Lecture day 1

For the first lecture of this unit we talked about Electronic Structure and Periodic Trends. The main points that were covered were the wave nature of light as well as the relationship between wavelength frequency and the speed of light.


This is an image of the nature of light; here is the visible light pointed in the entire electromagnetic spectrum:

Here is a website that goes into more detail in regards to wavelength and frequency. Here they explain more about the equation and calculating frequency: http://www.chemteam.info/Electrons/calc-freq-given-wavelength.html

Here is a link to a video explaining the calculations that take place: https://youtu.be/tIxqRSUDG6s
