2 Wave: a vibrating disturbance by which energy is transmitted. Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms From Classical Physics to Quantum Theory We have to understand something about the nature of wave before talking about Quantum theory. Wave: a vibrating disturbance by which energy is transmitted. Wavelength (λ) lambda: is the distance between identical points on successive waves. Frequency (ν) nu: is the number of waves that pass through a particular point in 1 second. Amplitude : is the vertical distance from the midline of a wave to the peak.
3 Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) 1 Hz = 1 cycle/s Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms From Classical Physics to Quantum Theory Wave speed (u): depend on type of wave and the nature of the medium through which the wave is traveling. Wavelength usually expressed in units of meter, centimeter, or nanometer. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) 1 Hz = 1 cycle/s Normally the word cycle is left out and we say and we expressed frequency as for example 25/s u= λν
4 The speed of light is known as 3 x 108 m/s Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms From Classical Physics to Quantum Theory Example: The wavelength of the green light from a traffic signal is centered at 522 nm. What is the frequency of this radiation? u =λν ν=u/λ The speed of light is known as 3 x 108 m/s Because the speed of light is in m we have to change the wavelength to m λ = 522 x 10-9 m ν = 3 x 108 / 522 x 10-9 = 5.75 x 1014 Hz.
5 for all electromagnetic radiation c = λν Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms From Classical Physics to Quantum Theory There are many type of waves, such as water waves, sound waves and light waves. Clerk Maxwell proposed in 1973 that visible light consists of electromagnetic wave has an electric field component and a magnetic filed component. The two components have the same wavelength and frequency, and hence the speed. Electromagnetic radiation is the emission and transmission of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves. for all electromagnetic radiation c = λν Where c is the speed of light = 3 x 108 m/s

8 The energy of a signal quantum (E):Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms Planck’s Quantum Theory When solid are heated they emit electromagnetic radiation over a wide range of wavelength. Example is the dull red glow of an electric heater and the bright white light of tungsten light bulb. the amount of radiant energy emitted by an object at a certain temperature depends on the wavelength according to Plank the atoms and molecules could emit (or adsorb) energy only in discrete quantities (quantum). Quantum is the smallest quantity of energy that can be emitted (or absorbed) in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The energy of a signal quantum (E): Where h is planck’s constant
9 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsPlanck’s Quantum Theory According to the quantum theory energy is always emitted in integral multiples of hν, for example hν, 2hν, 3hν, …… but never for exmaple 1.67hν. Example: Calculate the energy (in J) of: (a) a photon with a wavelength of 5.00 x 104 nm (IR region) (b) a photon with a wavelength of 5.00 x 10-2 nm (X-ray region) a- λ= 5 x 104nm = 5 x 104 x 10-9 = 5 x 10-5m b- λ= 5 x 10-2 nm = 5 x 10-2 x 10-9 = 5 x 10-11m
10 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsBohr’s Theory of the Hydrogen Atom Bohr’s greatest contribution to science was in building a simple model of the atom. It was based on understanding the SHARP LINE SPECTRA of excited atoms. Niels Bohr ( ) (Nobel Prize, 1922)
11 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsBohr’s Theory of the Hydrogen Atom Emission spectra is either continuous or line spectra of radiation emitted by substances. Continuous is a common feature to the emission spectra of the sun and of a heated solid; that is, all wavelengths of visible light are represented in the spectra.

13 Line spectra is the light emission only at specific wavelengths. Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms Bohr’s Theory of the Hydrogen Atom Emission spectra is either continuous or line spectra of radiation emitted by substances. Continuous is a common feature to the emission spectra of the sun and of a heated solid; that is, all wavelengths of visible light are represented in the spectra. The emission spectra of atoms in the gas phase do not show a continuous spread of wavelengths from red to violet; rather, the atoms produce bright lines in different parts of the visible spectrum. Line spectra is the light emission only at specific wavelengths. Excited atoms emit light of only certain wavelengths The wavelengths of emitted light depend on the element.

15 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsBohr’s Theory of the Hydrogen Atom Bohr postulated that the electron is allowed to occupy only certain orbits of specific energies and the energies of the electron are quantized. According to Bohr the emission spectrum of the H atom results from the following: the hydrogen atom is energised then electron excited to higher energy orbit and then drop to a lower-energy orbit and emitting a quantum of energy ( a photon) in the form of light.
16 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsBohr’s Theory of the Hydrogen Atom The equation that represent the energies that an electron in hydrogen atom can occupy are given by: RH is the Rodberg constant (2.18 x J), n is an integer called the principle quantum number (n= 1,2,3,…..). when n =1 this is refer to as ground state or the ground level. Which refer to the lowest energy state of a system. n=2,3,4…. Is called an excited state or excited level, which is higher in energy than the ground state.
17 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsBohr’s Theory of the Hydrogen Atom The journey from a lower step to a higher step is an energy-requiring process. Whereas movement from a higher step to a lower step is an energy releasing process.

According to de Borglie, an electron bond to nucleus behave like a standing wave. De Broglie deduced that the particle and wave prosperities are related by the expression Where λ wavelenght of moving particle, m mass (kg), u velocity of moving particle.

23 Chapter Seven / Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of AtomsQuantum numbers Bohr theory did not provide a complete description of electronic behaviour in atoms and it location around the nucleus. In 1926 Erwin Schrödinger wrote an equation that specifies the energy states of the electron in a hydrogen atom and identifies the corresponding wave functions Ψ. These energy states and wave functions are characterized by a set of Quantum Numbers . Quantum numbers may be viewed as an electrons address. Schrödinger’s equation can only be solved exactly for the hydrogen atom. Must approximate its solution for multi-electron systems. Quantum number are a set of four values that define the energy state of an electron in an atom.
