Electromagnetic radiation – energy that travels through space as waves. Waves have three primary characteristics: • Wavelength (- lambda) – distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs in a wave. Unit = meter • Frequency ( = nu) – indicates how many waves pass a given point per second. Unit = Hertz (Hz) • Speed – velocity (c = speed of light = 3 x 108 m/sec) - indicates how fast a given peak moves in a unit of time c =
Electromagnetic radiation (light) is divided into various classes according to wavelength.
Wave- Particle Theory – Light as waves – Light as photons (de Broglie) Photon/quantum – packet of energy – a “particle” of electromagnetic radiation
Energy - (E – change in energy) – Unit Joules (J) Planck’s Constant – (h = 6.626 x 10-34 J * s) Ephoton = h Change in Energy of a photon = (Planck’s Constant) x (frequency) c = + Ephoton = h = Ephoton = hc Ex: What is the wavelength of light with a frequency of 6.5 x 1014 Hz? What is the change in Energy of the photon? E = hc ΔE = 4.3 x 10-19 J • = c • Given • = 6.5 x 1014 Hz = ? ΔE = ? = 3 x 108 m/sec 6.5 x 1014 Hz • = (6.626 x 10-34 J x s)(3 x 108 m/s) • 4.6 x 10-7 m λ= 4.6 x 10-7 m
Wrap – up So with light waves, you can convert between wavelength, frequency, and energy with two equations: l = c E = h And two constants: c = 3 * 108 m/s h = 6.626 * 10-34 J s In the visible part of the spectrum, different colors correspond to different frequencies, wavelengths and energies. Blue light has a short wavelength, high frequency and high energy. Red light has a long wavelength, low frequency, and low energy.
Learning Check The wavelength of red light was measured as 695 nm. • Calculate the frequency. • Calculate the change in energy.
Excited State – atom with excess energy Ground State – lowest possible energy state Wavelengths of light carry different amounts of energy per photon Only certain types of photons are produced (see only certain colors) Quantized – only certain energy levels (and therefore colors) are allowed
Emission and Absorption Spectra Intensity Color Emission Spectrum – bright lines on a dark background. Produced as excited electrons return to a ground state – as in flame tests. Absorption Spectrum – dark lines in a continuous spectrum. Produced as electrons absorb energy to move into an excited state, only certain allowable transitions can be made. Energy absorbed corresponds to the increase in potential energy needed to move the electron into allowed higher energy levels. The frequencies absorbed by each substance are unique.
An Element’s Fingerprint • When excited by heat or electricity, gases glow with characteristic colors. • A prism can be used to spread out the light from these hot gases. • This reveals a series of discrete lines, the element’s fingerprint. • Chemists use these fingerprints (called spectral lines) to identify elements both in the lab and in space.

Bohr Model – suggested that electrons move around the nucleus in circular orbits Only Correct for Hydrogen Wave Mechanical Model – Described by orbitals gives no information about when the electron occupies a certain point in space or how it moves *aka – Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle

Sublevel – exist within each principle energy level -the energy within an energy level is slightly different -each electron in a given sublevel has the same energy -lowest sublevel = s, then p, then d, then f
Parts of the Wave Mechanical Model cont. 3. Orbital – region within a sublevel or energy level where electrons can be found s sublevel – 1 orbital p sublevel – 3 orbitals d sublevel – 5 orbitals f sublevel – 7 orbitals - ** No more than two electrons can occupy an orbital** -an orbital can be empty, half-filled, filled
Electron Configuration – arrangement of the electrons among the various orbitals of the atom Ex: 1s22s22p6 = Neon Sulfur = 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4 1s2 2p6 Cd = 2s2 4p6 5s2 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4d10 2s2 1s2 2p6 3s1 Na = Ne Na

Shapes of orbitals All s orbitals are spherical as the principle energy level increases the diameter increases. All p orbitals are dumbbell or figure-8 shaped – all have the same size and shape within an energy level
4 of the d orbitals are 4-leaf clover shaped and the last is a figure-8 with a donut – all have the same size and shape within an energy level
Electron Spin Spin – motion that resembles earth rotating on its axis– clockwise or counterclockwise Pauli Exclusion Principle – two electrons in the same orbital must have opposite spins Hund’s Rule – All orbitals within a sublevel must contain at least one electron before any orbital can have two Orbital Diagram – describes the placement of electrons in orbitals • use arrows to represent electrons with spin • line represents orbital (s=1, p=3, d=5, f=7) ____ full ____ half-full ____ empty

Periodic Table Dimitri Mendeleev-1869- developed the first version of the periodic table. He expressed the regularities as a periodic function of the atomic mass. Henry Moseley- revised Mendeleev periodic table by describing regularities in physical and chemical properties as periodic functions of the atomic number
Periods – horizontal rows • Period number corresponds to the principal quantum number of valence electrons Groups (family) – vertical column Elements with similar valence electrons configurations Group 1 – alkali metals – reactive Group 2 - alkaline earth metals – reactive Group 3-12 – transition metals Group 15 – nitrogen family Group 16 – oxygen family – reactive Group 17 – halogens – very reactive Group 18 – noble gases
Periodic Trends 1. Atomic Radius/Size – size of an atom Increases – down a group Decreases – across a period Size of ions Cation Ca+2/Ca Ca larger because Ca+2 lost 2 electrons Anion S-2/S S-2 larger because S-2 gained 2 electrons
2. Ionization Energy – energy required to remove an electron from an individual atom in a gas phase M(g) M+(g) + e- (energy to make a positive ion) • Metals lose electrons to non-metals so relatively low energy is needed • High ionization energy means an electron is hard to remove Decreases – down a group Increases - across a period
3. Electron Affinity – Electron affinity is the energy involved when an electron is added to a gaseous atom. • Negative values of energy mean that energy was released during the process. Atoms with negative values of electron affinity have a very strong attraction for electrons. • Positive values of electron affinity have very little attraction for electrons. (energy involved in negative ions) Decreases – down a group Increases - across a period
4. Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to draw electrons to itself when in a covalent bond. Consequently, the trends are the same as for electron affinity. The atoms with the highest electronegativity are fluorine, then oxygen, then nitrogen. It is also important to know that the electronegativity of hydrogen is slightly less than that of carbon. Decreases – down a group Increases - across a period
5. Metallic Character Increases – down a group Decreases – across a period Electronegativity Electronegativity

Bond- force that holds groups of two or more atoms together and makes them function as a unit bond energy- energy required to break the bond (tells the bond strength) Ionic bonding- between ionic compounds which contain a metal and a nonmetal • Atoms that lose electrons relatively easily react with an atom that has a high affinity for electrons • Transfer of electrons Covalent bonding- between two nonmetals • Electrons are shared by nuclei Polar Covalent bonding- unequal sharing of electrons • positive end attracted to the negative end • (delta) indicates partial charge
electronegativity-(p. 362) relative ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons to itself • The higher the atom’s electronegativity value, the closer the shared electrons tend to be to that atom when it forms a bonds Increases – across a period Decreases- down a group H-H = 2.1 - 2.1 = 0 Ex.

5 Steps for Covalently Bonded Lewis Structures • Find the total number of valence electrons. • Calculate the number of “needed” electrons to give each atom 8 electrons, except for H which wants 2. • Subtract valence electrons from the “needed” electrons. This is the number of bonding electrons. • Divide the bonding electrons by 2, to find the number of bonds. • Subtract the bonding electrons from the valence electrons to find the non-bonding electrons or lone pairs. • Choose a central atom and assemble the pieces to make all atoms involved stable. • • • • Br • Ex.
