Electrons in atoms
Where electrons are located in an atom
Outside of the nucleus
An electron that is closer to the nucleus will have (higher / lower) potential energy than an electron that is farther away
Lower
This quantum number describes the shape of the atomic orbital
Angular quantum number (or ℓ )
Light can be emitted from an atom when an electron does this.
Relaxes from a high energy orbital to a low energy orbital
Electrons preference is to be (higher/lower) in energy
Lower
The model that describes an electron's location as a circular path around the nucleus
Bohr model
The n and l values of a 3d orbital
n= 3, l = 2
The energy of light emitted from an atom when an electron relaxes from a n=2 orbital to a n = 1 orbital
The difference in energy between the n = 2 and n = 1 orbital
The subatomic particle that makes up almost all of the volume of an atom
Electron
In the modern quantum mechanical model, this is the shape of the lowest energy orbital
Spherical (s-type)
The quantum number that is equal to the row number of s- and p-type orbitals
The principal quantum number (n)
The direction an electron moves when going from a lower energy orbital to a higher energy orbital
Away from the nucleus
The reason electrons are attracted to the nucleus
Positive charge of protons
How the Schrodinger model describes the location of an electron
A region of space where the e- has a high probability of being
The number of possible values of this quantum number depends what type of orbital (shape) it is describing
Magnetic Quantum Number (ml)
Describes the orientation of p, d, or f orbitals
(p has 3 orbitals/orientations, d has 5, f has 7)
The reason every element has a unique emission spectrum
Orbitals have different energy in different elements
The subatomic particle that has REPULSIVE interactions with electrons
Other electrons
In the modern quantum mechanical model, this is how atomic orbitals are related to the periodic table
The shape of the periodic table (s,p,d,f block) with rows related to n-level
The reason why a maximum of 2 electrons can fit into any orbital
No two electrons can have the exact same set of quantum numbers, and the only spin (ms) possible are up or down
The force that makes electrons have higher energy when farther from the nucleus
Electrostatic potential energy (due to the force between charged particles)
