Electron Configurations
Electron configurations are shorthand ways of summarizing how electrons are situated around the nuclei of atoms. There are three basic rules to follow when determining the electron configurations of atoms: aufbau principle Pauli exclusion principle Hund’s rule.
7
Electron Configurations
When you’re filling an atom with electrons, where do you put them?
8
Aufbau Principle Rule 1: Each electron occupies the lowest energy level available.
9
Pauli Exclusion Principle
Rule 2: Only two electrons per orbital, and they must have opposite spins.
10
Hund’s Rule Rule 3: In each sublevel, first put one electron in each orbital, then go back and start putting a second electron in each.
11
Electron Configurations
Principal energy level The electron configuration notation designates Principal energy level Energy sublevel Superscript representing the number of electrons in the orbital 1s2 # of electrons in orbital sublevel

The Periodic Table & Electron Configurations
50
Sample Problems Divide page 137 in half. Title the top half “Electron Configuration Examples and the bottom half “Electron Configurations for Ions”
51
Electron Configuration Examples
Write the electron configurations for the following elements on the top of page 137. Phosphorus (atomic number = 15) Calcium (atomic number = 20) Strontium (atomic number = 38) 4. Lead (atomic number = 82)
52
Electron Configurations for Ions
Atoms can gain or lose one or more electrons to form ions. An ion is an atom (or group of atoms) that is electrically charged as a result of loss or gain of electrons.
53
Electron Configurations for Ions
An anion is a negatively charged ion. Lets look at the electron configuration for an anion: Cl 1s22s22p63s23p5 Cl- 1s22s22p63s23p6 A cation is a positively charged ion. Lets look at the electron configuration for a cation: Na 1s22s22p63s1 Na+ 1s22s22p6
54
Electron Configurations for Ions Examples
Write electron configurations for the following ions on the bottom of page 137. Cu+ Pb4+ O2- Br-
55
Orbital Diagram another way to show an atom’s electron configuration
Electrons in orbitals can be represented by arrows in boxes. Each box is labeled with the principal quantum number and sublevel associated with the orbital.
56
Sample Problems Divide page 139 in half. Title the top half “Orbital Diagram Examples” and the bottom half “Noble Gas Shorthand Examples”
57
Orbital Diagram Examples
Draw the orbital diagram associated with each of the following elements on the top of page 139. Phosphorus: 1s22s22p63s23p3 Calcium: 1s22s22p63s23p64s2 Strontium: 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s2 4. Lead:1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d105p66s24f14 5d106p2
58
Noble Gas Notation Noble gases are the elements in the last column of the periodic table. Noble gases have eight electrons in their outermost orbital and they are very stable (non-reactive).
59
Noble Gas Notation Noble-gas notation is a method of representing electron configurations of noble gases. The noble-gas notation uses bracketed symbols. [He] helium [Ne] neon
60
Noble-Gas Notation Compare the electron configuration for neon with sodium’s configuration: Ne: 1s22s22p6 Na: 1s22s22p63s1 Using noble-gas notation, an element’s electron configuration can be shortened. [Ne]3s1
61
Practice Problem #3 Write the electron configurations for the following elements using noble gas shorthand at the bottom of page 139. Phosphorus (P) Calcium (Ca) Strontium (Sr) Lead (Pb)
62
Summary The arrangement of electrons in an atom is called the atom’s electron configuration. Electron configurations are defined by the aufbau principle, the Pauli exclusion principle, and Hund’s rule. Electron configurations can be represented using orbital diagrams and electron configuration notation.
