Chapter 2 Electrons and the Periodic Table CHE 101 Sleevi
Modern Atomic Theory • Early 1900’s – Birth of Quantum Mechanics • 1913 – Bohr proposed fixed orbits for electrons based on energy • Studied hydrogen emission spectrum • Worked for single electron • Model did not resolve all observations • 1926 – Schrödinger proposed quantum mechanical model of the atom • First mathematical model 2
Modern Atomic Theory Emission spectra due to change in energy levels of electrons: Ground State – electrons in atoms occupy lowest possible energy levels Excited State – electrons occupy higher energy levels by absorbing energy When e- falls to lower energy state, light is emitted

Quantum Mechanical Model of the Atom Continuous Quantized 6
Quantum Mechanical Model of the Atom • Principal energy levels (shells) • correspond to the discrete energy levels in the atom that can be occupied by electrons • designated by quantum number n (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, …) • contain sublevels • quantum number n designates number of sublevels at that energy level • Sublevels (subshells) • correspond to orbital type within a principal energy level (s, p, d, f) 7
Orbitals • Solution to the Schrödinger equation • Shape describes the probability of where electron will be found in space, at that energy (90%) • Overlay the nucleus • Increase in size as the principal energy level increases • Contain no more than 2 electrons 8
Orbitals Fig 2.8. (a) A burning sparkler produces a roughly spherical cloud of sparks. (b) Most (90%) of the sparks from this sparkler are located within a sphere with a 5 cm radius. (c) The sphere that contains 90% of the sparks represented by a solid surface.
Electronic StructureOrbital Shapes • Thes orbital has a spherical shape. • Thep orbital has a dumbbell shape. 10
Electronic StructureOrbital Shapes • Thed orbitals have multi-lobed shape. 11
Electronic StructureShells Shells with larger numbers (n) are farther from the nucleus, have a larger volume, and can therefore hold more electrons. Number of Electrons in a Shell Shell (n) 32 4 increasing number of electrons 3 18 increasing energy 2 8 1 2 15
Electron Configurations • Arrangement of electrons around the nucleus • Based on set of rules that comes from Quantum Mechanical model of the atom 16
Electron Configurations • Rules determine how orbitals are filled, based on number of electrons in the atom • Aufbau Principle • Pauli Exclusion Principle • Hund’s Rule 17
Aufbau Principle • Electrons enter orbitals of lowest energy first • Filling order: 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s ….. • Number in front = quantum number (PEL) • Letter designates sublevel (orbital type) • Maximum number of electrons depends upon the orbital type 18

Pauli Exclusion Principle • An orbital can contain 0, 1, or 2 electrons • Electrons have a property called spin • When there are two electrons in one orbital they have opposite spin 21
Hund’s Rule • When electrons occupy orbitals of equal energy, one electron enters each orbital with parallel spin a. b. c. 22
Following the rules… • Elements through Vanadium follow these rules • Most elements after that follow the rules • There are exceptions 23
Writing Configurations • Electron Configuration Diagram (aka orbital diagram) • Use horizontal lines for orbitals, • Arrows for electrons, • Direction of arrows for spin • Label rows with PEL and orbital designation (1s, 2s, 2p, etc.) • Follow Aufbau Rule, Pauli Exclusion Principle, Hund’s rule 24

Valence Electrons • Outermost electrons • Highest occupied principal energy level (largest quantum number) • Number of valence electrons = group number for the A groups (representative elements) • Determine the chemical properties of the elements • Determine number and type of bonds 32
More Practice! Lecture Problems #3 & #4 3. Circle the portion of the shorthand configuration in #2 that represents the valence electrons. 4. Draw the valence shell configuration diagram for the element in each of the representative groups in Period 4. (symbol, shorthand configuration) 33
Valence ElectronsElectron-Dot Symbols • Dots representing valence electrons are placed on the four sides of an element symbol. • Each dot represents one valence electron. • For 1–4 valence electrons, single dots are used. With > 4 valence electrons, the dots arepaired. H Element: O Cl C # of Valence electrons: 1 4 6 7 Electron-dot symbol: H C O Cl 34
Practice! Lecture Problem #5: Draw Lewis dot symbols for each of the following: S P Sr C Br Kr Na Al H O B N
Periodic Law When elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, there is a periodic pattern in their physical and chemical properties 36
Periodic Trends • Properties have trends with respect to location of elements on periodic table • Atomic Size • Ionization Energy • Metallic character • Electron affinity 37
Periodic TrendsMetallic Character • The metallic character of atoms increasesdown a column, as the valence e− are farther from the nucleus. Increases Decreases • The metallic character of atoms decreases across a row. 38
Periodic TrendsAtomic Size • The size of atoms increasesdown a column, as the valence e− are farther from the nucleus. Increases Decreases • The size of atoms decreases across a row, as the number of protons in the nucleus increases. • The increasing # of protons pulls the e− closer to the nucleus, making the atoms smaller. 39
Periodic TrendsIonization Energy The ionization energy is the energy needed to remove an electron from a neutral atom. Na + energy Na+ + e– Ionization energies decrease down a column as the valence e− get farther away from the positively charged nucleus. Decreases Increases Ionization energies increase across a row as the number of protons in the nucleus increases. 40
Periodic TrendsElectron Affinity Electron affinity is the attraction of an atom to gain one or more electrons F + e– F– No significant trend in electron affinity down a group Increases Electron affinity increases across a row. 41
Examples! Lecture Problem #6: Arrange the atoms in order of increasing size • B, C, Ne • F, S, Al • Kr, Ne, Xe • Ca, Mg, Be
Examples! Lecture Problem #7: Arrange the atoms in order of increasing ionization energy • P, Si, S • Ne, Kr, Ar • C, F, Be • Ca, Al, N
Formation of Ions • Ion: charged particle formed from a neutral atom by adding or removing electrons. The number of protons remains the same. • Cation: positive ion, formed from metal atoms by removing one or more electrons • Anion: negative ion, formed from nonmetal atoms by adding one or more electrons • Ion formula: element symbol with the charge of the ion as a superscript (on the right)
How do we determine the charge of the ion? Consider the valence electrons • Octet rule • ions are formed by the gain or loss of electrons to attain a noble gas configuration (8 e- in the valence shell)
Formation of IonsCations and Anions Cations are positively charged ions. A cationhas fewer electrons (e−) than protons.
Formation of IonsCations and Anions Anions are negatively charged ions. An anion has more e− than protons.
A few points to remember… • Electron transfer only occurs when there is an atom to receive the electrons • Number of electrons gained or lost usually does not exceed three • Group 4A nonmetals do not usually form ions
IonsRelating Group Number to Ionic Charge forGroups 1A–3A the cation charge = the group number group 1A: M 1 valence e− M+ + e− M 2 valence e− M2+ + 2e− group 2A: M 3 valence e− M3+ + 3e− group 3A:
