  • 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
    1. Werne Heisenberg
    2. Louis de Broglie
    3. Erwin Schrondinger
    4. Alber Einstein
  • Other physicist:
    1. Max Planck
    2. Paul Dirac
    3. Wolfgang Pauli
    4. 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 - 1
    p - 3
    d - 5
    f - 7
  • names
    S (sphere)
    P (primary)
    D (diffuse)
    F (fundamental)
  • Sub-energy level / orbital
    s - 0
    p - 1
    d - 2
    f - 3
  • 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
  • 19
    sushells containing electrons
  • 42
    total electrons can all "p" subshell house
  • Noble Gases
    2 He
    10 Ne
    18 Ar
    36 Kr
    54 Xe
    86 Rn
    118 Og
  • 118
    maximum electron can exist in an atom
  • 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 = 2
    p = 6
    d = 10
    f = 14
  • Aufbau Principle
    german word "Aufbean" to build
    originates from Pauli's exclusion
  • Unusual Electron Configuration
    Cu (copper)
    Ag (silver)
    Au (gold)
    Pd (palladium)
    Cr (chromium)
    Mo (molybdenum)
