1. Having learned about electromagnetic radiation in this lesson, which of these statements<br />

about it is true?<br />

2. In terms of wavelength, which of these is the longest?<br />

3. Which of the following statements is true about atomic size?<br />

4. Write out the electron configurations of the ions below and determine which one is listed with<br />

an incorrect charge. (the numbers and charges written after the elemental symbol should be<br />

understood as superscripts)<br />

5. If I time the movement of waves for 1 second, and calculate that 100 waves passed through in<br />

that 1 second, what have I calculated?<br />

6. Geometrically linear means that the electron groups have what angle?<br />

7. Geometrically trigonal planar means that the electron groups have what angle?<br />

8. Some atoms are better at attracting electrons compared to others. Which term below best<br />

describes that?<br />

9. According to the electronegativity table, the value for barium and sulfur is 0.9 and 3.5,<br />

respectively. What type of bond would you expect to form between these two elements?<br />

10. Regarding boron trifluoride, which of these is TRUE?<br />

11. On December 5, 1971, at the mere age of 35, the great composer Wolfgang Amadeus<br />

Mozart died after a three month long battle with illness. Rumor was that a rival musician had<br />

poisoned him, but it turned out that common consensus was that the antimony prescription that<br />

doctors had prescribed him was actually poisoning him.


(a) What is the full ​and abbreviated electron configuration for this element? Explain how you<br />

arrived at this configuration. In other words, don't just give me the configuration, but walk me<br />

through and explain to me how exactly you arrived at your answer.<br />

(b) In this <strong>Lesson</strong> we talked about the relationship between frequency and wavelength. The<br />

relationship can actually be expressed as<br />

where ​f is ​ the frequency, ​c is the speed of light (see below), and ​lambda (the symbol on the left<br />

of the equals sign that looks like an upside down y) is wavelength. The particle nature of light<br />

was first proposed by Einstein, who suggested that light could be described as a stream of<br />

particles ​ called photons. ​ A photon of a certain wavelength (​lambda) has an energy (​E) given by<br />

the equation:<br />

where ​E is the energy ​ of the photon in J, ​h is Planck's constant (6.626 x 10​ -34​ J*s), and ​c is the<br />

​<br />

speed of light (3.00 x 10​ 8​ m/s). If we determine the wavelength (​lambda) of light emitted from a<br />

sample of antimony to be 206.8 nm, what is the energy (E) and frequency (f) that corresponds to<br />

this wavelength?<br />

12. Think about it--why is the line spectrum produced by excited barium atoms more complex<br />

than the line spectrum produced by excited sodium atoms? Be sure to base your answer on what<br />

we discussed in THIS class and use the terminology from the materials in THIS course. Your<br />

answer must be sufficiently detailed to receive credit
