amplitude - ANS - of a wave is the wave's height from zero to the crest.
\atomic emission spectrum - ANS - the wavelengths of these spectral lines are
characteristics of the element and they make up the atomic emission spectrum of
the element
\Atomic Orbital - ANS - describing the probability of finding an electron at various
locations around the nucleus.
\Aufbau Principle - ANS - electrons occupy the orbitals of lowest energy first
\Chart on Electron Configuration
(goes in diagonal order) - ANS - 1s

3s 3p 3d
4s 4p 4d 4f
5s 5p 5d 5f
6s 6p 6d
7s 7p 7d
\Electromagnetic Radiation - ANS - includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared
waves, visible light, ultra violet waves, x-rays and gamma rayed
\Electron Configuration - ANS - the ways in which electrons are arranged in
various orbitals around the nuclei of atoms
\Energy Level - ANS - the fixed energies an electron can have are called energy
levels
\Exponents used in electron configuration - ANS - s:2
p:6
d:10
f:14
\Frequency - ANS - represented by the ν is the number of wave cycles to pass a
given point per unit of time
\Ground State - ANS - when the electron has the lowest possible energy, the atom
is in ground state
\Heisenberg uncertainty Principle - ANS - states that it is impossible to know both
the velocity and the position of a particle at the same time.
\Hertz - ANS - units of frequency are usually cycles per second. SI unit of cycles
per second is called a hertz
\Hund's Rule - ANS - electrons occupy orbitals of the same energy in a way that
makes the number of electrons with the same spin direction as large as possible.
For example, three electrons would occupy three orbitals of equal energy as
