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.
