Rutherford Atom Review
• Alpha particle/Gold foil experiment
• Nuclear Atom
• Nucleus composed of protons & neutrons
• Nucleus small compared to atomic size
• Electrons account for rest of atom
• Unanswered questions:
• What are electrons doing? – How are they
arranged & how do they move?
• Thought electrons revolved around nucleus like
planets orbit the sun
• Couldn’t explain why electrons aren’t attracted to
protons causing atom to collapse

Energy and Light
• Electromagnetic Radiation
• Transmits energy
• Heat from light bulb
• Solar energy (energy from sun)
• Warmth from fireplace
• Many kinds: X-rays, microwaves, etc.
• Differ in their wave characteristics

Wave Properties
• Wavelength (λ): distance between two
consecutive wave peaks
• Frequency (ν): how many waves pass
a certain point per given time period
• Speed: how fast a given peak travels

Electromagnetic Radiation
• Travel as waves
• Have different wavelengths
• See page 325
• Gamma rays – shortest, radio waves – longest
• Important means of energy transfer
• Solar energy – visible & ultraviolet radiation
• Heat from fireplace – infrared radiation
• “Light” – wave that carries energy through space
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company
11-10
Electromagnetic radiation has particle
characteristics
• Photons: tiny packets of energy that
travel in a stream
• Wave-particle nature of light: consists
of both waves and particles of energy

Figure 11.6: Photons of red and blue light.
Different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation carry
different amounts of energy
In general – the longer the wavelength, the lower the energy
of the photons (red less energy than blue)

11-13
Emission of Energy by Atoms
• Recall Flame Test Laboratory (different
elements gave off different colors)
• Color resulted from atoms releasing energy
by emitting visible light of specific
wavelengths (specific colors)
• Atoms became excited: absorbed heat
energy from flame
• Some of excess energy released as light –
carried away by photon
• Energy of photon = energy change of atom
• Short wavelength = high-energy photons
• Long wavelength = low-energy photons

photons in the visible region.
Visible light photons emitted by Hydrogen – always the same
Because only certain photons are emitted, only certain energy
changes are occurring
Hydrogen atom has certain discrete energy levels
Energy levels of Hydrogen are quantized – only certain
values allowed

The Wave Mechanical Model of the Atom
• Louis Victor de Broglie & Erwin
Schrödinger: since light has both wave
and particle characteristics, an electron
might also exhibit these characteristics
• New hydrogen model applied to other
atoms (Bohr’s did not)
• Electron states are described by orbitals
(which are nothing like orbits)

Drawbacks of wave mechanical model:
• Gives no information about when the
electron occupies a certain point in
space or how it moves
• We will probably never know the details
of electron motion
• Confident that Bohr model is incorrect

The Hydrogen Orbitals
• Size defined as the sphere that contains 90%
of the total electron probability
• Spends 90% of its time somewhere within the
sphere
• Spends 10% of its time somewhere outside of the
sphere
• Electron can absorb energy & move to higher
energy state
• Bohr model – orbit with larger radius
• Wave mechanical model – different kinds of
orbitals with different shapes

Hydrogen Orbitals
• Why does hydrogen have more than
one orbital if it only has 1 electron?
• Orbital is potential space for an electron
• Can only occupy 1 orbital at a time, but can
be transferred to another by adding energy

Orbital summary
• As principle energy level increases, the
number of sublevels increases
•
•
•
•
n = 1 – 1 sublevel
n = 2 – 2 sublevels
n = 3 – 3 sublevels , etc.
Further from nucleus = more space = more room
for orbitals
• Sublevels are s (1 orbital), p (3 orbitals), d (5
orbitals), and f (7 orbitals)
• Orbitals keep same shape, but get larger as n
increases

Further Development of the Wave Mechanical
Model
• Applies to all atoms
• Helps explain the periodic table
• Electrons spin like a top – can only spin in
one of two directions
• Use arrows to represent spin (↑or↓)
• Electrons must have opposite spins to occupy
the same orbital
• Pauli exclusion principle: an atomic orbital
can hold a maximum of two electrons and
those two electrons must have opposite spins
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company
11-44
Principle components of wave mechanical model
• Atoms have principal energy levels (n)
• Energy of level increases as n increases
• Each principal energy level contains one or
more types of orbitals, called sublevels
• Number of sublevels present = n (p. 338)
• Label with n and shape (ex.: 3p)
• Orbital can have 0 to 2 electrons, 2 electrons in
same orbital must have opposite spins
• Shape of orbital indicates probabilities, not
electron movement

Electron Arrangements of First 18 Elements
Electrons will occupy orbitals closest to
nucleus first
As n increases, orbital becomes larger –
electron is further from nucleus
Electron configuration = electron
arrangement (Example: 1s22s1)
Abbreviate Na: 1s22s22p63s1 = [Ne]3s1
Orbital Diagram = Box Diagram: orbitals are
represented by boxes grouped by sublevel
with arrows indicating electrons

Valence Electrons
• Electrons in the outermost (highest) principal
energy level of an atom
• Most important electrons to chemists –
electrons involved when atoms form bonds
(attach to each other)
• Atoms in same group on periodic table have
same number of valence electrons in outer
orbital (orbitals are at different principal
energy levels)
• Core electrons
• Inner electrons
• Not involved in bonding

Orbital Filling
• If energy level has d orbitals, s orbitals
from next level will fill first
• After lanthanum – lanthanide series – fill
4f orbitals
• After actinium – actinide series – fill 5f
orbitals
• Except Helium – group number
indicates sum of electrons in outer s & p
orbitals (number of valence electrons)

Atomic Properties & the Periodic Table
• Chemistry is fundamentally based on
observed properties of substances
• Atomic theory is attempt to help us
understand why these things occur
• Theories may change

Figure 11.35: Classification of elements as
metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.

11-54
Metals, Nonmetals, & Metalloids
• Metals
• Lustrous appearance, change shape without
breaking (pulled into wire), excellent conductors
• Tend to lose electrons to form positive ions
• Nonmetals
• Lack properties of metals, some exceptions
• Tend to gain electrons to form negative ions
• Metalloids
• Have properties of metals and nonmetals
• Along stair step
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company
11-55
Not all metals/nonmetals behave exactly the
same way
• Metals
• As you go down group – more likely to lose
electrons (further from nucleus)
• Most chemically active – lower left corner
of periodic table
• Nonmetals
• Most chemically active in upper right
corner (not noble gases)
• Strongest attraction (closer to nucleus)

atoms.

Atomic Size
• Increases as you go down group: more
electrons = larger atom
• Decreases as you go across period:
more protons in nucleus – greater pull
on electron
Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company
11-58
Ionization Energy
• The energy required to remove an electron
from an individual atom in the gas phase
• Metals relatively low – easily lose electrons
(small amount of energy needed)
• Nonmetals relatively large – prefer to gain
electron, not lose
• Decreases going down a group, increases
going across a period
• Bottom left – lowest (most chemically active)
• Upper right – highest (most chemically active)
