Electromagnetic (EM) waves
• travel in a vacuum (not a vacuum cleaner…vacuum means “space that is empty of matter”); they do NOT need a medium (like air or water) to travel through
• travel at the speed of light

Visible light
• ranges in wavelength from approximately 400 nm (4 x 10-7 m) to 700 nm (7 x 10-7 m).
• Acts as a wave and a particle (photon)• Each color has a unique wavelength, energy,
and frequency range• Makes the colors of the rainbow ROY G BIV

Relationships
• Frequency () and Wavelength () – inverse• Formula for speed demonstrates this
relationship… c =
c = speed of light = 3.00 x 108 m/s = frequency (Hz) = wavelength (m)

Practice Problem
An X-ray has a wavelength of 1.15 x 10-10 m. What is its frequency?
![Page 21: Unit 6: Electrons in Atoms part 1: properties of waves](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568130b1550346895d96c6a5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Relationships• Frequency and Energy - direct
• Max Planck discovered this:– Electromagnetic radiation is emitted in small bursts, called "quantum“
• Think of a “quantum” as a packet of a specific amount– Each burst (quantum) has energy that depends on the frequency
• E = h is the mathematical formula that relates light and energy
E = energy, measured in Joules (J)h represents Planck’s constanth = 6.626 x 10-34 Js = Frequency, measured in Hertz

Why do fireworks burn with different colors?

Why do fireworks burn with different colors?
Fireworks contain metallic salts. Each metal will emit a different color when vaporized.

Photons (particle of light) are emitted from an atom when electrons move from a higher potential energy level to a lower potential energy level

The relative frequency, wavelength and energy of the photon is associated with the color of light emitted.

• Bohr Model
Electron in an Atom
hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu
Hydrogen atom absorbs energy equal to the energy of the photon of violet, blue-green and red light.
This causes the hydrogen electron to move from its ground state to an excited state.
The electron returns to its ground state and releases energy resulting in the emission spectra.

Electrons and LightQuantum Leap
When a valence electron absorbs energy (from heat or electricity), it “jumps” to a higher energy level (excited state). This jump is called a quantum leap.
It is unstable at this excited state and cannot stay there.
When is light emitted? When it falls back to a stable
energy level (ground state), it releases the energy it previously absorbed. This energy is emitted as a photon of light.

Atoms and Photons and Color• Each atom’s electrons “jump” to certain excited
states. • Each “fall” releases a photon of a certain energy,
frequency, and wavelength which correspond to colors of light.
• ATOMIC EMISSION SPECTRUM: the colors of light emitted by an atom’s electrons, and it can be used to identify the element.
