Study Notes
Atomic Structure
- Atoms are composed of three fundamental particles: electrons, protons, and neutrons.
- Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus, which is a tiny, dense core at the atom's center.
- Electrons orbit the nucleus.
- Electrons have a negative charge; protons have a positive charge; neutrons have no charge.
- The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton or neutron.
Atomic Number and Mass Number
- Atomic number (Z) is the number of protons in an atom's nucleus.
- Mass number (A) is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
- For a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons.
- The number of neutrons is calculated as A – Z.
Atomic Properties
- Atomic number (Z): identifies an element (e.g., Z = 6 for carbon).
- Mass number (A): identifies the isotope of an element.
- Elements exist as different isotopes based on variations in their numbers of neutrons, affecting mass but not chemical properties.
Periodic Table
- Elements in the periodic table are arranged by increasing atomic number (Z).
- Groups (vertical columns) show elements with similar chemical properties.
- Periods (horizontal rows) show trends in electron configurations and properties.
- The modern periodic table organizes elements by their atomic number and recurring chemical properties.
Trends in the Periodic Table
- Atomic radius: increases down a group and decreases across a period.
- Ionization energy: increases across a period and decreases down a group.
- Electronegativity: increases across a period and decreases down a group.
- Ionic radius: Metals tend to lose electrons and become smaller upon ionization (e.g., Ca > Ca2+); non-metals (right of table) tend to gain electrons becoming larger (e.g., O < O2-).
Quantum Numbers
- The four quantum numbers (n, l, ml, ms) describe an electron's properties within an atom's energy levels.
- n (principal quantum number): signifies the energy level.
- l (azimuthal quantum number): specifies the subshell or orbital shape (s, p, d, f).
- ml (magnetic quantum number): indicates the orbital's orientation.
- ms (spin quantum number): describes the electron's spin. Electron pairing describes how electrons fill orbitals.
Electron Configurations
- Electron configuration illustrates the arrangement of electrons in orbitals around the nucleus of an atom.
- Configuration is determined by the Aufbau principle.
- Valence electrons (outermost) are involved in chemical bonding.
Electron Orbital Shapes
- s orbitals are spherical, p orbitals are dumbbell-shaped, d orbitals have more complex shapes.
Electron Pairing Rules
- Hund's rule states that electron orbitals fill singly before doubling up.
- Pauli exclusion principle mandates that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers.
Chemical Bonds
- Ionic bonds: formed by the transfer of electrons between atoms, forming ions that attract each other.
- Covalent bonds: formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms.
- Polar covalent bonds: electrons are shared unequally due to differences in electronegativity leading to partial charges.
- Nonpolar covalent bonds: atoms share electrons equally.
- Polyatomic ions are multi-atom structures with a net charge.
Chemical Reactions
- Reactants are transformed into products via rearrangement or exchange of electrons.
- Balancing chemical equations ensures that atoms are conserved in a reaction.
- Identifying the limiting reagent helps determine the maximal amount of product possible.
- Stoichiometric mixtures react in exact mole ratios, maximizing product formation.
Atomic and Nuclear Concepts
-
Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons: Protons and neutrons make up the small, dense nucleus. Electrons exist outside the nucleus.
-
Atomic Number (Z): Identifies the number of protons and thus the element type.
-
Mass Number (A): The sum of protons and neutrons. Indicates the isotope of an element.
-
Isotopes: Forms of an element with varying numbers of neutrons.
-
Radioactive decay: Unstable nuclei transforming into more stable ones.
-
Modes of Decay: Alpha decay, beta decay, gamma decay, positron emission, and electron capture.
Chemical Bonding
-
Ionic bonding: Occurs when electrons are transferred between atoms, forming ions that attract each other.
-
Covalent bonding: Occurs when atoms share electrons. Polar covalent bonding is when electrons are shared unequally. Non-polar covalent is when electrons are shared equally.
-
Lewis structures: Represent atoms and bonds using dots to depict valence electrons.
-
VSEPR theory (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion): Predicts the shapes of molecules by considering the arrangement of electron pairs to minimize electrostatic repulsion.
-
Polarity: Differences in electronegativity may create polar bonds and molecules.
Properties of Water
- Water is a polar molecule due to its bent shape and uneven electron distribution.
- This polarity allows water to dissolve many ionic and polar substances. This is known as hydration.
- Water's properties are crucial for many biological processes.
