Q

when an e- is added to a subshell, it will always occupy an empty orbital if one is available. e-(s) ALWAYS occupy orbitals singly if possible and pair up only if no empty orbitals are available

Q

down a group IE ________

A

decreases; shells of e- are added, inner shells shields the distant ones, reducing pull; p+ being added but shielding cancels the p+

17
Q

why is the second IE greater than the first?

A

e- removed causes repulsion to decrease and increase attractiveness of p+ to valence e-

18
Q

as e- are being removed, IE increases 1. _______ until the shell is 2. _____, then makes a 3. _____ jump

A
  1. gradually
  2. empty
  3. big
19
Q

when the valence shell is empty, the next e- must come from a shell much _____ to the nucleus; IE is larger than the previous one

A

closer

20
Q

refers to how strongly the nucleus of an atom attracts the e-(s) of other atoms in a bond

A

electronegativity

21
Q

electronegativity is affected by 2 factors

a) the 1. ______ the atom, the more effectively its 2. ______ _______ will be felt past its outer energy level
b) the 3. _______ the atom is to having 4. ___ energy level the more likely it is to 5. ________ the necessary e- to complete that level

A
  1. smaller
  2. nuclear charge
  3. closer
  4. full
  5. attract
22
Q

left to right across a periodic table, EN ______

A

increases

23
Q

down a group, EN _______

A

decreases

24
Q

the amount of energy that an e- has depends on its distance from the atom

A

coulomb’s law

25
Q

the greater the charge of an atom, the more energy it will have (e- have the same amount of charge)

A

basically coulombic potential energy is considered to be at 0 for a distance infinity, PE of 1s (more negative) brings the CPE to zero unlike 3s

26
Q

for an e- to move from an energy level close to the nucleus to an energy level far from it needs to ______ energy (takes energy)

A

gain

27
Q

for an e- to move from an energy level far away from the nucleus to an energy level close to it needs to ______ energy (easy to do)

A

lose

28
Q

why can’t a single atom of hydrogen produce all four spectral lines simultaneously

A

a single atom of hydrogen cannot jump b/c it can’t get to the rest. it can only jump once and show one color
