25
Instead electrons. Exist in certain regions called
Orbitals
26
Am ornital is a
3d region around the nucleus that indicates the probably location of an electron
27
According to the schrodinger equation electrons in atomic orbitals also have
Quantized energies
28
An electrons energy level is not the only characteristic of an orbital that is indicated by
Solving the schrodinger equation
29
Quantum numbers specify the properties of
Atomic orbitals and the properties of electrons in orbitals
30
The first 3 quantum numbers result from
Solutions to the schrodinger equation. They indicate the main energy level shape and orientation of an orbital
31
The fourth, spin quantum number, describes a
Fundamental state of the electron that occupied the orbital
32
The principal quantum number symbolized by n indicated the
Main energy level occupied by the electron
33
Values of n are
Positive integers only
34
As n increases the electrons energy and its average distance from the nucleus
Increase
35
An electron for which n = 1 occupied the
First (lowest) main energy level and is located closest to the nucleus
36
More than one electron can have the same
N value. These electrons are sometimes said to be in the same electron shell
37
Total number of orbitals that exist in a given she'll is
N^2
38
Except at the first main energy level orbitals of different
Shapes--known as sublevels-- exist for a given value of n
39
The angular momentum quantum number symbolized by l indicates the
Shape of the orbital
40
For a specific main energy level the number of orbital shapes possible is
Equal to n
41
The values of l allowed are
zero and all positive integers less than or equal to n-1
42
Depending on its value of l an orbital is
Assigned a letter
43
S orbitals are
Spherical
44
p orbitals have
Dumb bell shapes
45
D orbitals are more
Complex
46
In the first energy level n=1
There is only one sublevels possible an s orbital
47
second energy level n=2 has
2 sublevels the s and p orbitals
48
In the nth main energy level there are
N sublevels
49
Each atomic orbital is designated by the
Principal quantum number followed by the letter of the sublevels
50
Atomic orbitals can have the same
Shape but different orientations around the nucleus
51
The magnetic quantum number symbolized by m indicated the
Orientation of an orbital around the nucleus
52
Values of m are whole numbers including
Zero from -l to +l
53
Because an s orbital is spherical and is centered around the nucleus it has
Only one possible orientation
54
S Orientation corresponds to a magnetic quantum number of
M = 0
55
Only one s orbital in each
Sublevels
56
The loves of a p orbital extend along the
X y or z axis of s 3 dimensional coordinate system
57
There are 3 p orbitals in each
P sublevel which are designation as px py pz
58
The 3 p orbitals occupy different regions of space and those regions are related to values of
M = 0 m = -1 m =+ 1
59
There are 5 different d orbitals in each
D sublevel
60
Five different orientations of d correspond to values of
M = -2. M = -1 m = 0 m= 2 m= 1
61
There are 7 different f orbitals in each
F sublevel
62
The total number of orbitals in a main energy level increases with
The value of n
63
Number of orbitals at each main energy level equals the
Square of the principal quantum number n^2
64
The electron exists in one of two possible
Spin states which creates a magnetic field
65
To account for the magnetic properties of the electron theoreticians created the
Spin quantum number
66
The spin quantum number has only two values (+1/2, -1/2) which indicate
The two fundamental spin states of an electron in an orbital
67
A single orbital can hold a maximum of
Two electrons but the two electrons must have opposite spin states
68
Number of orbitals in sublevel
2l + 1
69
Number of electrons possible in sublevel
