  • If electrons behave only like particles, there should be only two bright spots on the target.

Trajectory Vs Probability

  • Audio 0:21:20.562074
    • If you know the forces acting on an object with classical trajectory, you can tell exactly where it will land
    • With electrons, you can only know with a degree of certainty where it will be

Uncertainty Principle Demonstration

Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle

  • Heisenberg stated that the product of the uncertainties in both the position and speed of a particle was inversely proportional to its mass.
    • x = position, Δx = uncertainty in position
    • v= velocity, Δv = uncertainty in velocity
    • m=mass
  • This means that the more accurately you know the position of a small particle, such as an electron, the less you know about its speed, and vice versa.

  • Stopped short for practice questions

Q1

  • An element has three stable isotopes with masses of 27.977 amu, 28.976 amu, and 29.973 amu. The heavier two isotopes have an abundance of 4.68 % and 3.09 %. What is the atomic mass of the element?

Q2

  • Rank in order of increasing mass
    • proton < neutron < electron
    • proton < electron < neutron
    • electron < neutron < proton
    • electron < proton < neutron

(answer is C)

Q3

    • 36 neutrons, 29 protons, and 29 electrons

Q4

When waves of equal amplitude from two sources are in phase when they interact, it is called => constructive interference
