  1. Quantum Mechanical Model Chapter 5 Section 2

  2. Quantum Mechanical Model • The model of the atom that treats electrons as waves • Like Bohr the quantum model limits an electron to certain energy levels • Unlike Bohr’s model it makes no attempt to describe an electrons path

  3. Vocabulary • Atomic Orbital – the 3D region around the nucleus that the wave function predicts • Principal quantum number (n) – indicates the relative size and energy of atomic orbitals • Principal energy level – energy levels indicated by the principal quantum levels • Energy sublevels – sublevels in principal energy levels

  4. Atomic Orbitals • Orbital shapes • Orbitals increase in size as principal quantum number increases • s, p, d, and f

  5. Energy Sublevels • The number of energy sublevels increases as the principal quantum number increases • Designated by s, p, d, and f

  6. Review Questions • Draw and Label the parts of a wave. • What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency? • List the electromagnetic spectrum from lowest frequency to highest frequency. • What is the frequency and energy of a microwave 0.060 m in length? • Draw an atom in the ground state and the excited state. • Describe the photoelectric effect. • Describe how an emission spectra is formed. • Compare and Contrast the Bohr Model and the Quantum Mechanical Model.
