vd te will NOT blow up the lab! Date: _ n/a Flame Vest Lal [SESSSee Relate light emission and the movement of electrons to element identifications Purpose: To relate the light emission resulting from the movement of electrons to element identifications Introduction: Atoms often release light waves that fall into the visible portion of _the electromagnetic spectrum, The table below gives wavelengths of various ~ colors of the spectrum, Violet 380 to 450 nm Blue. 450 to 495 nm 4 Green“ 495 to 570 nm 4 Yellow 570 to 590 nm Orange 590 to 620 nm q Red 620 to 750 nm Materials: Known samples 6 Bunsen burners 6 wires 6 beakers ‘Matches Safety: Wear goggles and apron. Observe fire safety rules. Procedure: 1. Record electron configuration and noble gas notation of the element in the data table. 2. Draw the orbital diagram of the element. 3. Go toastation, and light the Bunsen burner. a. Tighten the column by turning all the way to the right. b. Loosen by turning two turns to the left ¢. Light a match, and hold the lit match over the column, d, Turn on the gas. €. Adjust the flame by decreasing the gas or tuming the column. 4. Dip the wire into the sample in the evaporating dish, 5. Hold the wet wire in the Bunsen burner flame at the tip of the inner blue cone. Observe the color of the flame. Record the color of the flame in the data table. Repeat steps 3-8 at each known sample station. exe foros €x Bubbx Results: 3 99 ower 7 + omenead | 29 Save for periodicity flame color | Calculated | Calculated anit and | franoeney of | energy of Electron Orbital Diagram | Element ‘estimated the wave. the wave Configuration: Noble ee wavelength a Noble Gas, Notation nm Sec “| Notation, Baksh F.q4qxW0" Potassium a | apne 23.10 i ‘4 one s [Ac 4s 4s 7 gie«nion gel eam ~~ = p= S700m ew xle | Exeqtse tof oonge a Sodium “ * 7 “i “heave 5.09x10" | 339 x0 (ned, 3 A00m : can oangerrec . a a eum Feoo-nnr — boomro™ aan a¢t6 [Ac Tus> 44 green 4 Copper beoxio” A 0 | ; 506s S00 | Cacaiy' ae Sh 2 2 as ae Rok shoonge .
