Electromagnetic Radiation • Electromagnetic radiation carries E thru space by means of a wave. • Properties of a wave: (Refer to lec. Notes) • Wavelength (, pronounced lambda) • Frequency (, pronounced nu) • Amplitude (A) • Energy of the photon (uniform packets of E, proportional to frequency)
Units of Measurement Wavelength: m, cm, m, nm, angstrom = Å 1 nm = 10 Å 1 m = 1010 Å Frequency: cycles per second = 1/sec = sec-1 1 Hertz = = 1 Hz =1 sec-1 Energy: J, kJ, ergs
How are they related? x = c = 2.998x108 m s-1 (speed of light) is inversely proportional to Example 8.1 p. 253 Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the organism that causes tuberculosis, can be completely destroyed by irradiation with UV light with a wavelength of 254 nm. What is the frequency of this radiation?
Example 8.2 p. 308 Radio station WKXR is an AM radio station broadcasting from Asheboro, N Carolina, at a frequency of 1260 kHz. What is the wavelength of these radio waves expressed in meters? Do Pract Exer 1, 2, 3 p.308
Energy of a Light Wave The energy carried by a light wave is said to be in “discrete” packets called "photons." Size of energy of the photons is proportional to the frequency of the wave. E = h where h = Planck's constant = 6.626x10-34 J s You don’t need to memorize constants.
Relationship between wavelength, frequency & energy of the photon
The “Rainbow” • The rainbow is a small region of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum, the “visible” region of the spectrum. • You should know the names of the rest of the regions of the spectrum, and in order of energy, frequency and wavelength. (See lecture notes.)

What is the energy of a photon of the red light at 700. nm? • What do we know about energy and the wave? • How is wavelength related to frequency? • How is energy related to wavelength?
Continuous vs. Line Spectrum What do we see if ordinary white light is passed through a prism? If we pass a current through a partially evacuated tube of a gas, a light is emitted. If this emitted light is passed through a prism, we do not see a continuous rainbow, instead we see...
Figure 8.7 p. 314 Emission Line Spectrum We see discrete colored lines on a black background
Line Spectrum of H2 A mathematician came up with an equation that describes the pattern of lines observed for hydrogen (the Rydberg Eqn). The equation does not EXPLAIN why there is such a pattern. Bohr came up with his Planetary Model of the Atom that EXPLAINS why hydrogen would produce such a pattern of lines. (See lecture notes.)
Bohr's Calculations Each emission line of hydrogen is due to the energy released in the transition of an electron from a higher E level to a lower one. Bohr's equation En = B/n2 Bohr's constant, B = 2.180x10-18 J This allows us to calculate the E of each level. The amount of E released is equal to ΔE. ΔE = Ehi – Elo Once we have calculated ΔE, we can determine the corresponding and . (See lecture notes.)
Why Schroedinger has to come up with a different model: Bohr’s theory could predict emission lines for one electron system ONLY. What are one-electron systems? How is Schroedinger’s model different from Bohr’s? See next PowerPoint.
