What is electromagnetic wave theory and how to explain it

Here we will discuss about electromagnetic wave theory. And what are the important characteristics of wave nature. What is electromagnetic wave theory Characteristics of waves Electromagnetic Wave Spectrum It is the arrangement of the electromagnetic radiations in order of increasing wavelength. Cosmic rays < Gamma rays < X-rays < UV < Visible < IR < […]

What are quantum numbers and how to assign value

Quantum numbers is the set of 4 numbers to get the complete information about the electron. Here we will discuss about their significance. What is Quantum number Quantum number gives the complete information of electron. it tells about the location, energy, the type of orbital occupied, shape and orientation of the orbital. Types of Quantum […]

What is Bohr atomic model & how to explain hydrogen spectrum

Here we will discuss about Bohr atomic model. We will also study how to explain the hydrogen spectrum. Bohr atomic model Bohr’s model explained the drawbacks of Rutherford’s model of atom. The important postulates of this model of atom are: 5. Like energy, angular momentum is also quantised. 6. Lowest energy state of the Hydrogen […]

How To Fill The Electronic Configuration Of Elements

Electronic configuration is the arrangement of electrons in the atomic orbital. Here, are the rules to write the configuration of electron in the atomic orbital. Rules for filling electronic configuration in an atomic orbital There are some rules to fill the electronic configuration in an element. Let’s discuss them one by one : Aufbau Principle […]

What is Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle in atomic structure

Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle is applicable for the microscopic particles only. Let’s discuss about the Uncertainty Principle in detail. What is Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle It is impossible to measure simultaneously the position and momentum of a small microscopic particle with absolute accuracy. if one of them is measured with absolute accuracy, the other becomes less accurate. […]

What is Rutherford’s scattering experiment in atomic structure

Rutherford scattering experiment involves the bombardment of thin foils with alpha particles. This results in the discovery of nucleus. Here, we will discuss about Rutherfords scattering experiment in structure of atom. What is Rutherford’s scattering experiment What are the observations of Rutherford’s scattering experiment What are the conclusions of Rutherford’s scattering experiment Structure of Rutherford’s […]

How to find the empirical formula and molecular formula

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of various elements in the compound. Molecular formula is the actual number of atoms present in the compound. Here, we will discuss more about the E.F. and molecular formula of the compound. What is empirical formula E.F. is the simple whole number ratio of elements in the […]
