The Beginnings of Quantum Mechanics量子 力學的開端
• Until the beginning of the twentieth century it was believed that all physical phenomena were
deterministic.直到二十世紀開始,所有的物理現象都
具有確定性。
• Work done at that time by many famous physicists discovered that for sub-atomic particles, the present condition does not determine the future condition.
– Albert Einstein, Neils Bohr, Louis de Broglie, Max Planck, Werner Heisenberg, P. A. M. Dirac, and Erwin Schrödinger
• 當時許多著名的物理學家發現了次原子粒子,目前 的狀況無法確定未來的狀況。

The Behavior of the Very Small非常小的 行為
• Electrons are incredibly small.
電子是小得令人難以置信。
– A single speck of dust has more electrons than the number of people who have ever lived on Earth.
– 一個點塵埃的電子數比曾經生活在地球上的人的數量都還多
。
• Electron behavior determines much of the behavior of atoms. 電子行為決定大部分原子的行為。
• Directly observing electrons in the atom is
impossible; the electron is so small that observing it changes its behavior.
– Even shining a light on the electron would affect it.
直接觀察的原子中的電子是不可能的,電子是如此之小,觀察其行為改 變。
即使對電子發光光會影響它。
A Theory That Explains Electron Behavior 一個理論來解釋的電子行為
• The quantum-mechanical model explains the manner in which electrons exist and behave in atoms.
量子力學模型解釋原子中電子的存在和行為?
• It helps us understand and predict the properties of atoms that are directly related to the behavior of the electrons:它可以幫助我們了解和預測的原子的電子的行為有直接關係的屬性:
– Why some elements are metals and others are nonmetals – Why some elements gain one electron when forming an
anion, whereas others gain two
– Why some elements are very reactive, while others are practically inert
– Why in other periodic patterns we see in the properties of the elements
7.2 The Nature of Light: Its Wave Nature
• Light: a form of electromagnetic radiation
– Composed of perpendicular oscillating waves, one for the electric field and one for the
magnetic field
• An electric field is a region where an electrically charged particle experiences a force.
• A magnetic field is a region where a magnetized particle experiences a force.
• All electromagnetic waves move through space at the same, constant speed.
– 3.00 × 108 m/s = the speed of light

Speed of Energy Transmission
Wave Characteristics
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
• The amplitude is the height of the wave.
– The distance from node to crest or node to trough
– The amplitude is a measure of light intensity—the larger the amplitude, the brighter the light.
• The wavelength (l) is a measure of the distance covered by the wave.
– The distance from one crest to the next
• The distance from one trough to the next, or the distance between alternate
nodes
Characterizing Waves
• The frequency (n) is the number of waves that pass a point in a given period of time.
– The number of waves = the number of cycles.
– Units are hertz (Hz) or cycles/s = s−1 (1 Hz = 1 s−1).
• The total energy is proportional to the amplitude of the waves and the frequency.
– The larger the amplitude, the more force it has.
– The more frequently the waves strike, the more total force there is.
**Frequency, Wavelength and Speed of Electromagnetic Radiation

Color xx
• The color of light is determined by its wavelength or frequency.
• White light is a mixture of all the colors of visible light.

• When an object absorbs some of the
wavelengths of white light and reflects
others, it appears colored; t
he observed color is predominantly the colors reflected.© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Solution
You are given the frequency of the light and asked to find its wavelength. Use Equation 7.1, which relates frequency to wavelength. You can convert the wavelength from meters to nanometers by using the conversion factor between the two (1 nm = 10–9 m).
For Practice 7.1
A laser dazzles the audience in a rock concert by emitting green light with a wavelength of 515 nm. Calculate the frequency of the light.
Calculate the wavelength (in nm) of the red light emitted by a barcode scanner that has a frequency of 4.62 × 1014 s–1.
Example 7.1 Wavelength and Frequency
**Electromagnetic Spectrum
• Visible light comprises only a small fraction of all the wavelengths of light, called the electromagnetic spectrum.
• Shorter wavelength (high-frequency) light has higher energy.
– Radio wave light has the lowest energy.
– Gamma ray light has the highest energy.
• High-energy electromagnetic radiation can potentially damage biological molecules.
– Ionizing radiation
Thermal Imaging using Infrared Light (IR)
Using High-Energy Radiation to Kill Cancer Cells
During radiation therapy, a tumor is
targeted from multiple directions in order to minimize the exposure of healthy cells, while maximizing the exposure of cancerous cells.
To produce a medical X-ray, the patient is exposed to short-
wavelength electromagnetic radiation that can pass
through the skin to create an image of bones and internal organs.

