Planetary Model
July 1913
Danish physicist Niels Bohr published the first of a series of three papers introducing his model of atom.
Quantum Mechanical Model
/
Electron Cloud Model
1926
New model emphasized that we cannot determine the exact position of the electron at a specific time
Quantum Numbers
set of numbers used to describe the position and energy of an electron in an atom
Energy Levels
/
Shells
before the electron cloud model
Niels Bohr speculated that electrons orbit at a fixed distance around the nucleus and has a definite energy
Four physicist in 1920s
Werne
Heisenberg
Louis
de Broglie
Erwin
Schrondinger
Alber
Einstein
Other physicist:
Max
Planck
Paul
Dirac
Wolfgang
Pauli
Richard
Feynman
Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
we must abandon the notion of an electron as a particle moving around the nucleus in a defined path
it is impossible to know precisely where an electron is and what path it follows
Principle Quantum number
also called main energy shell, shell, 1st quantum number
denoted by n
Angular Momentum Quantum Number
subshell or sub energy level
denoted by cursive l
describe the general shape an electron occupies
Orientation:

S (
sphere
)
P (

Magnetic Quantum Number
denoted by ml
describes the orbital
orientation
in space
Spin Quantum Number
denoted by ms
describe the spin for a given electron
two associated spin:
+1/2
and
-1/2
single orbital can hold a max of
2
electron
Hund's Rule
all electrons occupy empty orbitals first; all must spin
upward
Atom
gains
electron = radius
increases
Pauli's Exclusion Principle
states that no two electron in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers
Johann Dobereiner
first chemist to recognize patterns in element with the law of triads
Ionization Energy
the energy needed/ required to remove an electron
Weights
Alexander Beguyer de Chanqourtios
- scientist who arranged all the known element in his time in periodic elements
John Newlands
scientist who suggested that elements should be arranges in octaves
7
maximum number of n in modern periodic time

Electron Affinity
trend that refers to the electron-wanting of an atom
Electron Configuration
distribution of electrons
a way to locate elements
"configure" means arrangement of electrons
how much it accomodates:
s =

p =

d =
10
f =
14
Aufbau Principle
german word "Aufbean" to build
originates from Pauli's exclusion

(palladium)
Cr
(chromium)
Mo
(molybdenum)
