All matter is composed of extremely small particles called
atoms. There are different kinds called elements.
Atoms of the same element are identical in size, mass, and
other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size,
mass, and other properties.
Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed.
Atoms of different elements combine in simple, whole
number ratios to form chemical compounds.
In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or
rearranged but never destroyed/created.
Law of Conservation of Mass
Total mass present before chemical reaction is same as
mass after chemical reaction
2H2O 2H2 + O2 If you have 10 grams of water to start, you
will get 1.12 g of hydrogen and 8.88 g of oxygen
Law of Constant Composition (definite proportions)
Relative numbers and kinds of atoms are constant
Water is 88.8% oxygen and 11.2% hydrogen by mass no
matter how much you have
Law of Multiple Proportions
If two elements combine to form more than one compound,
the masses of the two elements are in the ratio of small
whole numbers
CO2 versus CO (mass ratio is 2 to 1 for oxygen)

JJ
Thomson won the Nobel prize for
describing the electron as a particle
His son, George Thomson won the Nobel prize
for describing the wave-like nature of the
electron.
The
electron is
a particle!
The electron
is an energy
wave!
Much of what has been learned about atomic
structure has come from observing the
interaction of visible light and matter.
1924
De Broglie suggested that electrons have
wave properties to account for why their energy
was quantized.
He
reasoned that the electron in the hydrogen
atom was fixed in the space around the nucleus.
He
felt that the electron would best be
represented as a standing wave.
As
a standing wave, each electron’s path must
equal a whole number times the wavelength.
The electron propagates
through space as an energy
wave. To understand the
atom, one must understand
the behavior of
electromagnetic waves.
Louis deBroglie
Wavelength,
l
The distance for a wave to go through a
complete cycle.
Amplitude
Half of the vertical distance from the top to the
bottom of a wave.
Frequency,
n
The number of cycles that pass a point each
second.
Longer wavelength = lower frequency = lower energy
Shorter wavelength = higher frequency = higher energy
The
SI unit of frequency (n) is the hertz, Hz
1 Hz = 1 s-1
Wavelength
and frequency are related
c = ln
c is the speed of light, 2.998 x108 m/s
The wavelength of an argon laser's output is
488.0 nm. Calculate the frequency of this
wavelength of electromagnetic radiation.
c = ln
Convert nm to m
488 nm x (1 m / 109 nm) = 4.88 x 10-7 m
Then, substitute into c = λν
(4.88 x 10-7 m) (v) = 3.00 x 108 m s-1
v = 6.15 x 1014 s-1 = 6.15 x 1014 Hz
Electromagnetic
Energy in the form of transverse magnetic and
electric waves.
Electromagnetic
Spectrum
Contains all forms of electromagnetic radiation
Visible
Radiation
spectrum
Portion of electromagnetic spectrum that we can see
(colors)
‘White’
light is actually a blend of all visible
wavelengths. They can separated using a
prism.
Neils
Bohr studied the spectra produced when
atoms were excited in a gas discharge tube.
Each
element produces its own set of
characteristic lines
Bohr proposed a model of how electrons moved
around the nucleus.
He wanted to explain why electrons did not fall in
to the nucleus.
He also wanted to account for spectral lines being
observed.
He proposed that the energy of the electron was
quantized - only occurred as specific energy levels.
the Bohr model,
electrons can only
exist at specific
energy levels
(orbit).
Energy
In
Each
energy level
was assigned a
principal quantum
number, n.
The Bohr model is a
‘planetary’ type
model.
Each principal
quantum represents a
new ‘orbit’ or layer.
The nucleus is at the
center of the model.
Absorption – Electromagnetic radiation is absorbed by an
atom causing electrons to jump to a higher energy state
(excited state).
Emission – Energy is released by an atom as particle of
light (photon) as electrons fall back to the lower energy
state (ground state).
Depending on
frequency of photon,
different colored light
may be seen
Although
electromagnetic radiation has
definite wave properties, it also exhibits
particle properties.
Photoelectric

effect.
First observed by Hertz and then later explained
by Einstein.
When light falls on Group IA metals, electrons
are emitted (photoelectrons).
As the light gets brighter, more electrons are
emitted.
The energy of the emitted electrons depends on
the frequency of the light.
The
energy of a photon is proportional to the
frequency.
(Photon energy)
E= hn
The
energy is inversely proportional to the
wavelength (remember c = λν so v = c/λ ).
E = hc /l
h is Plank’s constant, 6.626 x 10-34 J . S
c is the speed of light, 2.998 x108 m/s
Determine
the energy, in kJ/mol of a photon of
blue-green light with a wavelength of 486 nm.