Diffraction(X)
• When traveling waves encounter an obstacle or opening in a barrier that is about the same size as the wavelength, they bend around it; this is called
diffraction.– Traveling particles do not diffract.
• The diffraction of light
through two slits separated by a distance comparable to the wavelength results in an
interference pattern of thediffracted waves.
• An interference pattern is a characteristic of all light waves.

**pg.302 The Particle Nature of Light:
The Photoelectric Effect
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubkNGwu_66s
• It was observed that many metals emit electrons when a light shines on their surface.
– This is called the photoelectric effect.
• Classic wave theory attributed this effect to the light energy being transferred to the electron.
• According to this theory, if the wavelength of light is made shorter, or the light wave’s intensity made brighter, more electrons should be ejected.
– Remember that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to its amplitude and its frequency.
– This idea predicts if a dim light were used there would be a lag time before electrons were emitted.
• To give the electrons time to absorb enough energy
The Particle Nature of Light:
The Photoelectric Effect
The Photoelectric Effect: The Problem
• Experimental observations indicate the following:
– A minimum frequency was needed before electrons would be emitted regardless of the
intensity called the threshold frequency.
臨界頻率
– High-frequency light from a dim source causedelectron emission without any lag time.
**Einstein’s Explanation
• Einstein proposed that the light energy was
delivered to the atoms in packets, called quanta or photons.量子或光子。
• The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequen
cy.
– Inversely proportional to its wavelength
– The proportionality constant is called Planck’s
Constant, (h), and has the value 6.626 × 10
−34 J ∙ s.
Ejected Electrons
• One photon at the threshold frequency gives the electron just enough energy for it to
escape the atom.克服原子核對電子的吸引力
– Binding energy, f
• When irradiated with a shorter wavelength photon, the electron absorbs more energy than is necessary to escape.
• This excess energy becomes kinetic energy of the ejected electron.

Check
The units of the answer, photons, are correct. The magnitude of the answer (1015) is reasonable. Photons are small particles and any macroscopic collection should contain a large number of them.
For Practice 7.2
A 100-watt lightbulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 J/s (The watt, a unit of power, or energy over time, is defined as 1 J/s.) If all of the light emitted has a wavelength of 525 nm, how many photons are emitted per second? (Assume three significant figures in this calculation.)
For More Practice 7.2

Chemistry: A Molecular Approach, 3rd Edition
Solution
Examine Figure 7.5 and note that X-rays have the shortest wavelength, followed by visible light and then microwaves.
a. wavelength
X rays < visible < microwaves
Since frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional—the longer the wavelength the shorter the frequency—the ordering with respect to frequency is the reverse of the ordering with respect to wavelength.
b. frequency
microwaves < visible < X rays
Energy per photon decreases with increasing wavelength but increases with increasing frequency; therefore, the ordering with respect to energy per photon is the same as for frequency.
c. energy per photon
microwaves < visible < X rays
Arrange the three types of electromagnetic radiation—visible light, X-rays, and microwaves—in order of increasing a. wavelength. b. frequency. c. energy per photon.

Exciting Gas Atoms to Emit Light with Electrical Energy
When atoms or molecules absorb energy, that energy is often released as light energy,
Fireworks, neon lights, etc.
When that emitted light is passed through a prism, a pattern of particular wavelengths of light is seen that is unique to that type of atom or molecule – the pattern is called an emission

Examples of Spectra
Bohr Model of H Atoms
Rydberg’s Spectrum Analysis
Johannes Rydberg (1854–1919)
The Bohr Model of the Atom
• Bohr’s major idea was that the energy of the atom was quantized, and that the amount of energy in the atom was related to the electron’s position in the atom.
– Quantized means that the atom could only
have very specific amounts of energy.
Neils Bohr (1885–1962)
• The electrons travel in orbits that are at a fixed distance from the nucleus.
– Stationary states
– Therefore, the energy of the electron was proportional to the distance the orbit was from the nucleus.
• Electrons emit radiation when they “jump” from an orbit with higher energy down to an orbit with lower energy.
– The emitted radiation was a photon of light.
– The distance between the orbits
determined the energy of the photon of light
produced.

