Gen chem F Flashcards
I love how warm she is
- Energy needed to remove an electron from an atom or ion in its ground state.
- During the removal of electrons, one electron is removed from the atom at a time.
- Energy needed to remove the first valence electron from an atom is called the first ionization energy
Ionization energy
A model of the atom that derives from the Schrödinger wave equation and deals with probabilities. wave function: Give only the probability of finding an electron at a given point around the nucleus.
The quantum mechanic model
- Ability of an atom in a chemical bond to attract electrons toward itself and is usually measured in electron volt (ev).
- The higher the Ea, the greater the ability of an atom to pick up electrons
Electronegativity(EN)
- Also called azimuthal quantum number.
- Describes the shape of the orbital
- Orbitals have shapes that are best described as spherical (I = 0), dumb bell (I = 1), or cloverleaf (I = 2). They can even take on more complex shapes as the value of the ??? number becomes larger.
- Each value of / indicates a specific s, p, d, f subshell (each unique in shape.) The value of (/)is dependent on the principal quantum number.
Angular quantum number (/)
distance of the electron from the nucleus
principal
Consists of the s- and p-block elements.These elements are under Groups 1, 2, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18.
Representative elements (or main group elements)
- Described values of quantities of a quantum system* An important aspect of quantum mechanics is the quantization of observable quantities, which is possible through ??? since they are discrete set of integers and half-integers.
Quantum numbers
Energy level or shell
principal quantum number
- Composed of Representative Elements and Noble Gas Family.
*The name comes from the fact that these elements are unreactive towards other elements or compounds. (8 electrons in the outer shell) - It is called representative elements because the number of an element represents or is equal to the number of valence electron
Group A (IA-VIIA)
In 1926, said that electron is a wave and tries to describe the regions in space, or orbitals, where electrons are most likely to be found.
Erwin Schrodinger
The f-block elements that are in Period 6 are called, ??? (since these elements are found after lanthanum in the periodic table), while those in Period 7 are called ???, as they come after actinium
lanthanides and actinides
orientation of the electron spin
spin
Consists of elements arranged in order of increasing atomic number
Periodic table
increases from left to right across a period, and decreases from top to bottom within a group
electron affinity
- Refers to the change in energy when an atom in its ground state gains an electron forming an anion.
- Nonmetals always form an anion because they have high electron affinity.
Electron affinity
Elements belonging to the d-block are called ???. It consists of elements under Groups 3 to 12
transition elements
■ The electrons in an atoms have energy levels that can be described by four types of quantum numbers.
The four types of quantum numbers.
- Principal quantum number
- Angular quantum number
- Magnetic quantum number
- Electron spin quantum number
increases from left to right across a period, and decreases from top to bottom within a group
Electronegativity
Orbital must be filled in first by a single electron before pairing up
Hund’s Rule
*The periodic number of an element (horizontal arrangement) corresponds to the highest energy level occupied by an element’s electron.
* A horizontal row of elements.
* Have varying physical and chemical properties
PERIOD or SERIES
