  3. Moseley's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moseley's_law

    Moseley's periodic law, concerning the modern periodic table. Auger electron spectroscopy, a similar phenomenon with increased X-ray yield from species of higher atomic number. Discovery of the neutron Mosley's law was an important step in the development of the understanding of the atom.

  4. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    Periodic table of the chemical elements showing the most or more commonly named sets of elements (in periodic tables), and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. The f-block actually fits between groups 2 and 3 ; it is usually shown at the foot of the table to save horizontal space.

  5. Atomic orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_orbital

    This relativistic increase in momentum for high speed electrons causes a corresponding decrease in wavelength and contraction of 6s orbitals relative to 5d orbitals (by comparison to corresponding s and d electrons in lighter elements in the same column of the periodic table); this results in 6s valence electrons becoming lowered in energy.

  6. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    The higher energy (shortest wavelength) ranges of UV (called "vacuum UV") are absorbed by nitrogen and, at longer wavelengths, by simple diatomic oxygen in the air. Most of the UV in the mid-range of energy is blocked by the ozone layer, which absorbs strongly in the important 200–315 nm range, the lower energy part of which is too long for ...

  7. Hydrogen spectral series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_spectral_series

    The equation must be modified based on the system's Bohr radius; emissions will be of a similar character but at a different range of energies. The Pickering–Fowler series was originally attributed to an unknown form of hydrogen with half-integer transition levels by both Pickering [ 17 ] [ 18 ] [ 19 ] and Fowler , [ 20 ] but Bohr correctly ...

  8. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    Like the periodic table, the list below organizes the elements by the number of protons in their atoms; it can also be organized by other properties, such as atomic weight, density, and electronegativity. For more detailed information about the origins of element names, see List of chemical element name etymologies.

  9. Emission spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emission_spectrum

    The emission spectrum can be used to determine the composition of a material, since it is different for each element of the periodic table. One example is astronomical spectroscopy: identifying the composition of stars by analysing the received light. The emission spectrum characteristics of some elements are plainly visible to the naked eye ...
