What was predicted to happen to hydrogen when it was heated up

It should have emitted white light bc electrons can absorb all wavelenths of energy so they should’ve radiated off all as well.

New cards
10

what was observed when the hydrogen was heated

In the end the hydrogen emitted a pink light. When the light was shown through a prism instead of there being all the colours, there were only a specific colours of red, green, blue and violet. This demonstrated that only specific wavelengths could be absorbed by the Hydrogen atom. (staircase model)

What is the emission spectrum

The specific wavelengths that are produced when an electron falls from one ring to another. It has black spaces and coloured lines.

New cards
13

What is the absorption spectrum

The colours absorbed by the element. This is seen as the opposite of the emission spectrum as the specific quantities that release a specific light can’t be on the absorbtion spectrum as it would move the elctron onto the next ring. The absorbtion spectrum has black lines and coloured spaces.

Where should we look for exceptions in the ionization energies

B, Al, O, S

New cards
63

Why does the ionization energy decrease from Be to B and Mg to Al?

The ionization energy decreases from Be to B and Mg to Al due to the shielding effect. The shielding effect occurs when inner electrons (1s, 2s namely) shield the outermost electron from the full positive charge of the nucleus, reducing the ionization energy. Therefore, the ionization energy decreases.

New cards
64

Why is there a drop in ionization energy between N and O and P and S?

The ionization energy is reduced due to the repulsion between the paired electrons in the 2p/3p, making the electron easier to remove.

96

what is hydrogen bonding

Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force that occurs when a hydrogen atom, covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine, is attracted to another electronegative atom in a different molecule. This attraction results in a relatively strong bond between the molecules.

Dipole-dipole bonding is a type of intermolecular force that occurs between polar molecules.

Ion-dipole bonding is a type of chemical interaction between an ion (charged particle) and a polar molecule. It occurs when the positive or negative charge of the ion attracts the partial charges of the polar molecule.

Ion-induced dipole bonding is a type of intermolecular interaction that occurs when a charged ion induces a temporary dipole moment in a nearby neutral molecule or atom.

what is dipole-induced dipole bonding

Dipole-induced dipole bonding occurs when a polar molecule induces a temporary charge on another molecule. For example, the negative side of an HCl molecule will repel the negative electrons of O2 creating temporary positive and negative sides.
