3. Diagonal Rule zThe diagonal rule is a memory device that helps you remember the order of the filling of the orbitals from lowest energy to highest energy zAufbau principle states that electrons fill from the lowest possible energy to the highest energy

Diagonal Rule ysysysys ysysysys 3p 3d ysysysys 2p ysysysys 4p 4d 4f ysysysys 5p 5d 5f 5g? ysysysys 6p 6d 6f 6g? 6h? ysysysys 7p 7d 7f 7g? 7h? 7i? 1234567123456712345671234567 ySteps: 1.Write the energy levels top to bottom. 2.Write the orbitals in s, p, d, f order. Write the same number of orbitals as the energy level. 3.Draw diagonal lines from the top right to the bottom left. 4.To get the correct order, follow the arrows! yBy this point, we are past the current periodic table so we can stop.

5. Why are d and f orbitals always in lower energy levels? zd and f orbitals require LARGE amounts of energy zIt’s better (lower in energy) to skip a sublevel that requires a large amount of energy (d and f orbitals) for one in a higher level but lower energy This is the reason for the diagonal rule! BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE ARROWS IN ORDER!

27. Keep an Eye On Those Ions! zElectrons are lost or gained like they always are with ions… negative ions have gained electrons, positive ions have lost electrons zThe electrons that are lost or gained should be added/removed from the outermost energy level (not the highest orbital in energy!)
