Electron Spin ExperimentElectron Spin Experiment

Electron SpinElectron Spinexperiments by Stern and Gerlach showed a

beam of silver atoms is split in two by a magnetic field

the experiment reveals that the electrons spin on their axis

as they spin, they generate a magnetic field◦ spinning charged particles generate a

magnetic field if there is an even number of electrons, about

half the atoms will have a net magnetic field pointing “North” and the other half will have a net magnetic field pointing “South”

Spin Quantum Number, Spin Quantum Number, mmssspin quantum number describes how the

electron spins on its axis◦ clockwise or counterclockwise◦ spin up or spin down

spins must cancel in an orbital◦paired

ms can have values of ±½

Pauli Exclusion PrinciplePauli Exclusion Principle no two electrons in an atom may have the same set of 4

quantum numbers therefore no orbital may have more than 2 electrons,

and they must have with opposite spins knowing the number orbitals in a sublevel allows us to

determine the maximum number of electrons in the sublevels sublevel has 1 orbital, therefore it can hold 2

electronsp sublevel has 3 orbitals, therefore it can hold 6

electronsd sublevel has 5 orbitals, therefore it can hold 10

electronsf sublevel has 7 orbitals, therefore it can hold 14

Quantum Numbers of Quantum Numbers of Helium’s ElectronsHelium’s Electronshelium has two electrons both electrons are in the first energy levelboth electrons are in the s orbital of the first

energy levelsince they are in the same orbital, they must

have opposite spins

Electron Configurations the ground state of the electron is the lowest

energy orbital it can occupy the distribution of electrons into the various orbitals

in an atom in its ground state is called its electron configuration

the number designates the principal energy level the letter designates the sublevel and type of orbital the superscript designates the number of electrons

in that sublevel He = 1s2

Orbital DiagramsOrbital Diagrams

we often represent an orbital as a square and the electrons in that orbital as arrows◦the direction of the arrow represents the

spin of the electron

Sublevel Splitting in Sublevel Splitting in Multielectron AtomsMultielectron Atoms the sublevels in each

principal energy level of Hydrogen all have the same energy – we call orbitals with the same energy degenerate◦ or other single

electron systems for multielectron atoms,

the energies of the sublevels are split◦ caused by electron-

electron repulsion the lower the value of

the l quantum number, the less energy the sublevel has◦ s (l = 0) < p (l = 1) <

d (l = 2) < f (l = 3)

Penetrating and ShieldingPenetrating and Shielding the radial distribution function

shows that the 2s orbital penetrates more deeply into the 1s orbital than does the 2p

the weaker penetration of the 2p sublevel means that electrons in the 2p sublevel experience more repulsive force, they are more shielded from the attractive force of the nucleus

the deeper penetration of the 2s electrons means electrons in the 2s sublevel experience a greater attractive force to the nucleus and are not shielded as effectively

the result is that the electrons in the 2s sublevel are lower in energy than the electrons in the 2p

Notice the following:1. because of penetration, sublevels

within an energy level are not degenerate

2. penetration of the 4th and higher energy levels is so strong that their s sublevel is lower in energy than the d sublevel of the previous energy level

3. the energy difference between levels becomes smaller for higher energy levels

Filling the Orbitals with Filling the Orbitals with ElectronsElectronsenergy shells fill from lowest energy to highsubshells fill from lowest energy to high◦ s → p → d → f◦Aufbau Principle

orbitals that are in the same subshell have the same energy

no more than 2 electrons per orbital◦Pauli Exclusion Principle

when filling orbitals that have the same energy, place one electron in each before completing pairs◦Hund’s Rule

Valence ElectronsValence Electrons the electrons in all the

subshells with the highest principal energy shell are called the valence electrons

electrons in lower energy shells are called core electrons

chemists have observed that one of the most important factors in the way an atom behaves, both chemically and physically, is the number of valence electrons

Trend in Atomic Radius – Main Trend in Atomic Radius – Main GroupGroup

Different methods for measuring the radius of an atom, and they give slightly different trends◦ van der Waals radius = nonbonding◦ covalent radius = bonding radius◦ atomic radius is an average radius of an

atom based on measuring large numbers of elements and compounds

Atomic Radius Increases down group◦ valence shell farther from nucleus◦ effective nuclear charge fairly close

Atomic Radius Decreases across period (left to right)◦ adding electrons to same valence shell◦ effective nuclear charge increases◦ valence shell held closer

Effective Nuclear ChargeEffective Nuclear Charge in a multi-electron system, electrons are

simultaneously attracted to the nucleus and repelled by each other

outer electrons are shielded from full strength of nucleus◦ screening effect

effective nuclear charge is net positive charge that is attracting a particular electron

Z is nuclear charge, S is electrons in lower energy levels◦ electrons in same energy level contribute to

screening, but very little◦ effective nuclear charge on sublevels trend, s > p >

Zeffective = Z - S

Screening & Effective Screening & Effective Nuclear ChargeNuclear Charge

Trends in Atomic Radius Transition Trends in Atomic Radius Transition MetalsMetals increase in size down the Group atomic radii of transition metals roughly the same size

across the d block◦ must less difference than across main group elements◦ valence shell ns2, not the d electrons◦ effective nuclear charge on the ns2 electrons

approximately the same

Ionization Energyminimum energy needed to remove an

electron from an atom ◦gas state◦ endothermic process◦ valence electron easiest to remove

◦M(g) + IE1 M1+(g) + 1 e-

◦M+1(g) + IE2 M2+(g) + 1 e-

first ionization energy = energy to remove electron from neutral atom; 2nd IE = energy to remove from +1 ion; etc.

General Trends in 1General Trends in 1stst Ionization Ionization EnergyEnergy

larger the effective nuclear charge on the electron, the more energy it takes to remove it

the farther the most probable distance the electron is from the nucleus, the less energy it takes to remove it

1st IE decreases down the group◦ valence electron farther from nucleus

1st IE generally increases across the period◦ effective nuclear charge increases

Trends in Ionic RadiusTrends in Ionic Radius Ions in same group have same charge Ion size increases down the group

◦ higher valence shell, larger Cations smaller than neutral atom; Anions bigger than

neutral atom Cations smaller than anions

◦ except Rb+1 & Cs+1 bigger or same size as F-1 and O-2 Larger positive charge = smaller cation

◦ for isoelectronic species◦ isoelectronic = same electron configuration

Larger negative charge = larger anion ◦ for isoelectronic series

valence shell for transition metals electrons, may be removed from

the sublevel closest to the valence shell

Trends in Successive Ionization Trends in Successive Ionization EnergiesEnergies removal of each successive

electron costs more energy◦ shrinkage in size due to

having more protons than electrons

◦ outer electrons closer to the nucleus, therefore harder to remove

regular increase in energy for each successive valence electron

large increase in energy when start removing core electrons

Trends in Electron AffinityTrends in Electron Affinity energy released when an neutral atom gains an

electron◦ gas state◦ M(g) + 1e- M-1(g) + EA

defined as exothermic (-), but may actually be endothermic (+)◦ alkali earth metals & noble gases endothermic, WHY?

more energy released (more -); the larger the EA generally increases across period

◦ becomes more negative from left to right◦ not absolute◦ lowest EA in period = alkali earth metal or noble gas◦ highest EA in period = halogen
