Ch. 13 Electrons in Atoms Ch. 13.1 Models of the Atom Ch. 13.2 Electron Arrangement in Atoms Ch. 13.3 Physics and the Quantum Mechanical Model
Ch. 13.1 Models of the Atom • Evolution of Atomic Models • John Dalton – atomic theory • JJ Thomson – plum pudding model • Ernst Rutherford - nuclear atom • Niels Bohr – planetary model • Fixed energy levels • Quantums of energy • Schrodinger – quantum mechanical model
Ch. 13.1 Models of the Atom • The quantum mechanical model • Primarily mathematical model • Restricts energy of electrons • Estimates probability if finding an electron in a certain position • 90% probability
Ch. 13.1 Models of the Atom • Atomic orbitals • Designates energy levels of electrons with principal quantum numbers (n) • n=1, n=2, n=3, n=4 and so on • The principal energy levels have a specific number of sublevels • The sublevels are designated s, p, d, and f • Sublevels have specific numbers of orbitals • The orbitals have specific shapes that correspond to the path of the electrons • Nodes are areas where the probability of finding electrons is low
Ch. 13.2 Electron Arrangement in Atoms • Electron Configurations • The ways in which electrons are arranged around the nucleus of an atom • Three rules explain how to find the electron configuration of atoms • Aufbau principle – e- enter the lowest energy level first • Pauli exclusion principle – an atomic orbital may hold at most 2 e- (with opposite spin) • Hund’s rule – when e- occupy orbitals of equal energy, one e- enters each orbital until all the orbitals contain one e- with parallel spins • Exceptional electron configurations – Cr, Cu
Ch. 13.3 Physics and the Quantum Model • Light and atomic spectra • Electromagnetic radiation • Amplitude – height of wave from origin • Frequency – measured in hertz (Hz) • Wavelength – distance between crests (nm) • Speed – speed of light (a constant, c) • v = c/l • Frequency = speed/wavelength • Visible spectrum (ROY G BIV) • Atomic emission spectra (fingerprint)
Ch. 13.3 Physics and the Quantum Model • The quantum concept and the photoelectric effect • Max Planck • Amount of energy absorbed or emitted is proportional to the frequency of the radiation • E = hv(energy = Planck’s constant x frequency) • h = 6.6262 x 10-34 Js • Albert Einstein • Light can be described as quanta of energy (photons) • Dual nature of light (waves and particles) • First to explain the photoelectric effect • Energy must meet a threshold value to eject e- from the surface of metal
Ch. 13.3 Physics and the Quantum Model • An explanation of atomic spectra • When energized, e- move from the ground state to an excited state (n = 2,3,4, etc) • The same amount of energy that was absorbed is then emitted as light and the e- falls back down to a lower energy level • Results in Lyman, Balmer and Paschen series • An upper limit for the frequency of light emitted exists because a very excited e- will escape the atom • Bohr’s model of the atom was not able to explain bonding and was eventually replaced
Ch. 13.3 Physics and the Quantum Model • Quantum mechanics • De Broglie’s equation predicts that all matter exhibits wave-like motions • True for all matter, but motion depends on the size of the object • Wavelengths for objects visible to the naked eye are not measurable • Wavelengths for extremely small objects are measurable • Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle • It is impossible to know exactly both the position and velocity of a particle at the same time • The more precise the measured velocity, the less precise the position, and vice versa
