Electromagnetic waveA wave of energy having a frequency

within the electromagnetic spectrum and propagated as a periodic disturbance of the electromagnetic field when an electric charge oscillates or accelerates.

Line SpectrumLine Spectrum

A spectrum produced by a luminous gas or vapor and appearing as distinct lines characteristic of the various elements constituting the gas.

HSTMr.Watson

Emission SpectrumEmission Spectrum

The spectrum of bright lines, bands, or continuous radiation characteristic of and determined by a specific emitting substance subjected to a specific kind of excitation.

Ground StateGround State

The state of least possible energy in a physical system, as of elementary particles. Also called ground level.

HSTMr.Watson

Excited StateExcited State

Being at an energy level higher than the ground state.

Electron Transition in a Hydrogen Electron Transition in a Hydrogen AtomAtom

Lyman series => ultraviolet

n > 1 ==> n = 1

Balmer series => visible light

n > 2 ==> n = 2

Paschen series => infrared

n > 3 ==> n = 3

Absorption SpectrumAbsorption Spectrum

Light shinning on a sample causes electrons to be excited from the ground state to an excited state

wavelengths of that energy are removed from transmitted spectra

Knowing diamond is transparent, which curve best represents the absorption spectrum of diamond (see below)?

A, B, C

Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg, Werner1901–76, German physicist1901–76, German physicist

1932 Nobel Prize in physics1932 Nobel Prize in physics

A founder of QUANTUM MECHANICS, he is famous for his uncertainty principle, which states that it is impossible to determine both the position and momentum of a subatomic particle (such as the electron) with arbitrarily high accuracy.

HSTMr.Watson

Heissenberg Uncertainty Heissenberg Uncertainty PrinciplePrinciple

“it is impossible to determine both the position and momentum of a subatomic particle (such as the electron) with arbitrarily high accuracy”

The effect of this principle is to convert the laws of physics into statements about relative, instead of absolute, certainties.
