Q

Bohr’s two postulates

A

Stationary states exist in which energy of electron is constant and characterized by circular orbit around nucleus. Energy of absorbs or emits only when electron moves states

Region of space defined by wave function

A

Atomic orbital

21
Q

Constructive wave effect on probability of finding electron in the region

A

Increases

22
Q

Destructive wave effect on probability of finding electron in region

A

Decreases

23
Q

Larger n means

A

Higher energy orbital

24
Q

Lower n means

A

More compact orbital

25
Q

All orbitals with a given n value are

A

In the same shell

26
Q

Orbitals with the same l value

A

Same subshell

27
Q

What does ml do

A

Distinguishes the individual orbitals

28
Q

Anticlockwise ms

A

+ 1/2

29
Q

Clockwise ms

A
  • 1/2
30
Q

Radial nodes occur when

A

Radial component passes through zero

31
Q

Number of type of node — with energy

A

Increases

32
Q

Calculate number of radial nodes

A

N - l - 1

33
Q

Radial nodes in 2s

A

1

34
Q

Radial nodes in 2p

A

None

35
Q

For any series of the same type of orbital, 1st has —- nodes, 2nd has —- etc

A

None, 1

36
Q

Orbital with quantum number of l has what number of nodal planes

A

L number

37
Q

Bohr radius

A

0.529 amps

38
Q

Why was Bohr abandoned

A

Only works on hydrogen and electrons are not discrete particles

39
Q

Wave functions can mean either electron is — OR electron is —

A

A discrete particle with relative probability of one point OR smeared distribution of negative charge with variations in density

40
Q

Electrons will enter different orbitals for how long

A

As long as possible

41
Q

2 electrons occupying different orbitals have

A

Parallel spins

42
Q

Parallel spin means

A

Same direction

43
Q

Most stable configuration has the largest number of unpaired electron spins

A

Hunds rule

44
Q

Paramagnetic

A

1+ unpaired electrons so molecule is attracted to magnetic field

45
Q

Diamagnetic

A

No unpaired electrons so there is weak repelling by magnetic field

46
Q

Why measure magnetism

A

Bc it allows us to detect presence and number of unpaired electrons

47
Q

Electronegativity determined by

A

Tendency of atoms to bind extra electrons and hold what it already has.

48
Q

The ability to attract electrons from bonded neighbors

A

Electronegativity

49
Q

Binding requires a

A

Net positive overlap of atomic orbitals
