LO1-13 + OOB-OOE Flashcards
Midterm Concepts
n
principle quantum number
- size & energy of atom (row number)
l
angular momentum quantum number
s has __ orbital(s); ___ electrons; n = __; l = ___.
1;2;1;0
p has ___ orbital(s); ___ electrons; n = __; l = ___.
3;6;2;1
d has ____ orbital(s); ___ electrons; n = __; l = ___.
5;10;3;2
f has ____ orbital(s); ___ electrons; n = __; l = ___.
7;14;4;3
Degenerate means
when orbitals within same subshell have the same energy; energetic equivalence
Core electrons are
all electrons except those with the highest n value
Paramagnetic
one of more unpaired electrons
Diamagnetic
no unpaired electrons
Isoelectronic
when atoms have the same electron configuration
Z eff
found in the units digit of column number
- net positive charge
- increases as you move right in the rows
Electronegativity
increases in uncle FONCL
Atomic radius
increases going left and down on PT
Ionization energy
minimum energy required to remove electrons
- exceptions with half-filled or completely filled subshells
Electron Affinity
energy change (released) when electrons are added
- positive
- increases going right up
number of columns away from the noble gas is the
number of bonds atoms want to make
Formal charge formula
valence electrons - # bonds - # lone electrons
CHIRAL
can’t be mirrored
ACHIRAL
can be mirrored
Relative size of ions is ____ for cations (_) because….
smaller; +
- because having less electrons means less electron repulsion, reducing the AR
Relative size of ions is ____ for anions (_) because….
larger; -
- because having more electrons increases electron repulsion, increasing the AR
H ea
enthalpy of electron attatchment
- energy change when electron is added
- negative
Lewis structures show:
bonds, atoms, electrons
Condensed structures show:
atoms - not bonds
Resonance structures
overall charge must remain the same
- can be equivalent and non-equivalent
Stability of Resonance Structures
- we want more spread out/balanced formal charge; avoid concentration of FC
- rather have negative FC on more electronegative atoms
Hybrid Structures
average of resonance structures
VSEPR
lone pairs repel
- 2x & 3x bonds take up more space
VSEPR - Linear electron geometry
180 degrees
2 electron regions
