Topic: Atomic Concepts Aim:How are electrons arranged in an atom? Do Now: Draw a Bohr model for S-32. HW:
What about electrons? • Atomic # = ____ & ____ (for a neutral atom) • # of neutrons = ____ • The protons & neutrons are located ___ • How are electrons arranged in the electron cloud?
Arrangement of Electrons • Principal Energy Levels (PELs) • Show distance from nucleus • Up to 7 PELs • Electrons in different shells have different energies. • Low PEL# = close to nucleus = low energy • High PEL# = far from nucleus = high energy
Atom with PELs n = 1, low energy n = 2, more energy n = 3, more energy than 2 Nucleus containing p & n
Electron Configuration • How e- fill the PELs – how many e- are in each PEL • Always start with PEL #1 (closest to the nucleus) & work your way out • Once PEL #1 is full, the rest of the e- start to fill in PEL #2 till it’s full • This info is on the PERIODIC TABLE!
Example Electron Configuration The 2 means there are 2 electrons in PEL #1. (PEL #1 is full.) The 4 means there are 4 electrons in PEL #2.
More Examples • Magnesium & Zinc – for each… • Atomic # • # of e- • e- config • # of PELs occupied
Valence Electrons • OUTERMOST e- • These e- participate in chemical rxns with other atoms • Give an element its chemical properties • Last # of e- configuration • How many valence e- does magnesium have? Zinc? Valence e-
Lewis Dot Structures • Shows VALENCE e- as DOTS around ATOMIC SYMBOL • Symbol will have a MAXIMUM of 8 dots! Why? • • X • • • • • •
Examples • Draw the Lewis structures for the following elements: • Helium • Sulfur • Boron • Nitrogen • Neon
