Honors Chemistry Week-At-A-Glance
Goal: SC3 Atomic Structure https://sites.google.com/site/harrisonhighchemistrytarvin/
Monday
Essential Question: What’s wrong with Jimmy Neutron’s model of the atom?
Standard: SC3b: Use the orbital configuration of neutral atoms to explain its effect on the atom’s chemical properties. SC3f:
Relate light emissions and movement of electrons to the identification of the element.
Objectives:

Understand the arrangement of electrons in the atom (aufbau, Pauli, and Hund’s rules)

Describe the quantum mechanical model of the atom
