Does transferring an electron change the identity of the elements involved?
No but it changes the polarity (positive/negative).
Electron X can change to a higher energy level or a lower energy level Which statement is true of electron X?
Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level. Electron X absorbs energy when it changes to a higher energy level. It takes energy to do that.
What is the difference between AAS and Flame photometer?
flame photometry is a type of atomic EMISSION spectroscopy. The sample is excited (raised to a high temperature), causing the emission of light. the wavelength of the emitted light is a function of the energy of the excited electrons, so each element has a characteristic set of wavelengths. usually a single wavelength is detected and the intensity of the emission is used to calculate concentration. Atomic adsorption works in the reverse way. A light of a standard wavelength (a wavelength characteristic of the target element) is passed through a flame containing the unknown substance, and the concentration of the target element is determined by the reduction in the energy of this light as it passes through the flame. the light is adsorbed by the electrons in the target element, kicking them into a higher orbit or completely out of the atom, depending on the energy involved. basically, one method involves the emission of the energy as an excited electron kicks back down to a lower state, and the other involves the adsorption of energy as an electron is kicked up an energy state. Same basic principle-change in electron energy relates to light of a specified wavelength and the change in the amount of that light can be measured and converted to a concentration.
How could a fluorine atom change into a fluorine ion?
A fluorine atom changes into a fluoride ion by gaining one electron and developing a 1- charge.
Can you list three kinds of changes that indicate a chemical reaction has taken place?
Some signs that a chemical change has taken place is that a gas can be produced, the temperature can change, and a substance disappears. Other signs are that a solid is formed, the color changes, and a new odor is produced.
What is blueshift?
A blueshift is a change in the wavelength of light, in which the wavelength is shorter than it was when it was emitted at the source.
Why frequency of light never change when light changes medium?
When light enters another medium it changes speed, but thewavelength changes correspondingly so that the frequency does not change. For example, if light enters a medium where its speed is cut in half, then the wavelength will also be reduced by half.
What does the electron produce when they change energy levels?
a photon is emitted or absorbed
Does the intensity of infrared waves emitted by the Sun change as the wavelength of the ultraviolet waves increases?
yes
How is the change in electron energy related to the frequency of light emitted in electron transitions?
Its right in the book (in bold) and has a key next to it.
What is a property of sound that changes with frequency?
If you change sound's frequency and hold the velocity constant, the sound's wavelength also changes. If you change sound's frequency and keep the wavelength constant, then velocity also changes.
How is visible light made?
Light is emitted when an electron drops from the orbit of an excited state, into its natural state. The quantum of light emitted is characteristic of the change in energy of the two electron states, and also of the actual element involved.
What happen to the speed when frequency and wavelength change?
It would change, depending on how much the frequency and the wavelength changes. It varies based on v = fλ.
How does the energy associated with waves change wavelength changes?
a shorter wavelength means lower energy. A shorter wavelength means high energy
What type of nuclear decay results in the atomic number increasing by one with no change in mass?
Beta- decay result in an increase of atomic number by one, with no resulting change in the atomic mass number.There is a change in mass, since an electron and an electron anti-neutrino is emitted, and also because the neutron changes into a proton, but the atomic mass number, per se, does not change.
How does wavelength change when frequency is constant?
the wavelength changes when the frequency changes if the wavelengths are smaller and thinner then the frequency is high, when the frequency is slow then the wavelengths is larger and wider. if the frequency is constant then the wavelength is a normal size
Is charge of a baryon conserved when it undergoes beta decay?
Total charge is always conserved. If an electron is emitted, the remaining particle's charge will change by +1. If a positron is emitted, the remaining particle's charge will change by -1.
