Ionic Bonding
The ionization energy (IE) and the electron affinity (EA) are two
X+(g) + e
E = IE of X
X(g) + e
Important:
X(g)
E = EA of X

c =
The speed of a light wave in a vacuum is a constant and does not depend
on wavelength or frequency.
c = 3 x 108 m s-1
= c/
low frequency long wavelength
Electromagnetic Radiation
Red light has a lower frequency and longer wavelength than violet
light.
Visible light is only a small component of the electromagnetic
spectrum.
E = h
Blue light has a higher frequency than red light and so the photons
of blue light have a higher energy than those of red light.
