Relative Masses of Atoms Atoms are too small to measure actual mass Compare masses of atoms using relative mass 20 An average Zn atom is ~ 3x more massive than an average Na atom
Medical Use of Isotopes I
Reading the Periodic Table Period: horizontal rowGroup: vertical column Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of outer shell e - 22 Each e - in an atom “sits” at an energy level (n)
Energy States Ground state: n = 1 Excited states: n = 2, 3, 4,… Photon emitted: Photon absorbed: 23
Energy Sublevels Each level consists of sublevels # of sublevels in each level = level number n = 1 n = 2 n = 3 n = 4 24 Increasing energy of sublevels within an energy level:
Disneyland Analogy 25
Orbitals Regions with the highest probability of finding an electron Each type of orbital has a given shape: 26 s orbital p orbitals
Orbitals 27 d orbitalsEach orbital can hold _____ electrons s orbitals: p orbitals: d orbitals:
Orbitals f orbitals int.ch.liv.ac.uk/Lanthanide/Ln_Chemistry_folder/ int.ch.liv.ac.uk/Lanthanide/Ln_Chemistry_folder/Miscellaneous%20folder/Miscellaneous.html#f_orbitals 28
How many sublevels are in the n = 3 energy level? What are these sublevels? How many of each type are there? How many electrons can be held in the n = 3 energy levels? 29 5-minute practice
Orbital Energy Levels Pauli Exclusion Principle: Electrons want to sit in lowest energy level For a given n value: Order of sublevel energy : s < p < d < f Orbital Diagrams 30
