Clicker #1How many of the following statements are true?

I. All atoms of the same element are identical.II. Negatively charged particles are embedded in a positively charged cloud throughout the atom.III. As verified by Rutherford, only positively

charged particles called protons are found inside the nucleus.IV. J.J. Thomson provided the first experimental support for the atom.

A) 0 B) 1 C) 2 D) 3 E) 4

White Light Why is white light white?

Energy: Related to the wavelength of light

(also relates to the colors of light) Travels through space

(Electromagnetic Radiation- contains visible light)

Clicker #2Why does the pickle (the system) give off light? Choose the best answer.

A) If you run electricity through anything, it will give off light.B) When protons are in an excited state due to

electricity, they glow.C) The pickle contains sodium. The electricity is

causing the neutrons inside sodium to move across between the two forks and thus make it glow.D) Energy was put into the pickle (by electricity) so it’s returning back to a lower energy state by releasing light.

What puts atoms in an excited state? Applied Energy!

Electrons MOVE AROUND

Electrons Like to be near nucleus Need energy forces to keep them away Energy released when electrons fall back toward nucleus

ENERGY is NOT a continuous spectrum

ENERGY is DISCRETE spectrum

Good at explaining energy levels Electrons go from one energy level to

another Electrons can ONLY exist at certain

energy levels Works well mathematically for

Hydrogen, but not for other elements

Clicker #3When an electron is excited in an atom or ion

A) the electron moves further from the nucleus.B) only specific quantities of energy are released in order for the electron to return to its ground state.C) white light is never observed when the electron returns to its ground state.D) the electron is only excited to certain energy levels.E) All of the above statements are true when an

electron is excited.
