Light
• The study of light led to the development of the quantum mechanical model.
• Light is a kind of electromagnetic radiation.• Electromagnetic radiation includes many types:
gamma rays, x-rays, radio waves…• Speed of light = 2.998 x 10⁸ m/s, and is
abbreviated “c”• All electromagnetic radiation travels at this
same rate when measured in a vacuum

Electromagnetic radiation propagates through space as a wave moving at the speed of light
C = speed of light, a constant (2.998 x 10 ⁸ m/s)λ (lambda) = wavelength, in metersv (nu) = frequency, in units of hertz (hz or sec⁻ᴵ)

Wavelength and Frequency
• Are inversely related• Different frequencies of light are different
colors of light.• There is a wide variety of frequencies• The whole range is called a spectrum
![Page 8: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sample ProblemUse Equation: c = λ v
Calculating the Wavelength of Light
– Calculate the wavelength of a yellow light emitted by a sodium lamp if the frequency of the radiation is 5.10 x 10ᴵ⁴ Hz.
Analyze:• Know:
– Frequency (v) = 5.10x10ᴵ⁴– c = 2.998 x 10⁸
• Unknown:– Wavelength (λ) = ? m

Atomic Spectra
• White light is made up of all the colors of the visible spectrum.
• Passing through a prism separates the light into different colors.
![Page 12: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
If the light is not white
• By heating a gas with electricity we can get it to five off colors.
• Passing this light through a prism does something different

Atomic Spectrum
• Each element gives off its own characteristic colors.
• Can be used to identify the atom.
• This is how we know what stars are made of.

Atomic Emission Spectrum
• Unique to each element, like fingerprints!
• Very useful for identifying elements.

Light is a Particle?
• Energy is quantized.• Light is a form of energy.• Therefore, light must be quantized.• These smallest pieces of light are called
photons.• Photoelectric effect? Albert Einstein• Energy and frequency: directly related.
![Page 16: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The energy (E) of electromagnetic radiation is directly proportional to the frequency (v) of the radiation.
Equation: E = hv
E = Energy, in units of Joules (kg•m²/s²(Joule is the metric unit of energy)
h = Planck’s constant (6.626 x 10 ¯³⁴ J•s)v = frequency, in units of hertz (hz, sec¯ᴵ)

Chapter 5 Math
• There are two equations:
1) c = λ v2) E = hv
Know these!!

Examples
1. What is the wavelength of blue light with a frequency of 8.3 x 10ᴵ⁵ hz?
2. What is the frequency of red light with a wavelength of 4.2 x 10¯⁵ m?
3. What is the energy of a photon of each of the above?

Explanation of atomic spectra
• When we write electron configurations, we are writing the lowest energy.
• The energy level, and where the electron starts from, is called it’s ground state – the lowest energy level.
![Page 20: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Changing the energy
• Let’s look at a hydrogen atom, with only one electron, and in the first energy level.
![Page 21: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Changing the energy
• Heat, electricity, or light can move the electron up to different energy levels. The electron is now said to be “excited”.
![Page 22: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Changing the energy
• As the electron falls back to the ground state, it gives the energy back as LIGHT.
![Page 23: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Changing the energy
• They may fall down in specific steps.• Each step has a different energy.
![Page 24: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
![Page 25: Section 5.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022012307/56649e5d5503460f94b5548a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• The further they fall, more energy is released and the higher the frequency.
• This is a simplified explanation!!• The orbitals also have different energies inside
energy levels.• All electrons can move around.
