1
Q
where is the S orbital
A
left hand side of the periodic table
2
Q
where is the D orbital
A
the middle of the periodic table ( transition metals ) ,
3
Q
where is the P orbital
A
the right hand side of the periodic table
4
Q
what shape is the s orbital
A
a sphere around the 3 axis
5
Q
what shape is the P orbital
A
dumbell shape on each axis
6
Q
what is special about 4s subshell
A
it fills and empties first
7
Q
example electronic configuration for Magnesium
A
1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2
8
Q
electrons in a box rules
A
- electrons pair with opposite spins
- fill all the boxes with one electron first then fill in the boxes extra
9
Q
what is shorthand notation of electron configuration
A
- start notation with the previous noble gas in a box
10
Q
ions with electronic configuaration
A
if positive , take off the previous electrons to balance the charge
- if negative , add on electron notation to match the charge
- remember that 4S fills and empties before 3D
