On some occasions, the selected molecule moved in and out until a photon of light was emitted. This observation is very similar to what Niels Bohr observed. Research Niels Bohr and his atomic emission spectrum. Use your research, along with the data from this experiment, to explain the effects that different frequencies of electromagnetic radiation have when absorbed by matter.

Section 11.6 uses a "firefly" analogy to illustrate how the wave mechanical modal for the atom differs from Bohr’s. model. Explain this analogy.
What does wave-particle duality mean? What are its implications in our modem view of atomic structure?
When a tube containing hydrogen atoms is energized by passing several thousand volts of electricity into the tube, the hydrogen emits light than when passed through a prism, resolves into the "bright line" spectrum shown in Fig. 11.10. Why do hydrogen atoms emit bright lines of specific wavelengths rather than a continuous spectrum?
The light produced by a red neon sign is due to the emission of light by excited neon atoms. Qualitatively describe the spectrum produced by passing light from a neon lamp through a prism.
Schrodinger and de Broglie suggested a ‘Wave—particle duality" for small particles—that is, if electromagnetic radiation showed some particle-like properties, then perhaps small punicles might exhibit same wave-like properties. Explain. How does the wave mechanical picture of the atom fundamentally differ from the Bohr model? How do wave mechanical arbitals differ from Bohr’s orbits? What does it mean to say that an orbital represents a probability map for an electron?
Sketch the major features (number of peaks and relative intensities for the peaks) of the expected photoelectron spectrum for atoms of nitrogen.
Chapter 3 introduced the concept of a double bond between carbon atoms, represented by C=C , with a length near 1.34 Å. The motion of an electron in such a bond can be treated crudely as motion in a one-dimensional box. Calculate the energy of an electron in each of its three lowest allowed states if it is confined to move in a one-dimensional box of length 1.34 Å. Calculate the wavelength of light necessary to excite the electron from its ground state to the first excited state.
Explain the hydrogen emission spectrum. Why is it significant that the calm emitted is not while? How does the emission spectrum support the idea of quantized energy levels?
6.103 Atomic absorption spectroscopy is based on the atomic spectra of the elements being studied. It can be used to determine the impurities in a metal sample. If an element is present, light at the appropriate wavelength is absorbed. You are working with a metal stamping company and the rolled steel you use to form panels for automobile doors is failing at an alarming rate. There is some chance that the problem is unacceptably high levels of manganese in the steel. Given that the atomic spectrum of manganese has three lines near 403 nm, how could you use a spectrometer to determine the amount of manganese in the steel?
What is the difference between an atom’s ground state and an excited state?
Photoelectron spectroscopy studies of silicon atoms excited by X-rays with wavelength 9.8901010m show four peaks in which the electrons have speeds 2.097107ms1,2.093107ms1,2.014107ms1, and 1.971107ms1 . (Recall that 1J=1kgm2s2 .) (a) Calculate the ionization energy of the electrons in each peak. (b) Assign each peak to an orbital of the silicon atom.
