FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What causes the phenomena of colors?

Back

The phenomena of colors is caused by the absorption and emission of light energy by electrons as they move away and towards the nucleus.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the role of electrons in chemical bonding?

Back

Electrons, particularly valence electrons, are involved in forming chemical bonds between atoms.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Explain the concept of quantized energy levels in atoms.

Back

Electrons in an atom exist in specific energy levels, and they can only gain or lose energy in discrete amounts when transitioning between these levels.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of the wave-particle duality of electrons?

Back

Wave-particle duality explains that electrons exhibit properties of both particles and waves, which is fundamental to understanding atomic structure and behavior.
