Electron Configuration Sub shells And Orbital Flashcards
1
Q
How do electron move around the nucleus
A
In quantum shells (energy levels )
2
Q
What does distance away from nucleus do to the energy levels
A
The shells further away from the nucleus have a higher energy
3
Q
How many electrons can all the subshells hold
A
S-2
P-6
D-10
F-14
4
Q
What shape is an s orbital and p orbital
A
S orbital-spherical
P orbital-dumbbell shape
5
Q
In what direction do electron move in orbital
A
They spin in opposite direction
6
Q
Is the 3d or 4s orbital filled out first and why
A
4s because it’s in a lower energy level to 3d
7
Q
What are the different blocks in the periodic table and what are the electron configuration
A
S block-s1,s2
P block- s2p6. ( the outer shell electron is in the p block
D block
