Chapter 5 Flashcards
Each orbit represents a
Fixed energy level
Quantum
Amount of energy required to move an electron from one energy level to another
Quantum mechanical model
Mathematical model that helps you predict where the electrons are most likely at
S orbital holds
2 electrons
P orbital holds
6
D orbital holds
10
F orbital holds
14
Electrons will fill lowest energy orbitals first
Aufball principal
Every orbital can hold 2 electrons if 2 electrons are present they must have opposing spins
Pauli exclusion principle
Prefers one electron in each orbital before paring electrons. Prefers being full or half full
Hunds rule
Exceptions
D-4
D-9
Electrons can be found in specific orbits around the nucleus
Bohr Model
Aufball principle
Electrons will fill lowest energy orbitals first
Pauli exclusion principe
Every orbital can hold 2 electrons. If 2 electrons are present they must have opposing spins
Hunds rule
Prefers one electron in each orbital before paring electrons. Prefers full or half full
