A photon is a quantum of light energy true of false?
True, a photon is a quantum of energy, E=hf.
If the wavelength is long do the quanta have high or low energy?
The electromagnetic energy per quantum is proportional to frequency, and therefore inversely proportionalto wavelength. So quanta with longer wavelengths have lower energy.
What does the term quantum of energy mean?
Specific quantity of energy
When an electron moves up to a higher orbit a quantum of light energy is absorbed This quantum of light energy is also known as a?
Photon
Is a quantum is a small energy unit?
No. A quantum is a small and indivisible unit of SOMETHING, which might be energy, charge, spin, or several other things.
What is law of quantum energy and quantum mass?
In the universe energy, matter and go as per quantum. Energy is released in quantum of photon. Electron has a quantum mass. Proton has quantum mass. Both has a quantum charge. Neutron has a quantum mass. Speed of light is a quantum. Big bang is a quantum event essentially occurring at particular mass. It takes a quantum energy for shifting of electrons from one shell to other. In photo-luminescence light energy is released in quantum.
In computational quantum mechanics one of the primary goals is to calculate the ground state energy of many-body systems. Why not calculate the systems energy at 273K or 100K?
The actual goal of this particular facet of quantum mechanics is to calculate all of allowable energy states, not just the ground state. The ground state is significant though since it's the energy that the system is always trying to get to.
How are radio waves and light waves similar?
Except for their wavelength (frequency) and energy per quantum, they're identical.
A photon is a quantum of light energy true of false?
True, a photon is a quantum of energy, E=hf.
What is the valence energy level of an atom and how many electrons can it hold?
The maximum number of electrons in an energy level (and I assume you mean energy shell- with a principal quantum number) is 2n2 where n is the princiapl quantum number This gives the numebr per level of 2, 8, 18, 32, 50
If the wavelength is long do the quanta have high or low energy?
The electromagnetic energy per quantum is proportional to frequency, and therefore inversely proportionalto wavelength. So quanta with longer wavelengths have lower energy.
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is an?
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is called a quantum.
What are packet of light energy?
Quantum
The number of sublevels in an energy level is equal to the square of the principal quantum number of that energy level?
The quantum number for that energy level.
What does the term quantum of energy mean?
Specific quantity of energy
What is the term used to label the energy level of electron?
Principal quantum numbers (n).
When an electron moves up to a higher orbit a quantum of light energy is absorbed This quantum of light energy is also known as a?
Photon
