CHAPTER 7 Quantum Theory and the Electronic Structure of Atoms Semester 2 / Quantum Numbers 7.7 Atomic Orbital 7.8 Electronic configuration (Refer lecture) 7.9 The building-up principle
Quantum Numbers Principal Q. No (n) n =1,2,3,4…… Distance of e - from the nucleus n=1K shell n=2L shell n=2M shell n=2N shell... Angular momentum Q.No (l) l=0 n-1 Shape of the “volume” of space that the e - occupies l Orbitalspdfgh Magnetic Q.No (m l ) m l = -l….0, + l Orientation of the orbital in space Electron Spin Q.No (m s ) m s = +
Example : 1 List values of n,l,m l in 2p sub shell 2p n l =1 i.e. n=2, l =1, m l = -1,0,1
EXAMPLE 2 TOTAL NUMBER OF ORBITALS ASSOCIATED WITH PRINCIPAL QUANTUM NO “2 ” n=2 l =0 m l =0 l =1 m l =1 m l =2 m l =3 1
EXAMPLE 3 List different ways to write four quantum Numbers that designate e - in A as orbital n=4, l=0, m l =0, m s = + n=4, l=0, m l =0, m s = -
7.7 Atomic Orbitals l = 0 (s orbitals) l = 1 (p orbitals)
l = 2 (d orbitals)
7.8 Electron Configuration Refer Chapter 2 Lecture notes
7.9 The building-up Principle Aufbau principle : As protons are added one by one to the Nucleus to build up the elements, electrons are similarly add to the atomic orbitals.
