Matter Wave and de Broglie's Atomic Model

Matter Wave and de Broglie’s Atomic Model

Light has both particle and waves properties at the same time. Likewise, de Broglie (France, 1892 – 1987) thought that such things as electrons that had so far been considered particles might possess wave nature (1932). … more

Line Spectrum and Continuous Spectrum

Line Spectrum and Continuous Spectrum

A solid metal can be made by grouping several hot gaseous (monatomic) metals together. What is the difference between emission spectra in the gas (monatomic) and solid state? The simulation above is a simple example and … more

Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)

Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)

A cathode ray tube (CRT) is a device that produces cathode rays (a stream of electrons). The inside of the tube is evacuated or filled with a noble gas. When a high voltage is applied to … more

Arrange the element cards As Mendeleev did. You can move three or more consecutive cards as a group by dragging the middle. You can view it in full-screen mode by clicking the full-screen button. (There is … more

Rutherford Scattering and Size of Nucleus

Rutherford Scattering and Size of Nucleus

Discovery of nuclear At the beginning of the 20th century, there was little known about the structure of atoms except that they contained electrons. At that time, the atom was known as a pudding model containing … more

Spectrum of Hydrogen Atom

Spectrum of Hydrogen Atom

Spectrum of hydrogen At the time of Rutherford’s experiments, chemists analyzed chemical components using spectroscopy, and physicists tried to find what kind of order in complex spectral lines. For example, a hydrogen arc tube containing hydrogen, … more

Energy Band of Metal

Energy Band of Metal

Energy band and band gap of atom According to Niels Bohr’s atomic model, electrons subordinate to an atomic nucleus do not have continuous energy. Electrons can only have sparsely defined energies. This is why lines in … more
