Study Notes
Orbital Energy Levels
- Order of increasing energy for orbitals:
- (a) 1s < 2s < 2p < 3s
- (b) 3s < 3p < 4s < 4d
- (c) 5p < 4d < 5d < 4f < 6s
- (d) 5f < 6d < 7s < 7p
Energy Comparisons
- Lowest energy orbital among 4d, 4f, 5s, 5p is 4f.
- Highest energy orbital among 5p, 5d, 5f, 6s, 6p is 5f.
Deflection in Electric Field
- Neutron does not show deflection in an electric field, unlike protons, cathode rays, and electrons.
Atomic Mass and Atomic Number
- An atom with mass number 13 and 7 neutrons has an atomic number of 6 (number of protons).
Wavelength and Energy of Radiation
- Arrange wavelengths in increasing energy:
- λ(A) = 300 nm < λ(B) = 300 µm < λ(D) = 30 Å < λ(C) = 3 nm.
Electronic Configuration of Copper
- Copper has a valence shell configuration of 3d10 4s1, explained by stability due to complete d subshell.
Balmer Series Transition
- The Balmer series corresponds to transitions from n1 = 2 to n2 = 3, 4, ...
- Wavenumber for transition to n=4 can be calculated using Rydberg's constant: RH = 109677 cm–1.
De Broglie Wavelength of a Cricket Ball
- Calculate the wavelength of a 100 g cricket ball thrown at 100 km/h.
- Due to its large mass, wave nature is negligible.
Experimental Evidence for Quantized Energies
- Electronic energies in an atom are supported by spectroscopic data showing distinct energy levels.
Matter Waves and Velocity Comparison
- Electrons exhibit higher velocity compared to protons for producing matter waves of the same wavelength.
Wavelength Calculation in Electromagnetic Radiation
- Determine wavelength from provided specifications in electromagnetic waves.
Absorption of Light by Chlorophyll
- Chlorophyll absorbs light at a frequency of 4.620 × 10^14 Hz, translating to a specific wavelength.
Orbit vs. Orbital
- "Orbit" refers to a defined path of an electron, while "orbital" describes the probability distribution of electron locations.
Uncertainty Principle and Uncertainty Calculations
- Example of a table-tennis ball to illustrate uncertainties in speed (4% of 90 m/s) and position.
Significance of Uncertainty Principle
- The principle applies mainly to microscopic particles, causing negligible effects for macroscopic objects.
Effects of Electron Repulsion in Multi-electron Atoms
- In multi-electron atoms, electron repulsion raises energy levels of electrons in the same principal quantum number.
Ground State Electronic Configuration Matching
- Various atomic configurations can be matched with their respective ground state electronic configurations.
Wavelength Measurements in Electromagnetic Spectrum
- Various waves such as X-rays, UV, long radio waves, and microwaves are matched with their frequency ranges for better understanding.
