Frequency is the number of peaks (cycles) that pass by a fixed point
in 1 s. Thus, has units of cycles/s. 1 cycle/s = 1 s-1 = 1 Hz (Hertz)
Light has short wavelengths. So is usually expressed in nm
or Å (angstrom)
1 nm = 10-9 m
1 Å = 10-10 m
Calculation of Frequency from Wavelength
Problem: The wavelength of an x-ray is 1.00 x10 -9 m or 1 nm, what is
the frequency of this x-ray? Electromagnetic radiation of very
long wavelength is used to contact submerged nuclear submarines.
What is the frequency of this type of radiation that has a wavelength of
7.65 x 104 m.
Solution:
3.00 x 10 8 m/s
b) frequency = = 3.92 x 103 Hz
7.65 x 104 m
The Particle Nature of Light
• When an object is provided with energy it can emit
electromagnetic radiation or it glows.
Fig. 7.7
The Photoelectric Effect - I
• Below the threshold energy,
nothing occurs.
• Above the threshold, the kinetic
energy of the ejected electrons
is proportional to the frequency
of the light.
• Also, when above the threshold,
as intensity of the light increases,
so does the number of ejected
electrons.
• All metals experience this effect, but
each has a unique threshold frequency.

Energy Levels of the H Atom
•When an atom absorbs a photon the electron moves from a lower
n level to a higher n level (change in E is positive)
•When an atom emits a photon the electron moves from a higher
n level to a lower n level (change in E is negative)
•Though the change in energy with respect to the atom may be negative
(emission) or positive (absorption) the energy of the photon absorbed
or emitted is always positive. Therefore, to determine the E of the
photon absorbed or emitted one can either take the absolute value
of the change in energy from the preceding equation or arrange the
equation where E is always positive as shown below:

Quantum Numbers
• As the atom absorbs energy, it goes to an excited energy state.
• The wave motion of the electrons of an excited atom is
described by a wave function called an “atomic orbital”.
• An atomic orbital is described by three quantum numbers:
n 1 2 3 4
(shells)
l 0 0 1 0 1 2 0 1 2 3
(subshells)
ml 0 0 -1 0 +1 0 -1 0 +1 0 -1 0 +1
-2 -1 0 +1 +2 -2 -1 0 +1 +2
-3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3
Solution:
For n = 4, l can be 0, 1, 2, or 3
l = 0(s), ml = 0
l = 1(p), ml = -1, 0, +1
l = 2(d), ml = -2, -1, 0, +1, +2
l = 3(f), ml = -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3
There are 16 ml values, so there are 16 orbitals for n=4!
as a check, the total number of orbitals for a given value of n is n2,
so for n = 4 there are 42 or 16 orbitals!
Energy Sub-level Review
Sublevels are given letter designation
l = 0 is the s sublevel
l = 1 is the p sublevel
l = 2 is the d sublevel
l = 3 is the f sublevel
Remember:
An atomic orbital is specified by the n, l and ml quantum numbers.
For example:
an orbital with n =3 and l = 0 has the sublevel designation: 3s
an orbital with n =3 and l = 1 has the sublevel designation: 3p
an orbital with n =3 and l = 2 has the sublevel designation: 3d
Determining sublevel designation,ml
values and total number of orbitals
Problem: For each of the following, give a) the sublevel
designation, b) the allowed ml values, and c) the number
of orbitals.
a. n = 4, l = 2.
The sublevel designation is : 4d

Writing Electron Configurations

• To write an electron configuration for an element in the
ground state electrons are sequentially added to orbitals
of increasing energy. Proper representation is diagrammed

n represents the principal energy level, l is the sublevel
(s,p,d, or f) and e is the number of electrons in that sublevel

Increasing size
Ranking Elements by Size
Problem: Rank the following elements in each group according to
decreasing size ( largest first!):
a) Na, K, Rb b) Sr, In, Rb c) Cl, Ar, K d) Sr, Ca, Rb
Solution:
a) Rb > K > Na These elements are all alkali metals and the
elements increase in size as you go down the group.
b) Rb > Sr > In These elements are in Period 5 and the size
decreases as you go across the period.
c) K > Cl > Ar These elements border a noble gas, and it is the
smallest diameter.
d) Rb > Sr > Ca These elements are near each other, Sr is beneath
Ca therefore it is larger and Rb is next to Sr and
larger.
Defined as the amount of energy required to remove an
electron from an atom in the gas phase.
Problem: Using the Periodic table only, rank the following elements in
each of the following sets in order of increasing IE!
a) Ar, Ne, Rn b) At, Bi, Po c) Be, Na, Mg d) Cl, K, Ar
Solution:
a) Rn, Ar,Ne These elements are all noble gases and their IE
decreases as you go down the group.
b) Bi, Po, At These elements are all Period 6 elements and the IE
increases from the left to the right.
c) Na, Mg, Be These elements are close to each other, Be & Mg
are in the same group, Be is higher than Mg & Na
is next to Mg & lower in IE.
d) K, Cl, Ar These elements bracket the noble gas Ar, and Cl
would be lower than Ar and K would be lower yet!
The amount of energy associated with the gain of an
electron by an atom in the gas phase.
