Our goal:• Understand why some substances behave as they do.• For example: Why are K and Na reactive metals? Why do
H and Cl combine to make HCl? Why are some compounds molecular rather than ionic?
Atom interact through their outer parts, their electrons.
The arrangement of electrons in atoms are referred to as their electronic structure.
Electron structure relates to:• Number of electrons an atom possess.
• Where they are located.• What energies they possess.

Study of light emitted or absorbed by substances has lead to the understanding of the electronic structure of atoms.
Light made up of electromagnetic (E.M) radiation
Characteristics of light: • All waves have a characteristic wavelength, λ, and amplitude, A.
• The frequency, ν, of a wave is the number of cycles which pass a point in one second. Measured in hertz , 1 hertz = 1 cycle/second
• The speed of a wave, v, is given by its frequency multiplied by its wavelength: λ α (1/ ν) λ ν = constant (c)
c = λ ν c : speed of light = 3 x 108 m/s

• Modern atomic theory arose out of studies of the interaction of radiation with matter.
• Electromagnetic (E.M.) radiation moves through a vacuum with a speed of 2.99792458 × 108 m/s.
• There are many kind of E.M. radiation with different wavelengths and frequencies shown in the following figure.
• Visible radiation is the only part our eye can detect. It has wavelengths between 400 nm (violet) and 750 nm (red).

Example(1):
What is the wavelength of light with a frequency 5.89 x 105 Hz.
Example (2):
What is the frequency of blue light with a wavelength of 484 nm?
λ =cν = 3 x 108 m/s
5.89 x 105 s-1 = 509 m (Radio wave)
ν =cλ = 3 x 108 m/s
484 x 10-9 m = 6.2 x 1014 s-1 or Hz

In 1990 Matter and energy were seen as different from each other in fundamental ways
Matter: � consist of particles� Particles have a mass � Its position in space can be specified.
Energy: � could come in waves, with any frequency.� Massless and delocalized.� Their position in space could not be specified.
It was assumed that there was no intermingling of matter and light
The Nature of Matter The Nature of Matter

At the beginning of 20 century, certain experimental results suggested that this picture was incorrectThe first important advance came from Max Planck, he found that the cooling of hot objects couldn’t be explained by viewing energy as a wave.Plank found that the results could not be explain in term of the physics of his day (matter absorb or emit any quantity of energy) .Plank account for these observation by postulating that:The energy can be gained or lost only in whole-number multiple of the quantity hhνν
∆ ∆ E = nhE = nhνν where n is an integer (1, 2, where n is an integer (1, 2, 3…).3…).
h : is Planck’s constant = 6.626 x 10h : is Planck’s constant = 6.626 x 10 -34-34 J s J sIt seemed clear that energy is It seemed clear that energy is quantizedquantized and can occur in discrete and can occur in discrete unit of sizeunit of size hhνν , these packets of energy (h , these packets of energy (hνν) are called ) are called quantum.quantum.A system can transfer energy only in whole quanta.
Thus energy seems to have particulate properties
10
The next development came when Einstein proposed that E.M. radiation is itself quantized.
He suggested that E.M. radiation can be viewed as a stream of “particles” called photons
Each photon has energy Ephoton = hν = hc/λ
Combine this with E = mc2 (Einstein equation)
m = E /c2 m =
you get the apparent mass of a photon
m = h / (λc)
Does a photon really have a mass? The answer appears to be yes.
However, it is clear that photons do not have mass in the classical sense. A photon has mass only in relativistic sense – it has no rest mass.
hc/λc2
11
We can summarize the important conclusions from the work of Plank and Einstien as follows: Energy is quantized, it can occur only in discrete unit called quanta. E.M. radiation, which was previously thought to exhibit only wave properties, seems to show certain characteristics of particulate matter as well.
This phenomenon is referred to as the dual nature of light
Is the opposite is true? That is, does matter exhibit wave properties.
de Brolie supplied the answer to this question.
m = h /(λc) for a particle with velocity v
m = h /(λv) λ = h/(mv)
This equation, called de Brolie equation, allow us to calculate the wave lenghth of particle
12
Example:The laser light of a CD is 7.80 x 102 m. calculate
A) What is the frequency of this light?
B) What is the energy of a photon of this light?
C)What is the apparent mass of a photon of this light?
A) ν = c/λ ν = 3 x 108(m/s)/ 7.80x102 m = 3.85 x 105s-1
B) Ephoton = hν
Ephoton = 6.626 x 10-34 J s x 3.85 x 105s-1
Ephoton = 2.55 x 10-28 J
C) m = h / (λc)
m = 6.626 x 10-34 J s /7.80x102 m x 3x108(m/s)
m = 2.83x10-45 Js2/m2 = 2.83x10-45(kg m2/s2) s2/m2
m = 2.83x10-45kg
13
Example:
What is the wavelength of an electron with a mass of
9.11 x 10-31 kg traveling at 1.0 x 107 m/s?
m = h / (λc)
λ = h /mc
λ = 6.626 x 10-34 J s
9.11 x 10-31 kg x 1.0 x 107 m/s = 7.2 x 10-11 m

