I would comment on the photoelectric efe...Good job!<br />I would comment on the photoelectric efect as already advised and discuss how photons interact with electrons in orbitals aroound an atom through the wave particle dualityEric Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135076088343477676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997398157752414242.post-48937191174956217832010-11-14T08:50:52.773-08:002010-11-14T08:50:52.773-08:00great job, nick, next time maybe mention the photo...great job, nick, next time maybe mention the photoelectric effectAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997398157752414242.post-21292345687677843032010-11-13T07:27:45.478-08:002010-11-13T07:27:45.478-08:00When light passes through a prism, the frequencies...When light passes through a prism, the frequencies of light emitted by an element separate into discrete lines. When atoms absorb energy, electrons movie to higher energy levels. These electrons later lose energy by emitting light when they return to lower energy levels. Ordinary light is made up of a mixture of all the wavelengths of light. However, each specific frequency of visible light emitted corresponds to a particular color. Each element has a different atomic emission spectrum. Similarly to the idea that no two humans have the same fingerprints, no two elements have the same light emission spectrum. Just like fingerprints can be used to identify humans, atomic emission spectrums can be used to identify elements. Each discrete line corresponds to one exact frequency of light emitted by the atom.morganB6https://www.blogger.com/profile/05334929491802450382noreply@blogger.com
