ATOMIC STRUCTURE

Remember…

Atomic Number (Z) : the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom.

Mass Number (A) : the number of protons andneutrons in the nucleus of the atom.

Neutron Number (N) : A - Z = N

ATOMIC STRUCTURELOCATION OF ELECTRONS IN THE ATOM:LOCATION OF ELECTRONS IN THE ATOM:

•Sublevels have (degenerate states) thatSublevels have (degenerate states) that we call orbitals.we call orbitals.

These sublevels are named s, p, d, f, g, etc.These sublevels are named s, p, d, f, g, etc.

The energy level determines the numberThe energy level determines the numberof sublevels...of sublevels...

It turns out, in each orbital, there can be a maximum of two electrons.So...s- 2 electrons totalp- 6 electrons totald- 10 electrons totalf- 14 electrons total

ATOMIC STRUCTURE

Orbital diagrams and electron configurationsOrbital diagrams and electron configurations

Orbital diagrams help show how the electronsare distributed within the sublevels.

NOTICE THAT WHEN ELECTRONS PAIRTHEY HAVE OPPOSITESPINS.

PAULI EXCLUSION PRINCIPLE...PAULI EXCLUSION PRINCIPLE...

No two electrons can have the samequantum numbers or no more thantwo electrons can be found in anygiven orbital.

ATOMIC STRUCTURE

HUND’S RULE:the most stable arrangement of electrons

is that with the maximum number of unpairedelectrons, all with the same spin direction.

In other words…electrons don’t pair until they have too!

Another way to write this is by using noble gas notation

[Ne]3s2

Since Ne has a configuration of 1s22s22p6

Connections:

Do you see any relationship between the electron configuration and where the element is located on the Periodic Table?

ATOMIC STRUCTURE

You should be able to…•Write the electron configuration•Draw the orbital diagram•Write the noble gas notation•And predict the element
