Ultraviolet (UV) light has a shorter wavelength than visible light but longer than X-rays.
X-ray has a very short wavelength compared to UV light.
Energy Emitted: The energy absorbed in the same
Infrared radiation has lower frequencies and less energy than visible light.
Chromium electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹3d⁵
Limit of convergence corresponds to the ionization energy: The minimum amount of energy required to remove 1 mole of electrons from the ground state of 1 mole of gaseous atoms.
Copper Electron configuration: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d10
The first ionisation energy of an element is always greater than its second ionisation energy because it requires more energy to remove another electron from a positively charged atom.
Left to right on the perodic table: Increase number of protons
Increase nuclear pull
INcrease energy required to remove 1st electron
Steps to find wavelength: Converting first ionization energy from kilojoules to joules
divide by avogadro's number = variable 1
variable 1/planks constant = variable 2
speed of light/ variable 2
First Ionization energy formula: x (g) —> x+ (g) + e-
High first ionization: harder to remove the electron
Absorption line spectrum: occurs when the light is absorbed by the atoms in the gas.
relative percentage abundance formula: isotope 1(x) + isotope 2(100-x) = isotope 1 relative mass x 100
solve for x = isotope 1 percentage
isotope 1 percentage - 100 = isotope 2 percentage
Emission light: Occurs when an electron is emitted from an atom or ion.
