  • Review Sheet on Determining Term Symbols
    Review Sheet on Determining Term Symbols Term symbols for electronic configurations are useful not only to the spectroscopist but also to the inorganic chemist interested in understanding electronic and magnetic properties of molecules. We will concentrate on the method of Douglas and McDaniel (p. 26ff); however, you may find other treatments equal or superior to the D & M method. Term symbols are a shorthand method used to describe the energy, angular momentum, and spin multiplicity of an atom in any particular state. The general form is a given as Tj where T is a capital letter corresponding to the value of L (the angular momentum quantum number) and may be assigned as S, P, D, F, G, … for |L| = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, … respectively. The superscript “a” is called the spin multiplicity and can be evaluated as a = 2S +1 where S is the spin quantum number. The subscript “j” is the numerical value of J, a new quantum number defined as: J = l +S, which corresponds to the total orbital and spin angular momentum of the system. The term symbol 3P is read as triplet – Pee state and indicates that there are two unpaired electrons in a state with maximum orbital angular momentum, L=1. The number of microstates (N) of a system corresponds to the total number of distinct arrangements for “e” number of electrons to be placed in “n” number of possible orbital positions. N = # of microstates = n!/(e!(n-e)!) For a set of p orbitals n = 6 since there are 2 positions in each orbital.

  • Atomic Spectroscopy Summary
    ATOMIC SPECTROSCOPY SUMMARY TERM SYMBOLS Because the total angular momentum and energy commute, we can use the angular momentum (L) to label the energy states. Note that electron configurations are ambiguous in that we don’t specify which orbital or which spin each electron has. This means that there are a number of different sets of 푚ℓ and 푚푠 that are consistent with a given configuration. Why are there different energies? Because of electron/electron repulsion and spin-orbit coupling, the ways we can fill the orbitals DO NOT NESCESSARILLY have the same energy. (Remember that we talked about how Hund’s rules come from this. How spin up elelctrons interact less with other spin up electrons in the same subshell.) Components of a Term Symbol: 2푆+1 퐿퐽 RULES FOR TERM SYMBOLS Term Symbols are assigned based on two main rules: 1. Unsöld’s Rule: All filled shells/subshells are ignored when calculating L and S. Basically, all of the electrons will have their contributions to spin and orbital angular momentum canceled by other electrons in the same subshell. 2. “holes”: The state of the “hole” (an empty spot in an orbital where an electron could be but isn’t) is the same as the state of an electron. This means that when we look at a p5 we can pretend it is a p1. This is incredibly useful as it means that instead of 5 electrons to tinker with, you can just act like it is 1. CALCULATING L: L is the Total Angular Momentum L= (sum of ℓ values) ….(smallest positive difference of ℓ values) o 2 s electrons (different shells) L=0+0,…,0-0 L=0 o 1 d electron and 1 p electron L=2+1,…,2-1 L=3, 2, 1 S is the Total Spin S is the total spin quantum number of the electrons in an atom.

Odutola* Department of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University, Normal AL 35762, USA Abstract We have computed the term symbols resulting from the coupling of angular momenta of both spin and orbital from the ground state electron configuration. Configurations of equivalent electrons present challenges and were handled by the group theoretical methods. Terms are the combined values of L and S while the combined values of L, S and J defines the level.

Learning Outcomes In this module, you will study about the failures of the Bohr theory, which led to the formulation of the quantum theory. You will understand how the new theory could explain the fine structure in the spectra of hydrogen and hydrogen-like ions, and how this theory can be extended to atoms which have a single electron in their outermost shell, i.e. the alkali metal atoms. You should also be able to write the term symbols for simple one-electron systems. 2. Introduction Bohr’s model could only explain the line spectra of hydrogen and hydrogen-like ions. However, it did not even attempt to explain the spectra of multi-electron atoms. Even in the case of hydrogen, higher resolution shows that each line is split into a doublet, which the Bohr theory was clearly unable to explain. Clearly, the Bohr theory was inadequate and a better, universally applicable, theory was required. 3. Multi-electron Atoms The problem with multi-electron atoms is that, not only are there several electrons getting attracted to the same nucleus, they are repelling each other as well. This repulsion is much harder to deal with.

Despite the intense interest in these complexes, the chalcogen dependence on the lifetime of the triplet LL′CT excited state remains ′ unexplained. Three new (LE,E )Pt(bpy) complexes with mixed chalcogen donors exhibit decay rates that are dominated by a spin−orbit mediated nonradiative pathway, the magnitude of which is proportional to the anisotropic covalency provided by the mixed-chalcogen donor ligand environment. This anisotropic covalency is dramatically revealed in the 13C NMR chemical shifts of the donor carbons that bear the chalcogens and is further probed by S K-edge XAS. Remarkably, the NMR chemical shift differences also correlate with the spin−orbit matrix element that connects the triplet excited state with the ground state. Consequently, triplet LL′CT excited state lifetimes are proportional to both functions, demonstrating that specific ground state NMR chemical shifts can be used to evaluate spin−orbit coupling contributions to excited state lifetimes.

Learning Outcomes After studying this module, you shall be able to Know the difference between spinning and orbital motion of an electron Learn various factors influencing the spin orbit coupling Analyze various free ion terms for different configurations Understand the orbital in an atom along with orbital motion 2. Introduction For multi-electronic atoms and ions, the spin and orbital motion of various electrons are coupled together by spin-orbit coupling or L-S coupling or Russell-Saunders coupling. In this practice the total angular momentum represented by L and total spin angular momentum given by S, combine together to generate a new quantum number given by J. 3. Spinning of an electron A spherical body rotating about a fixed axis that passes through a point at the center of the sphere represents a model that how electron behaves in an atom.

  • A COMPARATIVE STUDY of the ATOMIC TERM SYMBOLS of F3 and F11 CONFIGURATION P
    ACPI Acta Chim. Pharm. Indica: 2(1), 2012, 32-45 ISSN 2277-288X A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE ATOMIC TERM SYMBOLS OF f3 AND f11 CONFIGURATION P. L. MEENA*, P. K. JAIN, N. KUMAR and K. S. MEENA Department of Chemistry, M. L. V. Govt. College, BHILWARA (Raj.) INDIA (Received : 13.10.2011; Revised : 30.10.2011; Accepted : 31.10.2011) ABSTRACT The term is a particular energy state and term symbol is a label to energy state. The importance of these term symbols has been emphasized in connection with the spectral and magnetic properties of complexes and metal free ions and also provide information about the energy of atomic electrons in orbital’s and total spin, total orbital and grand total momenta of whole atom and electronic configuration. Russell-Saunders (L-S) coupling and j-j coupling schemes are important schemes for determination of terms and term symbols of the atoms and ions of inner transition elements in which electrons are filled in a f sub-shell with azimuthal quantum number 3. The determination of terms and term symbols for fn configuration is very difficult work since there are seven orbital’s in f-sub shell which give large number of microstates. In this proposed work computation is done for calculating all possible terms and term symbols regarding for f3 and f11 configurations without any long tabulation with mental exercise and a comparative study was carried out between the f3 and f11 terms and term symbols. The possible microstates and spectroscopic terms calculated for f3 and f11 configuration (ions M+3) are 364 and 17.
