Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Electron Configuration


1
Electron Configuration
  • Mapping the electrons

2
Electron Configuration
  • The way electrons are arranged around the nucleus.

3
Quantum Mechanical Model
  • 1920s
  • Werner Heisenberg (Uncertainty Principle)
  • Louis de Broglie (electron has wave properties)
  • Erwin Schrodinger (mathematical equations using
    probability, quantum numbers)

4
Heisenberg uncertainty principle
  • it is impossible to determine simultaneously both
    the position and velocity of an electron or any
    other particle with any great degree of accuracy
    or certainty.

5
Erwin Schrodinger
  • Formulated equation that describes behavior and
    energies of subatomic particles.
  • Incorporates both particle and wave behavior in
    terms of wave function
  • is proportional to the probability of
    finding an electron.
  • Leads to Quantum Mechanics we cannot pinpoint an
    electron in an atom but we can define the region
    where electrons can be in a particular time
    called a Probability map.a 3-dimensional area in
    space called an ORBITAL

6
Principal Quantum Number, n
  • Indicates main energy levels
  • n 1, 2, 3, 4
  • Each main energy level has sub-levels

7
Energy Sublevels
  • s p d f g

8
  • The principle quantum number, n, determines the
    number of sublevels within the principle energy
    level.

9
Orbital Quantum Number, l(Angular Momentum
Quantum Number)
  • Indicates shape of orbital sublevels
  • l n-1
  • l sublevel
  • 0 s
  • 1 p
  • 2 d
  • 3 f
  • 4 g

10
Orbital
  • The space where there is a high probability that
    it is occupied by a pair of electrons.
  • Orbitals are solutions of Schrodingers equations.

11
Orbitals
12
Visualizing the orbitals
13
Orbitals in Sublevels
  • Sublevel Orbitals electrons
  • s 1 2
  • p 3 6
  • d 5 10
  • f 7 14
  • g 9 18

14
Three rules are used to build the electron
configuration
  • Aufbau principle
  • Pauli Exclusion Principle
  • Hunds Rule

15
Aufbau Principle
  • Electrons occupy orbitals of lower energy first.

-Pauli Exclusion Principle(Wolfgang Pauli,
Austria, 1900-1958)-Electron Spin Quantum Number
  • An orbital can hold only two electrons and they
    must have opposite spin.
  • Electron Spin Quantum Number (ms)
  • 1/2, -1/2

19
Hunds Rule
  • In a set of orbitals, the electrons will fill the
    orbitals in a way that would give the maximum
    number of parallel spins (maximum number of
    unpaired electrons).
  • Analogy Students could fill each seat of a
    school bus, one person at a time, before doubling
    up.

Notations of Electron Configurations
  • Standard
  • Shorthand

Standard Notation of Fluorine
Number of electrons in the sub level 2,2,5

Main Energy Level Numbers 1, 2, 2
Sublevels
31
Shorthand Notation
  • Use the last noble gas that is located in the
    periodic table right before the element.
  • Write the symbol of the noble gas in brackets.
  • Write the remaining configuration after the
    brackets.
  • Ex Fluorine He 2s2 2p5
