Electrons in Atoms & Periodic Table 1
Where Are the Electrons? Quantum Theory or Wave Theory: a description of the electron configuration. One of the greatest achievements of mankind. 2
Arrangement of e - in Atoms Determines: chemical reactivity bonding between atoms Periodic Table many physical properties 3
Atomic Models: History Each atomic model was eventually replaced because of new experimental evidence. 1 2 3 4
Dalton: 1803 Concept of the atom as smallest unit of an element. Indivisible particle 5
Thomson: 1897 Discovered the e - Atom has parts!! electron positive charge Plum pudding model 6
Rutherford: 1911 Au foil experiment Dense nucleus with positive charge Most of atom is empty space + Nuclear model 7
Nuclear Model: Problem Opposite charges attract, so what keeps the electrons and nucleus apart? + 8
Bohr: 1913 e - held in orbits Motion of e - keeps them from falling into nucleus Similar to planets around sun 9
Bohr: Planetary Model e - move in circular orbits around nucleus, and each orbit has a certain energy. 10
Bohr: Planetary Model E 3 E 2 E 1 + Quantized energy levels 11
Bright Line Spectrum of Hydrogen 12
energy Stair Analogy: H spectrum due to e - transition between orbits. E 5 E 4 Stairs are quantized. E 3 E 2 Not a ramp E 1 13
energy e - in Ground State E 5 E 4 Ground state is lowest energy of the e -. E 3 E 2 E 1 14
energy e - in Excited State E 5 e - absorbs energy to move to a higher energy level. E 4 E 3 E 2 E 1 15
energy e - in Excited State E 5 E 4 E 3 E 2 E 1 16
energy e - Returning to Ground E 5 e - gives off energy as light photon E 4 E 3 E 2 E light =E excited -E ground E 1 17
E light =E excited -E ground The energy of the light is the difference between the higher and lower energy level of the electron. Each energy of light corresponds to a unique color of light. 18
energy e - Returning to Ground E 5 E 4 lower energy photon E 3 E 2 E 1 19
Bohr: Hydrogen Emission Spectrum E 3 E 2 E1 + e - absorbs energy (heat, elec.) e - falls to lower E and gives off energy as light E light =E 3 -E 1 20
Bohr Theory: Failings Why do e - only have certain orbit energies? Only explains the hydrogen atom exactly. 21
Quantum Mechanics (Wave Theory) 1926: E. Schrodinger Currently accepted theory Can not determine exact location of an electron! Wow! 22
Quantum Mechanics e - in atomic orbitals Can only determine the probability of locating an electron. electron cloud 23

Wave Model Each e - is arranged in an atom according to its energy. 3rd energy level (higher shell) + 2 nd energy level 1 st energy level (lowest shell) 26

Regents e - Notation Regents Periodic Table gives the number of electrons in each energy level or shell. 1 st shell - 2 nd shell - 3 rd shell [C] = 2-4 28
Regents e - Configuration What is the e - configuration for: 1. sodium 2. argon 3. calcium 4. copper 7. lead 6. radium (Ra) What is the maximum electrons in: Shell 1? Shell 2? Shell 3? 29
Regents e - Configuration What happens to the number of electrons in each shell going from: Ca to Sc? Zn to Ga? 30
Noble Gases At end of each row in Periodic Table are the noble or inert gases with 8 e - in the highest shell. Stable (not reactive) elements 31
Periodic Table by Shell 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 3 4 5 4 5 6 5 6 7 6 7 4 5 Transition elements Inner transition elements 32
Valence Electrons Electrons that are in the highest energy level are called valence electrons. These are the most important electrons when atoms bond. Why? How many valence electrons in: Li Fe Cu 33
Valence Electrons Note all elements in a Group have same number of valence electrons. Group 1: Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Fr Group 16: O, S, Se, Te, Po This is why elements in the same group have similar properties. 34
Excited State Remember excited state? (e - have absorbed energy to move to a higher energy level) [Al] is 2-8-3 ground state Al [Al]* could be 2-8-2-1 excited state Al What element is 2-7-6-1? 35
Flame Test (Lab) Adding energy can cause e - to jump from ground state (as written in Regents table) to excited state. When e - falls back, it emits light. 36
Flame Test for Copper Cu atom in excited state: 2-8-17-2 Cu atom in ground state: 2-8-18-1 Can return to ground state by emitting energy 37
Flame Test for Copper Which photon has greater energy: When an e - the falls from E 5 to E 3 or When an e - the falls from E 5 to E 2? 38
Emission Spectrum Flame test Neon signs Fireworks Fireplace colors 39
Bonding Electron configurations are the key to bonding. Atoms become ions to achieve Noble gas electron configuration. 40
Atoms vs. Ions F atom: [F] = 2-7 What does F need in order to have the e - configuration of a Noble gas? F - ion: [F - ] = 2-8 = [Ne] Na atom: [Na] = 2-8-1 Na + ion: [Na + ] = 2-8 = [Ne] 41

Atomic Radius: Trends????????? OK (model) 55
Atomic Radius Down a Group: size increases due to adding electrons to higher energy levels (shells) further from the nucleus. 56
Atomic Size: Across a Period Electrons added to same shell Nuclear charge increases (more p + ) Greater inward pull on the electrons Atoms get smaller p + =11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 2-8-1 2-8-3 2-8-5 2-8-8 57

Ionization Energy (I) Chemical properties determined by valence electrons. First ionization energy (I): energy (kj/mol) to remove a valence e - from an atom. If ionization energy is high, e - held tightly. 61
Ionization Energy I is endothermic (need to put energy in to pull off an e - ) I + X(g) X + (g) + e - ionization energy 62

Electronegativity Group Trend: EN decreases going down a group. Atoms get larger, so bonding e - are farther from the nucleus. Period Trend: EN increases going across a period. Atoms get smaller, so bonding e - are closer to the nucleus. (Same trend as ionization energy.) 76
