Presentation Transcript

  1. Ground State vs. Excited State Electrons All E-configs we’ve spoken about so far have been ground state….

  2. Ground State e- • Definition: • Most stable electron configuration • electrons occupy the lowest possible energy levels 1s22s22p3

  3. Excited State e- • Definition: e- have absorbed energy and jumped energy levels • The more energy it absorbs the higher it will jump. 1s22s22p23s1

  4. Ground State to Excited State

  5. Excited State down to Ground State

  6. Bright line emission spectra

  7. If you hold a prism to light you will see a continuous spectrum of color. ROYGBIV

  8. However, light produced by electrons produce narrowlines of color • used to identify elements in the universe • like fingerprints identify us

  9. Line Spectra examples

  10. THE END
