Answer:

This primarily has to do with the balance of energy between the orbitals. The aufbau principle states that the order of energy regarding electrons in the orbitals from lowest to highest is so the electron in the atom will minimalize it's energy. Periods on the periodic table are based on the energy level while the groups have the same amount of valence electrons. The outer orbitals are refered to as shells. The elements are particularly arranged depending on their atomic and molecular orbitals. Valence electrons most determine the chemical properties of an element. The atomic number is based on the number of protons.

How does an ion differ from an atom?

Alex73 [517]

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical properties of the element. Atoms are electrically neutral, with a positively charged nucleus that binds one or more electrons in motion around it. An ion-An atom or molecule that has acquired a charge by either gaining or losing electrons. An atom or molecule with missing electrons has a net positive charge and is called a cation*; one with extra electrons has a net negative charge and is called an anion*.

What is the frequency of red light with a wavelength of 645 nm?

marin [14]

Answer:

4.64E14

Explanation:

First convert 645 nm to m = 6.4500E-7m. The equation for finding v with these values is the speed of light/wavelength. so 2.998E8/6.4500E-7m.

so your v or frequency would equal 4.64E14

Fun fact you know this is visible light because the visible light range is within the E14 range.