6.6 x 10-34 kg m2 s-1
(9.1 x 10-31 kg)(2.2 x 106 m s-1)
= 3.3 x 10-10 m
The speed of an electron had already been reported
by Bohr as 2.2 x 106 m s-1.
In order to observe an electron, one would need
to hit it with photons having a very short
wavelength.
Short wavelength photons would have a high
frequency and a great deal of energy.
If one were to hit an electron, it would cause
the motion and the speed of the electron to
change.
According to Heisenberg, it is impossible to
know both the position and the speed of an
object precisely.
Schrödinger
developed an equation to
describe the behavior and energies of
electrons in atoms.
His
equation is similar to one used to
describe electromagnetic waves.
Each
electron can be described in terms of
its quantum numbers.
Each electron in an atom has a
unique set of 4 “numbers” which
describe it
Energy level
Orbital shape
Orientation
Spin
Principal
quantum number, n
Tells the size of an orbital and largely
determines its energy.
n = 1, 2, 3, ……
Angular
momentum
The number of subshells that a principal level
contains. It tells the shape of the orbitals.
s
p
d
f
Orbitals
An orbital is a region within an energy level where there is a
probability of finding an electron
Orbital shapes are defined as the surface that contains
90% of the total electron probability.
Magnetic
quantum number, ml
Describes the direction that the orbital projects
in space.
Think in terms of axes “x, y, z”
Pauli
added one additional quantum number
that would allow only two electrons to be in
an orbital.
Spin
quantum number, ms.
An electron can spin clockwise or counterclockwise
Pauli
exclusion principle
Pauli proposed that no two electrons in an atom
can have the same set of four quantum numbers
Unless you live together, none of you have
the exact same address
Aufbau
Principle
Electrons are placed into orbitals, subshells, and
shells in order of increasing energy
Hund’s
Rule
The most stable arrangement of electrons in a
subshell is the one in which electrons have the
most number of parallel spins possible.
Graphical

configuration
One arrow represents one electron
Shows spin and which orbital within a
sublevel
Follow all rules(Aufbau principle, two
electrons in each orbital, etc. etc.)

atomic number as number of electrons in
an atom

Diamagnetism
Elements have all of their electrons spin paired
All of an element’s subshells are completed
Not affected by magnetic fields
Paramagnetism
Not all electrons are spin paired in an element
Most elements are this
Affected by magnetic fields

ion)

We
need electron configurations so that
we can determine the number of
electrons in the outermost energy level.
These are called valence electrons.

Orbitals
grouped in s, p, d, and f orbitals
(sharp, proximal, diffuse, and fundamental)
s orbitals
d orbitals
p orbitals
f orbitals
d and f orbitals require LARGE amounts of energy
It’s better (lower in energy) to skip a sublevel
that requires a large amount of energy (d and f
orbtials) for one in a higher level but lower
energy
A way of abbreviating long electron configurations
Since we are only concerned about the outermost
electrons, we can skip to places we know are
completely full (noble gases), and then finish the
configuration
Find the closest noble gas to the atom (or ion),
WITHOUT GOING OVER the number of electrons in the
atom (or ion). Write the noble gas in brackets [ ].
Step 2: Find where to resume by finding the next
energy level.
Step 3: Resume the configuration until it’s finished.
Example: [Ne] 3s2 3p5
Remember d and f orbitals require LARGE
amounts of energy
If we can’t fill these sublevels, then the next
best thing is to be HALF full (one electron in
each orbital in the sublevel)
There are many exceptions, but the most
common ones are
For the purposes of this class, we are going to
assume that ALL atoms (or ions) that end in d4 or
d9 are exceptions to the rule. This may or may
not be true, it just depends on the atom.
d4
is one electron short of being HALF full
In order to become more stable (require
less energy), one of the closest s
electrons will actually go into the d,
making it d5 instead of d4.
For example: Cr = [Ar] 4s2 3d4
Since this ends exactly with a d4 it is an
exception to the rule. Thus, Cr = [Ar] 4s1 3d5
Remember,
half full is good… and when an
s loses 1, it too becomes half full!
d9 works the same way
