    Study Notes

    Conservation of Mass and Electron Configuration

    • Table salt, sodium chloride, is created from a reaction between sodium metal and chlorine gas
    • The law of conservation of mass states that the mass of the reactants always equals the mass of the products in a chemical reaction
    • In a closed system, the mass on the left side of the arrow always equals the mass on the right side of the arrow in a chemical reaction
    • Chemical reactions can be described using word equations or chemical equations, with the latter needing to be completely balanced to demonstrate the conservation of mass
    • Electron configuration determines the reaction of materials to a magnetic field
    • Electrons are placed in atomic orbitals and follow specific laws for distribution and placement
    • Hund's rule dictates the filling of orbitals of equal energy
    • Pauli's Exclusion Principle states that no two electrons in the same atom can have identical quantum numbers
    • Diamagnetic electrons are paired electrons with opposite spins that cancel each other out, resulting in a net spin of 0
    • Diamagnetic materials have a slight, negative susceptibility to magnetic fields
    • The net spin of an orbital influences the magnetic properties of a material
    • The creation of magnetism in materials within a magnetic field depends on the configuration of electrons
