orbitals available until all the electrons of the atom have been accounted for.

Pauli Exclusion Principle: An orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.To occupy the same orbital, two electrons must spin in opposite directions.

Hund’s Rule: Electrons occupy equal-energy orbitals so that a maximum number of unpaired electrons results.
