  • Order of Orbital Filling - s < p < d < f
  • Pauli Exclusion Principle - no two elections in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers ,, elections must have opposite spins
  • Aufbau Principal - states that electrons fill lower-energy orbitals first before moving to higher-energy orbitals
  • Hund's Rule - every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied ,, electrons prefer to occupy empty orbitals to minimize repulsion
  • Pure Substance - made of only 1 type of particle
    ex: copper wire only has copper atoms
  • Mixtures - 2 or more substances that are not chemically bonded
  • Matter - defined as anything that possesses mass and occupies space
  • Three Main States of Matter
    • Solid
    • Liquid
    • Gas
  • Solids
    particles are tightly packed and held together by strong forces
  • Liquids
    particles are close together but not as tightly packed as solids, allowing them to flow
    • Gases
    expand to fill the shape and volume of their container
  • Plasma
    consists of an electrically charges gas, where particles are ionized and carry a charge
  • Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC)
    occurs at temperatures approaching absolute zero, causing particles to function as a single entity
  • Physical Changes - affect the appearance or state of a substance but don't change what the substance is
  • Intensive Property - doesnt depend on the amount of matter in a sample
  • Extensive Property - depends on the amount of matter in a sample
  • Chemical Changes - happen when a substance turns into something completely new
  • Chemical Property - describes the ability of a substance to change into a different substance
  • Phase Changes - physical processes where a substance transitions from one state of matter to another
  • Phase Changes
    • Melting - Solid to Liquid
    • Freezing - Liquid to Solid
    • Boiling - Liquid to Gas
    • Evaporation - Liquid to Gas
    • Condensation - Gas to Liquid
    • Sublimation - Solid to Gas
    • Deposition - Gas to Solid
  • John Dalton - proposed his theory of matter in 1803. pictured the atom as a solid
  • JJ Thomson - discovered that Dalton's atomic model was not accurate,, was able to discover negatively charged particles known as elections,, responsible for discovering the first election
  • Ernest Rutherford - discovered the Nuclear Model of an Atom
  • Neils Bohr - adapted Planck's theory to Rutherford's model of the atom
  • Arnold Sommerfeld - expanded their studies to enhance Bohr's model of an atom
  • Components of an Atom / Subatomic Particles
    • Proton
    • Neutron
    • Electron
  • Proton - has an electric charge of positive one (+1)
  • Neutron - has no electric charge,, makes up the nucleus of an atom
  • Electron - has an electric charge of negative one (-1)
    • The number of protons in an atom indicates what element an atom is
    • The number of an election is equal to the number of protons
  • Cation - the ion with positive charge is formed when the electron is REMOVED from an atom
  • Anion - the ion with the negative charge is formed when an electron is ADDED to an atom
  • Isotopes - kinds of atoms with the ​same number of protons but different number of neutrons
  • Proton = Electron = Atomic Number
    Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons
    Neutron = Mass number - Atomic number
