principle quantum number - n

angular momentum quantum number - l

magnetic quantum number - nl

spin quantum number - ms

100

what is the pauli exclusion principle

no two electrons have the same set of four quantum numbers

100

give an example of homogenous mixture

salt water, alcohol, etc

100

what are valence electrons 

electrons found in the outermost shell of an atom

100

what type of bonding involves the sharing of electrons between non-metals

covalent

200

what possible values can each quantum number have

n - integers (1,2,3....)

l - 0 to n-1

ml - -1 to +1ms - -1/2 or +1/2

200
what is hunds rule

within a subshell, electrons do not pair up unless all orbitals in that subshell already contain one electron

200

which elements can form more than one type of cation

transition metals

200

what is shielding

inner electrons reduce the attraction between the nucleus and outer electrons

200

what is ionic bonding

type of bonding that forms from electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions

300

If n = 4, l = 2, what could ml be?

-2, -1, 0, 1, 2

300

what is the maximum number of electrons that can be found in each orbital

s = 2

p = 6

d = 10

f = 14

300

0.450 moles of Fe contains how many atoms?

Atoms  = moles x Avogadro’s number

  = 0.450 mol x 6.022 x 1023

  = 2.71 x 10^23 atoms

300

what is effective nuclear charge

net positive charge experienced by an electron after shielding is considered

300

metals form what types of ions because they lose electrons easily

cations
