Lesson 3 | Introduction to Polarity and Chemical Bonding

Cards (10)

  • Arranged by...
    1. by increasing atomic numbers
    2. vertically in groups/family
    3. horizontally in Period (7)
  • ELEMENTS IN THE PERIODIC TABLE
    • define by a specific set of quantum numbers
    • have specific electronic configuration
    Are selected in **Lewis Dot Symbol**
    Define chemical properties
  • Quantum Numbers
    • describe atomic orbitals as well as the properties of the e- in those orbitals
  • Principal Quantum Numbers (n)
    • size of orbital and main energy level
    the bigger n greater the distance of electron (e) in the orbitals from nucleus, larger orbital.
  • Azimuthal Quantum Numbers
    • number for an atomic orbital that determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.
  • Magnetic Quantum Numbers
    • oriental of orbital around nucleus
  • Spin Quantum Numbers
    • spins of electron either upward or downward
  • Electron Configuration
    • describe where electrons are located around the nucleus of an atom.
    • the goal is to describe the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus in the pattern that we found them in nature.
    • we can use this information to predict how atoms will form chemical bonds and how they behave so its very useful for us to understand chemical bonding.
  • Valence Electron
    -Electron (e) found in the outermost shell of an orbit or those that occupy the shell with the highest value of n and those that participate in chemical bonding.
  • Lewis Dot Symbol
    • Representation of the valence electron of an atom that uses dots around the symbol of the element. The number of dots equals the number of valence electrons in the atom.