Fireworks typically contain the salts of such metals as
sodium, calcium, strontium, barium, and copper.

7.4 The Wave Nature of Matter: The de Broglie Wavelength, the Uncertainty Principle, and
Indeterminacy
• de Broglie predicted that the wavelength of a particle was inversely proportional to its
momentum.
• Because it is so small, the wave character of electrons is significant.

xxElectron Diffraction
• Proof that the electron had wave nature came a few years later with the demonstration that a beam of
electrons would produce an interference pattern the same as waves do.
However, electrons
actually present an
interference pattern,
demonstrating they
behave like waves.
xxElectron Diffraction
• Proof that the electron had wave nature came a few years later with the demonstration that a beam of
electrons would produce an interference pattern the same as waves do.
If electrons behave only like particles, there should only be two bright spots on the target.
Complementary Properties互補屬性 粒子與波不會同時存在
• When you try to observe the wave nature of the electron, you cannot observe its particle nature, and vice versa.
– Wave nature = interference pattern
– Particle nature = position, which slit it is passing through
• The wave and particle nature of the electron are complementary properties.
– As you know more about one you know less about the other.

Solution
Check
The units of the answer (m) are correct. The magnitude of the answer is very small, as expected for the wavelength of an electron.
For Practice 7.4
What is the velocity of an electron that has a de Broglie wavelength approximately the length of a chemical bond?
Assume this length to be 1.2 × 10–10 m.
Continued
Example 7.4 De Broglie Wavelength
Uncertainty Principle
• Heisenberg stated that the product of the
uncertainties in both the position and speed of a particle was inversely proportional to its mass.
– x = position, Dx = uncertainty in position – v = velocity, Dv = uncertainty in velocity – m = mass
• This means that the more accurately you know the position of a small particle, such as an
electron, the less you know about its speed, and vice versa.
xxUncertainty Principle Demonstration
Any experiment designed to observe the electron results in detection of a single
electron particle and no interference pattern.
Xx Determinacy versus Indeterminacy
• According to classical physics, particles move in a path determined by the particle’s velocity,
position, and forces acting on it.
– Determinacy = definite, predictable future
• Because we cannot know both the position and velocity of an electron, we cannot predict the path it will follow.
– Indeterminacy = indefinite future, can only predict probability
• The best we can do is to describe the probability an electron will be found in a particular region
using statistical functions.
xxTrajectory versus Probability
xxElectron Energy
• Electron energy and position are complementary.
– KE = ½ mv2
• For an electron with a given energy, the best we can do is describe a region in the atom of high probability of finding it.
• Many of the properties of atoms are related to
the energies of the electrons.
xx7.5 Quantum Mechanics and the Atom
• Schrödinger’s equation allows us to calculate the probability of finding an
electron with a particular amount of energy at a particular location in the atom.
• Solutions to Schrödinger’s equation produce many wave functions, Y .
• A plot of distance versus Y2 represents an orbital, a probability distribution map of a
region where the electron is likely to be found.

Solution
First determine the possible values of l (from the given value of n). For a given value of n, the possible values of l are 0, 1, 2, . . . , (n – 1).
n = 4; therefore, l = 0, 1, 2, and 3
Next, determine the the possible values of ml for each value of l. For a given value of l, the possible values of ml are the integer values including zero ranging from –l to +l . The name of an orbital is its principal quantum number (n) followed by the letter corresponding to the value l. The total number of orbitals is given by n2.
For Practice 7.5

Solution
Choice (d) is erroneous because for l = 1, the possible values of ml are only –1, 0, and +1.

Check
The units of the answer (m) are correct for wavelength. The magnitude is reasonable because 10–6 m is in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. We know that transitions from n = 3 or n = 4 to n = 2 lie in the visible region, so it makes sense that a transition between levels of higher n value (which are energetically closer to one another) would result in light of longer wavelength.
