Bohr’s Model The Line Spectra demonstrates that the energy levels of an electron in an atom are quantized Similar to the rungs of a ladder, nothing exist in between. (For Hydrogen (1 p+ & 1 e- ) 1st Energy Level n = 1 2nd & so on n = 2,3,4,5,6, … ∞ Only electrons dropping from a Higher Level to a Lower one emit EMR A Number of Possibilities for electron drops
Hydrogen’s Line Spectrum Several Series of lines are observed Electron Drops to the n = 1 Level Lyman Series (U.V. Range) Electron Drops to the n = 2 Level Balmer Series (Visible Range) Electron Drops to the n = 3 Level Paschen Series (Infrared Range)
The Lines become more closely spaced as the levels increase The Bohr model explained spectral lines but not how atoms bonded. Ultimately Displaced

Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle It is impossible to know exactly both the velocity & the position of a particle at the same time. Accuracy of V then Position
Classical Vs Quantum Classical adequately describes the motions of bodies much larger than the atoms of which they are composed. It appears that such a body loses energy in any amount Quantum describes the motions of subatomic particles and atoms as waves. These particles gain or lose energy in packages called quanta.

4.5 Rules Governing Electron Configurations Electron Configuration – arrangement of electrons in the atom Rules Aufbau Rule – electron occupies the lowest energy level that will receive it. Hund’s Rule – orbitals of equal energy each receive one electron (equal spin) before any receive two. Pauli’s Exclusion Principle – no two electrons can have the same set of 4 quantum numbers (n,l,m,s)

Exceptions to Aufbau All elements prefer a more stable configuration of electrons. Fully filled and ½ filled orbitals are more stable than others. Elements that are 1 shy of a full or ½ filled d orbital configuration will have electrons transfer from the s to the d to reach this stable state. Example if you have a 4s2 and 3d4 the actual configuration should be 4s1 and 3d5.
