Electron Configuration Flashcards
The scheme used to locate electrons.
Electron configuration
A notation used to represent how electrons are distributed in different energy levels and orbitals of an atom. It consists of sub shells, and the number of electrons found in those subshells..
Electron Configuration
When electrons are at their lowest energy states, the corresponding electron configuration is referred to as?
Ground–state electron configuration
German word for construction or building up.
Aufbau
Known as the (n + l ) rule
Klechkowsky Rule
Shorthand notation for writing electron configuration
Noble-gas-core#abbreviated electron configuration
Inner electrons
Core
Outer most electrons
Valence
Write most column of the periodic table.
Noble gases
A number of elements are found to have electron configuration deviating from the expected
Anomalous Cases
This phenomenon is attributed to the stability of how filled 3-D sub shell. immigration of a 4S electron is possible as distributor is somewhat closes to that of the third orbital.
Anomalous Cases
This are found to have anonymous electron configurations.
Inner transitions elements
They are found in orbitals with the highest energy level. This are the electrons involve in the formation of the chemical bonds.
