Study Notes
Electron Configuration in Energy Levels
- The 1st energy level can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.
- The 2nd energy level can accommodate up to 8 electrons.
- The 3rd energy level also has a maximum capacity of 8 electrons.
Oxygen Atom Characteristics
- Element name is Oxygen with atomic number 8.
- Chemical symbol for Oxygen is O.
- Atomic mass of Oxygen is 15.999.
- Contains 8 protons and 8 electrons, indicating it is electrically neutral.
- The number of neutrons in Oxygen is 8, calculated as 15.999 (mass number) - 8 (atomic number), rounded to 8.
Determining Neutron Count
- Neutron count can be found using the formula: mass number - atomic number.
- Rounding the answer when calculating neutrons is permissible.
Oxygen Bohr Model
- The Bohr model for Oxygen shows 2 electrons in the first ring and 6 electrons in the second ring, with no third ring required.
Sodium Atom Characteristics
- Element name is Sodium with atomic number 11.
- Chemical symbol for Sodium is Na.
- Atomic mass of Sodium is 22.990.
- Contains 11 protons and 11 electrons, reflecting electrical neutrality.
- Number of neutrons in Sodium is 12, computed as 22.990 (mass number) - 11 (atomic number), rounded to 12.
Sodium Bohr Model
- The Bohr model for Sodium includes three rings: 2 electrons in the 1st ring, 8 in the 2nd, and 1 in the 3rd, totaling 11 electrons.
