Chapter 1-EL3 Flashcards
Electrons
What is the principle quantum number for the first 4 shells?
n=1, n=2, n=3, n=4
What happens as the number of n gets higher?
The further the shell is from the nucleus and the higher the energy associated with the shell
What are the 4 sub-shells?
s, p, d and f

14
Which sub shells are filled in n=1?
One s sub-shell
Which sub shells are filled in n=2?
One s sub-shell and one p sub-shell
Which sub shells are filled in n=3?
One s sub-shell and one p sub-shell and one d sub-shell
Which sub shells are filled in n=4?
One s sub-shell and one p sub-shell and one d sub-shell and one f sub-shell
Which sub-shells overlap?
4s and 3d
Name the first 10 sub-shells in order of they are filled
1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 4d 4f
