Test 3 Flashcards
4th quantum spin(s)
Electron is a spinning charge, can either spin up or down. Represented by either +1/2 or -1/2
Auf bau principal
lowest energy occupied first
Polyexclusion principal
each electron has a unique set of quantum numbers
Hund’s principal
parallel spins in different boxes before pairing up to minimize C-e repulsion
Magnetic properties
-related to unpaired electrons
Diamagnetic
Unaffected by magnetic field, all electrons paired
Paramagnetic
Attracted by magnetic field, has unpaired electrons
Electron configuration of Ions
Cations loose e
Highest n always looses first
If more than one highest n highest l lost first
Electron configuration of Anions
gain e to get to noble gas configuration
add e as usual
Valence electrons
part of s and p orbitals and non filled f and d orbitals
non valence electrons
filled d and f orbitals are not valence electrons
Electron configuration of Cr
[Ar}4s^13d^5
Electron configuration of Cu
[Ar] 4s^13d^10
Effective nuclear charge
“charge” felt by other electrons. Ability to pull in electrons
How to calculate Zeff
Z(# of protons) - S(screening electrons closer to the nucleus)
Periodic table ->(Zeff)
Zeff increases as #of protons increases, but not the # of screening electrons
Periodic Table goes down(Zeff)
Zeff is constant
Periodic trends in atomic size
n and Zeff
As n increases, radius increases (PT goes down)
As Zeff increases, radius decreases (PT ->)
Size of transition elements
their sizes do not change much
Size of atoms vs cations
Cations(+) < atoms
Because Zeff increases
Size of atoms vs anions
Anions(-) > atoms
Because Zeff decreases
Trends in first ionization energies
closer is harder to ionize and vice versa. As Zeff increases leads to harder removal. As n increases, becomes easier to remove.
2nd and higher ionization energie
I1 < I2 < I3 < …
Ionic bonding
A cation and an Anion
electrons are given
Covalent bond
Generally non-metal + non-metal
electron sharing
Metallic bonding
electrons are mobile in what is called an “electron sea”
conductors
