Interpretation:
U.V radiation is energetic enough to cause transitions in the energies of which kind of electrons in an atom has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Absorption spectrum: This is measurement of the amount of (UV-VIS) light absorbed by a liquid sample of a given path length. Absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration of matter in the sample.
The energy E of

- Schrodinger and de Broglie suggested a ‘Wave—particle duality" for small particles—that is, if electromagnetic radiation showed some particle-like properties, then perhaps small punicles might exhibit same wave-like properties. Explain. How does the wave mechanical picture of the atom fundamentally differ from the Bohr model? How do wave mechanical arbitals differ from Bohr’s orbits?
