Wave-Particle Duality JJ Thomson won the Nobel prize for describing the electron as a particle. His son, George Thomson won the Nobel prize for describing the wave-like nature of the electron. The electron is a particle! The electron is an energy wave!

The Wave-like Electron Louis deBroglie The electron propagates through space as an energy wave. To understand the atom, one must understand the behavior of electromagnetic waves.

c = c = c = speed of light, a constant (3.00 x 10 8 m/s) = frequency, in units of hertz (hz, sec -1 ) = wavelength, in meters Electromagnetic radiation propagates through space as a wave moving at the speed of light.

E = h E = h E = Energy, in units of Joules (kg·m 2 /s 2 ) h = Planck’s constant (6.626 x J·s) = frequency, in units of hertz (hz, sec -1 ) = frequency, in units of hertz (hz, sec -1 ) The energy (E ) of electromagnetic radiation is directly proportional to the frequency ( ) of the radiation.

Long Wavelength = Low Frequency = Low ENERGY Short Wavelength = High Frequency = High ENERGY Wavelength Table

Answering the Dilemma of the Atom Treat electrons as wavesTreat electrons as waves As the electron moves toward the nucleus, the wavelength shortensAs the electron moves toward the nucleus, the wavelength shortens Shorter wavelength = higher energyShorter wavelength = higher energy Higher energy = greater distance from the nucleusHigher energy = greater distance from the nucleus Treat electrons as wavesTreat electrons as waves As the electron moves toward the nucleus, the wavelength shortensAs the electron moves toward the nucleus, the wavelength shortens Shorter wavelength = higher energyShorter wavelength = higher energy Higher energy = greater distance from the nucleusHigher energy = greater distance from the nucleus

The Electromagnetic Spectrum

This produces bands of light with definite wavelengths. Electron transitions involve jumps of definite amounts of energy.
