Study Notes
Atomic Structure
- An atom is electrically neutral because the number of protons equals the number of electrons.
Nuclear Atomic Model
- Thomson's Model:
- Proposed a model of the atom as a sphere of positive matter with electrons positioned by electrostatic forces.
- Rutherford's Model:
- Atoms have a dense central core (nucleus) containing positive charge.
- Protons have opposite (+) charge of electrons (-).
Quantum Mechanics Model
- Dual Nature of Electron:
- De Broglie's Postulate: Electron energy is quantized, and electrons exhibit wave-like behavior.
- Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle: It is impossible to know both the position and momentum of an electron with unlimited accuracy.
- Quantum Numbers:
- Principal Quantum Number (n): Describes the energy level of an electron.
- Azimuthal Quantum Number (l): Describes the shape of the orbital.
- Magnetic Quantum Number (ml): Describes the orientation of the orbital in space.
- Spin Quantum Number (ms): Describes the spin of an electron.
Atomic Orbitals
- Each set of n, l, and ml describes an orbital.
- Orbitals with the same value of n are in the same principal energy level.
- Orbitals with the same value of n and l are in the same subshell.
- Shapes of Atomic Orbitals:
- s Orbitals: Spherical
- p Orbitals: Like two balloons tied at the knots
- d Orbitals: Like four balloons tied at the knots
- f Orbitals: Like eight balloons tied at the knots
Electronic Configurations and Orbital Diagrams
- Electron Configuration: Describes how electrons are distributed among atomic orbitals.
- Orbital Diagrams:
- Represent orbitals as squares and electrons as arrows.
- Direction of the arrow represents the spin of the electron.
- Rules for Assigning Electron Configuration and Orbital Diagrams:
- Aufbau Principle: Electrons occupy orbitals in order of increasing energy.
