INTRODUCTION
Modern Atomic View:
The world of the atom is madeup of waves and probability,
The speed and location are subject to uncertainity.
ELECTRON ORBITALS
Heisenberg Uncertainty PrincipleIt is impossible to know
withcertainity both the location and the velocity of an electron.
Bohr Diagrams
Diagrams are useful for counting electrons and illustrating different energy levels. Worthless as pictures of what atoms really look like.
This solar system model uses orbitsTo show where the electrons are.Electrons do not orbit the nucleus.
They live in regions of space calledOrbitals. Orbitals are organized by the energy level or shell that they belong to.They are clouds of probability.
An orbital is the shape of the region of space where an electronis most likely to be found.
This ball-shaped orbital is hydrogen.The dots represent possible positionsof the one electron hydrogen has.
Notice there are moredots near the center of sphere than near theedges.1s orbital
ANALOGY: Bird feeder on a pole with birds migrating south surrounding the feeder. Blue spots could be a birdat any given time. Spherical shape
SHAPES OF ORBITALS
• 2s orbital 2p orbital 3d orbital
Spherical double lobed complex
There are also f orbitals- very complex
ENERGY LEVELS
The more energy- the farther away the shell is from the nucleus
1st shell=one type of orbital= s2nd shell = two types = s,p etc….
Principal Quantum Number
• The energy levels or shells are distinguished by their number.
• This number is called the principal quantum number.
• Each energy level have specificNames. N1 =only 1s orbital N2 = 2s and 2p orbitals N3= 3s, 3p, and 3d

ELECTRON RULES
Aufbau Principle – from bottom upHund’s Rule – singles firstPauli Exclusion Principle – opposites only
From the Bottom Up: Rooms must be filled from the ground floor up. Fill the one room on the first floor before starting to put new tenants on the second floor. Then fill the s room before the p rooms. At higher floors the order might change a bit.
Aufbau Principle: the electrons fill the available orbitals from lowest energy to highest energy. In the ground state all the electrons are in the lowest possible energy level.
Singles First: the owner of the building wants to have the tenants spread out as much as possible. For that reason singles are placed in rooms before couples. If couples must be placedinto a room then all of the other rooms on that floor must already have a single in them.
Hund’s Rule: The electrons must beplaced into the orbitals in such a way that no pairs are put together unless absolutelynecessary. That is, single electrons must be placed into boxes first and then paired up if necessary.

Notice that 4s orbital fills Before the 3d orbital.
This is because 4s is actuallyslightly lower in energy than the 3d orbitals.
