7. normally electrons exist in the ground state, meaning they are as close to the nucleus as possible when an electron is excited by adding energy to an atom, the electron will absorb energy and "jump" to a higher energy level  heating a chemical with a Bunsen burner is enough energy to do this Jumping Electrons

9. after a short time, this electron will spontaneously "fall" back to a lower energy level, giving off a quantum of light energy called a photon the key to Bohr's theory was the fact that the electron could only "jump" and "fall" to precise energy levels, thus emitting a limited spectrum of light.  quantum is the amount of energy required to move an electron from one energy level to another

12. Quantum Numbers electrons display the properties of both waves and particles. think of an atom as a very bizarre house (like an inverted pyramid) with the nucleus living on the ground floor, and then various rooms (orbitals) on the higher floors occupied by the electrons electrons fill low energy orbitals (closer to the nucleus) before they fill higher energy ones

13. electron configuration is defined to be the arrangement and distribution of electrons in atomic orbitals  the electron configuration of each atom is made up of four quantum numbers or letters, which describe different properties of each electron and its orbital.  think of the 4 quantum numbers as the address of an electron… Country > State > City > Street

14. Where is an electron? What level/size? What shape? Orientation (x, y, z axis)? Spin? Quantum numbers give “the address” of the electron.

15. Principle quantum number (n) - describes the SIZE of the orbital or ENERGY LEVEL of the atom. Angular quantum number (l) - describes the SHAPE of the orbital. Magnetic quantum number (m) - describes an orbital's ORIENTATION in space. This tells the placement of the electrons in the sub-orbitals Spin quantum number (s) - describes the SPIN or direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) in which an electron spins.

16. QUANTUM NUMBERS The shape, size, and energy of each orbital is a function of 3 quantum numbers which describe the location of an electron within an atom or ion n (principal) ---> energy level l (orbital) ---> shape of orbital m l (magnetic) ---> designates a particular suborbital The fourth quantum number is not derived from the wave function s (spin) ---> spin of the electron (clockwise or counterclockwise: ½ or – ½)
