Unit 5 electrons vocab #1
Across
- 2. the number of wave cycles or crests that pass through a stationary point in one second
- 3. an integer that specifies the energy of an orbital
- 5. the longest wavelength and least energetic form of electromagnetic radiation
- 10. the shortest-wavelength, most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation
- 11. a type of energy that travels through space at a constant speed
- 13. a model for the atom in which electrons travel around the nucleus in circular orbits at specific, fixed distances from the nucleus
- 14. the region around the nucleus of an atom where an electron is most likely to be found
- 15. a spectrum associated with the emission of electromagnetic radiation by elements or compounds
- 16. the fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye
- 17. the part of the electromagnetic spectrum between the infrared region and the radio wave region
- 18. the precise amount of energy possessed by a photon
Down
- 1. the distance between adjacent wave crests in a wave
- 3. the foundation of modern chemistry; explains how electrons exist in atoms and how they affect the chemical and physical properties of elements
- 4. the fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum between visible light and microwaves
- 6. next to the gamma rays on the electromagnetic spectrum. Longer in wavelength and lower in energy than gamma rays. Most commonly known for their medical use.
- 7. the fixed amount of energy for each orbit in the Bohr model
- 8. a particle of light of a packet of light energy
- 9. the fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum between the visible region and the X-ray region
- 12. a spectrum that includes all wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation
