Statistical Mechanics Uncertainty Principle Demonstration Any experiment designed to observe the electron results in detection of a single electron particle and no interference pattern. Determinacy vs. Indeterminacy According to classical physics, particles move in a path determined by the particle’s velocity, position, and forces acting on it. Because we cannot know both the position and velocity of an electron, we cannot predict the path it will follow. The best we can do is to describe the probability an electron will be found in a particular region using statistical functions. Electron energy and position are complementary because KE = ½mv2. Statistical Mechanics For an electron with a given energy, the best we can do is describe a region in the atom of high probability of finding it. Trajectory vs. Probability Schrödinger’s Equation Erwin Schrödinger (1887–1961) Schödinger’s Equation allows us to calculate the probability of finding an electron with a particular amount of energy at a particular location in the atom. Solutions to Schödinger’s Equation produce many wave functions, Ψ. A plot of distance vs. Ψ2 represents an orbital, a probability distribution map of a region where the electron is likely to be found. Solutions to the Wave Function, Ψ Calculations show that the size, shape, and orientation in space of an orbital are determined by three integer terms in the wave function. These integers are called quantum numbers. principal quantum number, n angular momentum quantum number, l magnetic quantum number, ml The Quantum Numbers Principal Quantum Number, n Corresponds to Bohr’s energy level. The principal quantum number n can be any integer ≥1. The larger the value of n, the more energy the orbital has. Energies are defined as being negative. (An electron would have E = 0 when it just escapes the atom.) The larger the value of n, the larger the orbital. As n gets larger, the amount of energy between orbitals gets smaller. Principal Energy Levels in Hydrogen Angular Momentum Quantum Number, l The angular momentum quantum number determines the shape of the orbital. l can have integer values from 0 to (n – 1). Each value of l is called by a particular letter that designates the shape of the orbital. s orbitals (l =0) are spherical p orbitals (l =1) are like two balloons tied at the knots d orbitals (l =2) are mainly like four balloons tied at the knot f orbitals (l = 3) are mainly like eight balloons tied at the knot Magnetic Quantum Number, ml The magnetic quantum number is an integer that specifies the orientation of the orbital. Values are integers from −l to +l including zero. Gives the number of orbitals of a particular shape. Ex: when l = 2, the values of ml are −2, −1, 0, +1, +2; which means there are five orbitals with l = 2 The Hierarchy of Quantum Numbers for Atomic Orbitals Name, Symbol (Property) Allowed Values Quantum Numbers Principal, n Positive integer (size, energy) (1, 2, 3, ...) 1 Angular momentum, l 0 to n-1 (shape) 0 0 0 0 Magnetic, ml -l,…,0,…,+l (orientation) 2 3 1 0 1 2 0 -1 0 +1 -1 0 +1 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 Describing Orbitals Describing an Orbital Each set of n, l, and ml describes one orbital. (the “position” of one electron) Orbitals with the same value of n are in the same principal energy level (or principal shell). Orbitals with the same values of n and l are said to be in the same sublevel (or subshell). What are the quantum numbers and names of the orbitals in the n = 1 principal level?

When an electron is excited, it transitions from an orbital in a lower energy level to an orbital in a higher energy level. When an electron relaxes, it transitions from an orbital in a higher energy level to an orbital in a lower energy level. When an electron relaxes, a photon of light is released whose energy equals the energy difference between the orbitals. Each line in the emission spectrum corresponds to the difference in energy between two energy states. Energy Transitions in Hydrogen Bohr Model of H Atoms Quantum Leaps Predicting the Spectrum of Hydrogen The wavelengths of lines in the emission spectrum of hydrogen can be predicted by calculating the difference in energy between any two states. For an electron in energy state n, there are (n – 1) energy states it can transition to, therefore (n – 1) lines it can generate. Both the Bohr and Quantum Mechanical Models can predict these lines very accurately for a 1-electron system. Energy Transitions in Hydrogen The energy of a photon released is equal to the difference in energy between two energy levels. ΔEelectron = Efinal state − Einitial state Eemitted photon = −ΔEelectron It can be calculated by subtracting the energy of the initial state from the energy of the final state.
