Quantum Physics
where the light hits the electron
And things get very weird.
Plank’s Constant
In his studies of black-body radiation, Maxwell
Planck discovered that electromagnetic energy is
emitted or absorbed in discrete quantities.
Planck’s
Equation:
E = hf
(h = 6.626 x 10-34 J s)
Apparently, light consists of
tiny bundles of energy called
photons, each having a welldefined quantum of energy.
Photon
E = hf
Energy in Electron-volts
Photon energies are so small that the energy is
better expressed in terms of the electron-volt.
One electron-volt (eV) is the energy of an
electron when accelerated through a potential
difference of one volt.
1 eV = 1.60 x 10-19 J
1 keV = 1.6 x 10-16 J
1 MeV = 1.6 x 10-13 J
Example 1: What is the energy of a photon
of yellow-green light (l = 555 nm)?

E = 3.58 x 10-19 J

Or
E = 2.24 eV
Since 1 eV = 1.60 x 10-19 J
Useful Energy Conversion
Since light is often described by its wavelength in
nanometers (nm) and its energy E is given in eV, a
conversion formula is useful. (1 nm = 1 x 10-9 m)

If l is in nm, the energy in eV is found from:

When light shines on
the cathode C of a
photocell, electrons are
ejected from A and
attracted by the positive
potential due to battery.
There is a certain threshold energy, called the
work function W, that must be overcome
before any electrons can be emitted.

The conservation of energy demands that the
energy of the incoming light hc/l be equal to the
work function W of the surface plus the kinetic
energy ½mv2 of the emitted electrons.
Example 2: The threshold wavelength of
light for a given surface is 600 nm. What is
the kinetic energy of emitted electrons if
light of wavelength 450 nm shines on the
metal?

Stopping Potential
A potentiometer is used
to vary to the voltage V
between the electrodes.
The stopping potential
is that voltage Vo that
just stops the emission
of electrons, and thus
equals their original K.E.

Slope of a Straight Line (Review)
The general equation for
a straight line is:

The x-intercept xo occurs
when line crosses x axis
or when y = 0.

its wavelength can be found from momentum.

Finding Momentum from K.E.
In working with particles of momentum p = mv,
it is often necessary to find the momentum from
the given kinetic energy K. Recall the formulas:
K = ½mv2 ;
Multiply first
Equation by m:
p = mv
mK = ½m2v2 = ½p2
Momentum from K:
p  2mK

The Bohr Atom
Atomic spectra indicate that atoms emit or
absorb energy in discrete amounts. In 1913,
Neils Bohr explained that classical theory did not
apply to the Rutherford atom.
An electron can only
have certain orbits and
the atom must have
definite energy levels
which are analogous to
standing waves.

Bohr’s Atom and Radiation
Emission
Absorption
When an electron drops
to a lower level, radiation
is emitted; when radiation
is absorbed, the electron
moves to a higher level.
Energy: hf = Ef - Ei
By combining the idea of energy levels with
classical theory, Bohr was able to predict the
radius of the hydrogen atom.

Modern Theory of the Atom
The model of an electron as a point particle moving
in a circular orbit has undergone significant change.
• The quantum model now presents the
location of an electron as a probability
distribution - a cloud around the nucleus.
• Additional quantum numbers have been
added to describe such things as shape,
orientation, and magnetic spin.
• Pauli’s exclusion principle showed that no
two electrons in an atom can exist in the
exact same state.
