Q

What are 3 physical states of matter

A

Solid-rigid form of matter;definite shape and occupies fixed volume(at a particular T and p)
Liquid-fluid form of matter;occupies fixed volume(at part.T and p) but doesnt have fixed shape. It has well defined horizontal surface and takes shape of the container
Gas-fluid form of matter. It spreads out to fill the space containing it and takes up the shape of the container

Q

Rutherford’s model of an atom

A

Planetary model, he majority of mass is in nucleus(p+ and n0). Electrons revolve around nucleus in a fixed path(orbits). A volume occupied by the nucleus is very small compared to the volume occupied by the atom

Q

What is electromagnetic radiation

A

It is a form of energy consisting of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. Those oscillation travel through space at a speed of light. These types of EM radiation each have a characteristic wavelength
c=y(naopacke)v(frequency)

Q

What is EM spectar

A

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light(740nm-390nm), ultraviolet, x-rays , y-rays

23
Q

What are photons

A

Packets of quanta of radiation that are emmited or absorbed

24
Q

What is energy of the photon proportional to

A

To its frequency
E=hv
H=>planks constant

25
Q

What is atomic and continuous spectrum

A

In a continuous spectrum all frequencies are emmited while in atomic spectrum only discrete frequencies are emmited(the spectrum is different for each element)

26
Q

Bohr’s model

A

E- moves in a fixed orbit(like a planet around the sun). Energy associated with each orbit have a fixed value and electron can move from one orbut to another by emmiting or absorbing energy. E- can not lie between orbits

27
Q

L. De Broglie; wave particle duality

A

In some instances they act as waves and in some as particles. Wavelength is inversely proportional to the mss and the velocity of the matter
Y(flipped)=h/mu(velocity)
e- keep their energy and do not collapse because they behave as waves

28
Q

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle

A

We can not know e- certain position so we need to consider probabilities of the electrons being in certain volumes of space
It is not appropriate to imagine an electron in a definite orbit

29
Q

Schrodinger equation

A

Introduces:
•particle nature in terms of mass
•wave nature in terms of wavefunction ш which varies with position
Ш² is proportional to probability of finding e- withing a small volume of space

30
Q

What is electron density

A

Probability per unit volume

31
Q

Atomic orbital

A

Eegion of space around the nucleus where there is a highest pribability of finding the e-

32
Q

What are atomic orbitals characterized by

A

3 quantum numbers: n l ml
e- is characterized by forth quantum number ms(spin)

33
Q

What n

A

Principal quantum number which determines the total energy of atomic orbital. 1-infinity.
It defines distance from the nucleus
It also defines the orbital dimension( higher n=larger size of the orbital)
Orbitals with same n=same shell

34
Q

What is l

A

Secondary quantum number. It defines shape of atomic orbital.
0- (n-1)
s p d f….

35
Q

What is ml

A

Tells orientation of the orbital
-l to +l

36
Q

What is ms

A

Spin magnetic quantum number
-1/2 or +1/2

37
Q

What is characteristic of s orbital

A

Spherical shape

38
Q

Characteristic of p orbital

A

2 lobes seperated by nodal plane

39
Q

Characteristic of d orbital

A

4/5 orbitals have clover-leaf shape, they have 2 nodal planes
dz2 has 2 lobes on z axus and a ring around the center

40
Q

What does energy of the orbitals depend on

A

For H-on princioal quantum number
For many electron atoms its both principal and secondary quantum number

41
Q

What is aufbau principle

A

Building up the electronic structure of an atom by filling the lowest energy orbitals first(closest to nucleus)

42
Q

Pauli exclusion principle

A

No 2 e- in the same atom can have all 4 quantum numbers the same. Only 2 electrons can occupy the same orbital and they have to have different spin

43
Q

Hund’s rule

A

The ground state is the arrangment with the maximum number of parallel electrons

44
Q

What is a group and what is a period

A

In a group elements have same configuration in the outermost shell(valence electrons). While in the period elements have same principal quantum number n

45
Q

What are noble gases

A

They have the outermost shell(except He) (p-subshell) filled
Unreactive
Inert gases

46
Q

What is octet

A

s²p⁶ configuration which is very stable

47
Q

What is atomic radius

A

Half of the distance between the nuclei of neighbouring atoms in the pure element

48
Q

How does atomic radius varies?

A

Bigger the group–>smaller
Bigfer the period–>bigger
In ions:
Anions–>larger
Cation–>smaller

49
Q

Ionization energies

A

That is energy change when an e- is removed from an atom of the element in the gas phase
Higher the ionization–>more difficult to remove the e-
Every next ionozation energy is greater than the previous one

50
Q

How does ionization energy vary

A

It becomes lower in the group and higher in a period

51
Q

Electronic gain energy

A

Energy change that occurs when an electeon is attached to an atom in the gas phase. It can be enotermic or exothermic process for forst electron gain energy. For the second and higher its always endotermic process

52
Q

Electron affinity and how does it vary

A

Ea-energy released of attachment of an e- to an atom. Exothermic->+ values; endothermic–> -values
In a group- smaller
In a period- larger

53
Q

Electronegativity

A

Tendency of the atom to attracts e- to itself.
First ionization energy(EI1) and the electron affinity(Eea) are measure of the tendency of an atom to attract e-
X(electronegativity)=(E.I-A.E)/2
