1 ELECTRON CONFIGURATIONS Shells: ( Quantum #’s ) ( Energy Levels) Are distinct energy levels in which electrons may be found. NOTE: As the shells are further away from the nucleus, the greater the energy of the electrons) e- P+N0 shells 1 – 7 ( electrons in 7 have the most energy) 2 Orbitals: Within each shell, electrons are found traveling in a distinct path that draws out a specific shape 4 orbital types: s p d f NOTE: Each orbital can hold up to 2es = spherical shape ( there is 1 s orbital p = figure 8 shape ( there are 3 p orbitals d = figure 8 with halos f = general craziness Each new shell starts with an s orbital and goes up from there. Subshells: are just a designation of which energy level and what orbital type the electrons are found in. Ex. 1s = 1st shell and spherical orbital type 3p = 3rd shell and figure 8 orbital type Shells: designated by 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 Orbitals designated by letters s,p,d,f Subshells designated number and letter 3p S orbital always fills first before p orbitals and each p orbital will pick up one electron before they fill 3 ELECTRON CONFIGURATION: tells the specific orbitals and shells that all of an elements electrons are found in. Example: Hydrogen Z= 1 Z stands for atomic number which = the number of protons and thus the number of electrons in an atom of an element. Electron configurations Hydrogen Z=1 1s1 Helium Z=2 1s2 Lithium Z= 3 Oxygen Z= 8 so… 1s22s1 4 s (l=0) p (l=1) d (l=2) f (l=3) n= 1 n= 2 n= 3 n= 4 n= 5 ... n= 6 n= 7 ... ... ... ... ... 5 LEWIS STRUCTURES: An abbreviated method to show how many outershell ean atom has. Covalent bonds: Chemical bonding in which outer shell e- are shared between atoms in order to fulfill the octet rule. - Hydrogen only forms covalent - Carbon compounds form covalent - Non-metals will form covalent w/ other nonmetals Ionic bonds: -Chemical bonding where outershell e- are transferred from one atom to another in order to fulfill the octet rule. -Alkali and Alkaline earth metals only form ionic 6 CHEMICAL BONDING: 2 types a. Covalent bonding: Electrons are shared between atoms in order to get 8e- in outer shell b. Ionic bonding: Electrons are transferred from one atom to another. IONIC BONDING: transfer of e9p+ 10n0 3p+4No Li + F ------- LiF 7 COVALENT BONDING : SHARING OF e9p+ 10no 9p+ 10no ISOTOPES: Atoms of the same element with different numbers of Neutrons Isotopes equal proton number C, C Isotones equal neutron number C, N Nuclide: The elements found on the periodic table with masses and atomic numbers listed. If they have any different #s of neutrons than they are isotopes. Nucleon: The subatomic particles that are found in the Nucleus Atomic number: (Z ) Represents the number of protons 8 in the nucleus. Defines the element. Atomic mass: (A) ( mass number) ( molar mass) The sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. 12 C Sample Problem: 14 C 13 C An atom of a given element has A= 56 . There are 25 neutrons in the nucleus. The atom has a -1 charge on it. a. b. c. d. e. What is this element? What is Z What is A How many protons does it have in the nucleus? How many electrons are present? IONIZATION ENERGY AND ELECTRON AFFINITY: These two factors have a huge impact on why certain elements are more reactive than others. The Alkali metals and alkaline earth metals become more reactive as you move down the family. Why? 9 ELECTRON AFFINITY: This is the attraction an atom has for electrons. Which would have a higher electron affinity? metals or non-metals? Why? IONIZATION ENERGY: This is the energy needed to bump the most loosely held electron off the outer shell of an atom. Which would have a higher ionization energy Metals or nonmetals? Why? THREE FACTORS EFFECTING IONIZATION ENERGY. 1. Nuclear Charge: (+) The greater the nuclear charge the higher the ionization energy. 2. Shielding Effect The inner e- tend to lower ionization energy because they shield the outer shell e- from the (+ ) nuclear charge. 3. Radius of the atom: The further away the outer shell e- the lower the ionization energy. 10 -radii decrease across a period because of increasing Z. -radii increase down a group because of the increasing distance of the electrons from the nucleus. - increasing distance from the nucleus outweighs effective nuclear charge for atomic radii down a group. 11 ELECTROMAGNETIC SPECTRUM The spectrum of energy consisting of alternating electric and magnetic waves. It consists of all wavelengths dealing with Longest to shortest wavelength : λ - greek letter lambda Electric - radio- microwaves- ir- roygbiv- uv- xray- gamma- cosmic Longest ----------------------------------------------------------shortest All travels at the speed of light ( c ) in a vacuum Emission Spectrum: The unique set of electromagnetic radiation given off by a substance when electrons are pushed to a higher energy level Absorption Spectrum: The unique set of electromagnetic radiation that is absorbed when a gaseous substance has white light shone on it. 12 Emission spectrum of iron Emission spectrum of hydrogen 13 Octet Rule: All atoms try to get 8 electrons in the outer shell to be chemically stable. - Note: One exception to this rule : The 1st shell can only hold 2eFAMILIES OF ELEMENTS: Vertical Columns on the periodic table Elements with similar chemical properties are called chemical families ( because they have the same # e- in the outer shell) PERIODS OF ELEMENTS: Horizontal rows with elements that have the same number of electron shells 14 IA Alkali metals: 1e- in outer shell - Most reactive metal family - All metals - Not found as free elements in nature - Oxidation # +1 - NaCl salt, NaF - toothpaste, - K (potassium in bananas electrolytes) - Solids @ room temp IIA Alkaline earth metals 2e- in outer shell - Second most reactive family of metals - Not found as a free element in nature - Ba, Mg, Sr, Ca - Oxidation # +2 - Uses BaSO4 – Xrays, CaO2 - glass - All solids @ room temp IIIA Boron Family 3e- in outer shell - Metals and nonmetals - Oxidation # +3 - B, Al, - All Solids @ room temp 15 - Found as free elements - Aluminum used in cans, roofs etc - Not highly reactive IVA Carbon Family (4e- in outer shell) - Metals and nonmetals - C, Pb, Sn - All solids - Not highly reactive family - Found as free elements - Uses lead batteries, xray , tin cans , carbon used everywhere.
