Electrons Configurations Cartoon courtesy of NearingZero.net Wave-Particle Duality JJ Thomson won the Nobel prize for describing the electron as a particle. His son, George Thomson won the Nobel prize for describing the wave-like nature of the electron. The electron is a particle! The electron is an energy wave! The Wave-like Electron The electron propagates through space as an energy wave. To understand the atom, one must understand the behavior of electromagnetic waves. Louis deBroglie Spectroscopic analysis of the visible spectrum… …produces all of the colors in a continuous spectrum Electron transitions involve jumps of definite amounts of energy. This produces bands of light with definite wavelengths. Quantum Numbers Each electron in an atom has a unique set of 4 quantum numbers which describe it. Principal quantum number Angular momentum quantum number Magnetic quantum number Spin quantum number Pauli Exclusion Principle No two electrons in an atom can have the same four quantum numbers. Wolfgang Pauli Principal Quantum Number Generally symbolized by n, it denotes the shell (energy level) in which the electron is located. Number of electrons that can fit in a shell: 2n2 Angular Momentum Quantum Number The angular momentum quantum number, generally symbolized by l, denotes the orbital (subshell) in which the electron is located. Magnetic Quantum Number The magnetic quantum number, generally symbolized by m, denotes the orientation of the electron’s orbital with respect to the three axes in space. Assigning the Numbers The three quantum numbers (n, l, and m) are integers. The principal quantum number (n) cannot be zero. n must be 1, 2, 3, etc. The angular momentum quantum number (l) can be any integer between 0 and n - 1. For n = 3, l can be either 0, 1, or 2. The magnetic quantum number (m) can be any integer between -l and +l. For l = 2, m can be either -2, -1, 0, +1, or +2. Spin Quantum Number Spin quantum number denotes the behavior (direction of spin) of an electron within a magnetic field. Possibilities for electron spin: 1 2 1 2 Uncertainty Principle In 1927 by Werner Heisenberg (German theoretical physicist) electrons can only be detected by their interaction with light any attempt to locate a specific electron knocks the electron off course Uncertainty Principle Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle- it is impossible to know both the position and velocity of an electron We can find the most likely position of an electron Orbitals each sublevel is broken into orbitals each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons orbital- a 3D region around the nucleus that has a high probability of holding electrons An orbital is a region within an atom where there is a probability of finding an electron. This is a probability diagram for the s orbital in the first energy level… Orbital shapes are defined as the surface that contains 90% of the total electron probability. Sizes of s orbitals Orbitals of the same shape (s, for instance) grow larger as n increases… Nodes are regions of low probability within an orbital. The s orbital has a spherical shape centered around the origin of the three axes in space. s orbital shape P orbital shape There are three dumbbell-shaped p orbitals in each energy level above n = 1, each assigned to its own axis (x, y and z) in space. Things get a bit more complicated with the five d orbitals that are found in the d sublevels beginning with n = 3. To remember the shapes, think of “double dumbells” …and a “dumbell with a donut”!