The atomic spectrum of hydrogenThe atomic spectrum of hydrogen
Another important experiment was the study of the emission light by excited H-atoms. When hydrogen gas receives high-energy spark, H2 molecules absorb energy, some of H-H bonds are broken. The resulting H-atoms are excited; that is they contain excess energy which they release by emitting light of various wavelength to produce what is called the emission spectrum of H-atoms.
To understand the significance of H-emission spectrum, we must describe the continuous spectrum that results when white light is passed through a prism,
15
continuous spectrum� Contain all the wavelength of visible (white) light.� All the colors are possible.� Like the rainbow.
When H-emission spectrum in visible region is passed through prism, only a few lines can be seen, each correspond to a discrete wavelength. The H-emission spectrum is called line spectrum.

What is the significance of line spectrum of hydrogen?� It indicate only certain energies are allowed for the
hydrogen atom.� Energy of electron H-is quantized � Only certain energies are possible.� Use ∆E = hν = hc / λ
19
BohrBohr Model ModelHe developed the quantum model of the hydrogen atom.� He proposed that the atom was like a solar system, the
electron in H-atom move around the nucleus only in certain allowed circular orbit
� The electrons were attracted to the nucleus because of opposite charges.
� Didn’t fall in to the nucleus because it was moving around
20
� He didn’t know why but only certain energies were allowed.
� He called these allowed energies: energy levels.� Putting energy into the atom moved the electron away
from the nucleus from ground state to excited state.� When it returns to ground state it gives off light of a
certain energy� The energy levels for H-atom are shown in the following
figure.

� for each energy level the energy is:
E = -2.178 x 10-18 J (Z2 / n2 )
n: is the energy level� Z: is the nuclear charge, which is +1 for hydrogen.� n = 1 is called the ground state� when the electron is removed from the atom, n = ∞� When the electron moves from one energy level to
another.
� ∆E = Efinal - Einitial
� ∆E = -2.178 x 10-18 J Z2 (1/ nf2 - 1/ ni

Example:
Calculate the energy need to move an electron from its ground state to the third energy level.
∆E = -2.178 x 10-18 J Z2 (1/ nf2 - 1/ ni

∆E = -2.178 x 10-18 J (+1)2 (1/9 – 1/1)
∆E = +1.936 x 10-18 J (+ mean energy absorbed)
Example:
Calculate the energy released when an electron moves from n= 4 to n=2 in a hydrogen atom.
∆E = -2.178 x 10-18 J (+1)2 (1/4 – 1/16)
∆E = - 5.2125 x 10-19 J
24
Example:
Calculate the energy required to remove the electron from hydrogen atom in its ground state.
∆E = -2.178 x 10-18 J (+1)2 (1/∞ – 1/1)
∆E = 2.178 x 10-18 J
25
Bohr model:� Only works for hydrogen atoms and other monoelectronic
species.� electrons don’t move in circles� the quantization of energy is right, but not because they
are circling like planets.
The negative sign of the energy level :� increase the energy of the electron when you make it
further to the nucleus.� the maximum energy an electron can have is zero, at an
infinite distance (n = ∞ ).
26
The Quantum Mechanical Model of the atomThe Quantum Mechanical Model of the atom
A totally new approach was needed.
Three physicists were at the forefront of this effort: Heisenberg, de Broglie, and Schrödinger. The approach they developed known as wave mechanics or quantum mechanics
� De Broglie said matter could be like a wave.� Schrödinger proposed an equation that contains both
wave and particle terms.� Much math, but what is important are the solutions.� Solving the equation leads to wave functions.
27
• The wave function is a F(x, y, z) Actually F(r,θ,φ)
• Solutions to the equation are called orbitals (not Bohr orbits).
• Each solution is tied to a certain energy level.
• The wave function gives the shape of the electronic orbital.
• The square of the wave function, gives the probability of finding the electron, that is, gives the electron density for the atom.
• There is a limit to what we can know from Schrödinger equation.
• We can’t know how the electron is moving or how it gets from one energy level to another.
Electron Density Distribution
•Probability of finding an electron in a
hydrogen atom in its ground state.

Quantum NumbersQuantum Numbers
There are many solutions to Schrödinger’s equation
Each solution can be described with quantum numbers that describe some aspect of the solution.
� Principal quantum number (n):
has an integral value: 1, 2, 3, ……, it is related to the size and energy of an orbital.
As (n) increase: orbital become larger, electron spends more time farther
from the nucleus higher energy, because the electron is less tightly bound
to nucleus, energy is less negative.
30
� Angular momentum quantum number (ℓ): has integer values from 0 to n-1 for each value of n It is related to the shape of the orbital (as shown in the
following figures the value of (ℓ) for a particular orbital is commonly
assigned a letter: ℓ = 0 is called s , ℓ = 1 is called p
ℓ =2 is called d , ℓ =3 is called ƒ , ℓ =4 is called g
� Magnetic quantum number (m ℓ):
– integer values between - ℓ and + ℓ including zero.
– The value of mℓ is related to the orientation of the orbital in space relative to the other orbitals in the atom.
31
s-orbitalsAll s-orbitals are spherical.

