CHEMISTRY: Waves and Particles Worksheet

Name_______________ Period_______ Date_______

Waves & Particles – Ch. 4
(p. 97 - 101)

1. In the diagrams below, which wave has the higher frequency? Explain.


2. Briefly describe what Planck and Einstein contributed to the concept of Quantum Theory.




3. One of the lines in the emission spectrum of sodium has a wavelength of 590 nm. What is the frequency of this line?



4. A radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 91.3 MHz (9.13 ´ 107 Hz). What is the wavelength of this EM wave?



5. Calculate the energy of a gamma ray photon with a frequency of 6.0 ´ 1022 Hz.



6. When an electron in a hydrogen atom drops from the fifth to the second energy level, 4.58 ´ 10-19 J of energy is released. Find the frequency of the photon that is produced.



7. Order the following regions of the EM spectrum from lowest to highest energy: infrared, microwaves, ultraviolet, visible red, visible green, X-rays.

You actually make it seem so easy together with your presentation however I to find
this topic to be really something which I feel I might never understand.
It kind of feels too complex and very huge for me. I am taking a look ahead on your subsequent put up, I'll try to get the hang of it!