32
P orbitals
There are three p-orbitals px, py, and pz.
The three p-orbitals lie along the x-, y- and z- axes of a Cartesian system.
The letters correspond to allowed values of mℓ of -1, 0,an +1.
Electron-distribution of a 2p orbital.
d-orbitals
34
f-orbitals
35
� Electron spin quantum number (m s):
the electron has a magnetic moment with two possible when the atom placed in an external magnetic field– Can have 2 values , either +1/2 or -1/2
36
For our purpose, the main significance of electron spin is connected with the postulate of Pauli: in a given atom no two electrons can have the same set of four quantum numbers (n , ℓ, m ℓ, and ms ), this is called Pauli exclusion principle. Since electrons in the same orbital have the same value of n , ℓ, m ℓ , they must have different values of ms .
Then, since only two value of ms are allowed, an orbital can hold only two electrons, and they must have opposite spin.

� Didn’t know much about atom.� Put atoms in columns by similar properties.� Predicted properties of missing elements.
41
Aufbau Principle and the periodic tableAufbau Principle and the periodic tableOur main assumption is that the atoms have the same type of orbitals as have been described from the hydrogen atom.
As protons are added one by one to the nucleus to build up the elements, electrons are similarly added to these H-like orbitals. This is called aufbau principle
H has one electron, occupy the 1s orbital
The configuration for H can be represent as:
H: 1s1
Helium has two electron

At this point it is useful to introduce the following concepts: � Valence electrons- the electrons in the outermost principle
quantum level of an atom (not d).� Core electrons- the inner electrons� Hund’s Rule- The lowest energy configuration for an atom
is the one have the maximum number of unpaired electrons in the orbital.

• Groups 3B - 2B (3 - 12) have the d-orbital filled.• The lanthanides and actinides have the f-orbital filled.

� Elements in the same column have the same electron configuration.
� Put in columns because of similar properties.� Similar properties because of electron configuration.� Noble gases have filled energy levels.� Transition metals are filling the d orbitals
51
Periodic TrendsPeriodic Trends in atomic propertiesin atomic properties� Ionization energy (I.E.):
Ionization energy the energy required to remove an electron form a gaseous atom or ion in its ground state.
X(g) → X+(g) + e
We will consider the energy required to remove several electrons from Al in the ground state.
Al(g) → Al+(g) + e I1 = 580 kJ/mol
Al+(g) → Al+2
(g) + e I2 = 1815 kJ/mol
Al+2(g) → Al+3
(g) + e I3 = 2740 kJ/mol
Al+3(g) → Al+4
(g) + e I4 = 11600 kJ/mol
52
Several points can be illustrated from these results:Highest energy electron (the one bound least tightly) that is removed first.The first ionization energy I1 is the energy required to remove the first electron (highest-energy electron) The value of I1 is considerably smaller than the value of I2 (second ionization energy). The primary factor is simply charge, electron is removed from +1 ion (Al+) .The increase in positive charge bind the electron more firmly, and the ionization energy increases. The same trend shows up in I3 and I4, where the electron is removed from Al+2 and Al+3 ions respectively.The increase in I.E. from I1 to I2 occur also because the first electron is removed from 3p orbital that is higher in energy than 3s orbital from which the second electron is removed.The largest jump in I.E. by far occur in going from the I3 and I4 because Al+3 has the configuration (1s2 2s2 2p6), the core electrons are bound much more tightly than valence electrons.

The values of the first I.E. for the elements are shown in the following figure:
55
Note that: As you go down a group first I.E. decreases because of electron being removed are, on average, farther from the nucleus. As n increases, the size of the orbital increases, and the electron is easier to remove. As you go across a period from left to right, first I.E. increases because - Same shielding (same principle quantum level) .
- Increasing nuclear charge (electrons are strongly bound)
There are some trends in I.E. in going across period. For example, trends occur from Be to B and from N to O. it can be explain in term of electron repulsion. Half-filled and filled orbitals are harder to remove electrons from
56
The ionization energies for the representative elements are summarized in the following figure
57
� Atomic Size or radius:The size of the orbital cannot be specified exactly (The electron cloud
doesn’t have a definite edge), neither can the size of an atom.
We can make some arbitrary choice to obtain values for atomic radii.
These values can be obtain by measuring the distance between atoms in chemical compounds.
For example, in Br2 molecule, the distance between the two nuclei is 228 pm. The Br atomic radius is assumed to be half this distance, or 114 pm, as shown in the following figure.
