History of sub-atomic particle discovery: Watch History of Subatomic Particles video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBgIMRV895w The Bohr model of the atom and electrons: Watch Bozeman Science The Bohr Atom video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhAn8xZQ-d8 The Quantum-Mechanical Model of the atom: The current model of the atom has the atom containing a small, dense positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in a wave-like motion around the nucleus. This motion is modified by mass and charge interactions between electrons and the nucleus. The interactions and the fast speed of the electron make it impossible to know both where an electron is and where it is going at any particular moment. All that can be known is a general area of probable space where the electron might be. Electrons travel in principal energy levels made up of sublevels, with each sublevel Page 6 of 61 Website upload 2014 Unit 5: Electrons-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch made up of orbitals that contain two electrons in each orbital. Electrons in the same orbital will spin in opposite directions. The end result is that the current model of the atom shows the electron’s around a nucleus closely resemble a cloud of gnats (the electrons) buzzing around your head (the nucleus). The Development of the Atom Model: Page 7 of 61 Website upload 2014 Unit 5: Electrons-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch Topic: Light Objective: Why does high temperature matter emit light? 1. Electrons (charge of -1 and having a mass of 1/1836th amu) surround the nucleus of an atom in distinct energy levels. Electrons (e-) occupy the lowest possible energy levels when the atom is in the ground state. 2. When electrons have energy added (in the form of light, heat, or electricity), electrons will rise in energy level by the same amount of energy that the electrons were given. The higher the energy added, the higher the electrons rise in level. The higher energy level is called the excited state. This is in accordance with the Law of Conservation of Energy, stating energy may not be created or destroyed by physical or chemical change. 3. As electrons are negatively charged, they are attracted to the positively charged nucleus, and will eventually release the excited state energy as they fall back to the ground state. 4. The energy released as an electron returns to the ground state is in the form of photons. Photons are the smallest known particles, and are essentially massless. Photons travel at the fastest theoretical Page 8 of 61 Website upload 2014 Unit 5: Electrons-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch speed possible, 3 x 108 m/sec, or the speed of light. Photons are considered particles of light. 5. The color of the light emitted is determined by the amount of energy released by the electron as it dropped back to the ground state. Light particles travel in a wave pattern. The more energy a photon has, the shorter its wavelength. Photons with wavelengths shorter than visible light (high energy) are found in gamma rays, X- rays, and ultraviolet. Visible light photons make up a very small part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are in the middle of the photon energy range. For visible light, the higher energy photons are violet, and the lower energy photons are red. Photons with wavelengths longer than visible light (lower energy) are infrared, radar, microwave, and radio. Page 9 of 61 Website upload 2014 Unit 5: Electrons-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch Topic: Light Objective: Why does high temperature matter emit light? 6. There are three properties of light waves: energy (Ɛ, in joules); wavelength (λ, in meters); and frequency (ν, in wavelengths per second, or Hz). Note that frequency, (ν), is the number of wavelengths that pass a given point in one second. All photons travel at the speed of light (3 x 108 m/sec), so all photons have the same speed. Therefore, a greater number of short wavelength photons will pass a certain point each second than will long wavelength photons.

As the energy of a photon increases, the wavelength shortens and the frequency increases as more short wavelengths may pass a point in one second. The Continuous Electromagnetic Spectrum (from 2006 Physics Ref Table) Page 11 of 61 Website upload 2014 Unit 5: Electrons-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch Topic: Electron Energy levels Objective: What are the different drops of energy for electrons? Each atom has many electron levels. Electrons can drop from the excited state in different pathways. If an electron is excited from the first to the fourth energy level, the electron may fall back in one of the following pathways. i. From the 4th to the 1st energy level; ii. From the 4th to the 3rd to the 1st energy level; iii. From the 4th to the 2nd to the 1st energy level; iv. From the 4th to the 3rd to the 2nd to the 1st energy level. Each different drop in energy level emits light with a different amount of energy, and therefore a different wavelength (color). A sample of pure element subjected to electrical current excites the sample’s electrons. When the excited electrons fall back toward the ground state, the differing amounts of energy will give off different colors of light. The sample will look as if it glows a certain color. If the light emitted is projected through a prism onto a white backdrop, the individual energies of the emissions may be seen as bright lines (spectra) of different colors.

He noticed that both the chemical and physical properties repeated every 8 elements and called this the ____Law of Octaves ___________. In 1869 both Lothar Meyer and Dmitri Mendeleev showed a connection between atomic mass and an element’s properties. Mendeleev published first, and is given credit for this. He also noticed a periodic pattern when elements were ordered by increasing ___Atomic Mass _______________________________. By arranging elements in order of increasing atomic mass into columns, Mendeleev created the first Periodic Table. This table also predicted the existence and properties of undiscovered elements. After many new elements were discovered, it appeared that a number of elements were out of order based on their _____Properties_________. In 1913 Henry Mosley discovered that each element contains a unique number of ___Protons________________. By rearranging the elements based on _________Atomic Number___, the problems with the Periodic Table were corrected.

  • Of the Periodic Table
    of the Periodic Table teacher notes Give your students a visual introduction to the families of the periodic table! This product includes eight mini- posters, one for each of the element families on the main group of the periodic table: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Boron/Aluminum Group (Icosagens), Carbon Group (Crystallogens), Nitrogen Group (Pnictogens), Oxygen Group (Chalcogens), Halogens, and Noble Gases. The mini-posters give overview information about the family as well as a visual of where on the periodic table the family is located and a diagram of an atom of that family highlighting the number of valence electrons. Also included is the student packet, which is broken into the eight families and asks for specific information that students will find on the mini-posters. The students are also directed to color each family with a specific color on the blank graphic organizer at the end of their packet and they go to the fantastic interactive table at www.periodictable.com to learn even more about the elements in each family. Furthermore, there is a section for students to conduct their own research on the element of hydrogen, which does not belong to a family. When I use this activity, I print two of each mini-poster in color (pages 8 through 15 of this file), laminate them, and lay them on a big table. I have students work in partners to read about each family, one at a time, and complete that section of the student packet (pages 16 through 21 of this file). When they finish, they bring the mini-poster back to the table for another group to use.

  • Periodic Trends Lab CHM120 1The Periodic Table Is One of the Useful
    Periodic Trends Lab CHM120 1The Periodic Table is one of the useful tools in chemistry. The table was developed around 1869 by Dimitri Mendeleev in Russia and Lothar Meyer in Germany. Both used the chemical and physical properties of the elements and their tables were very similar. In vertical groups of elements known as families we find elements that have the same number of valence electrons such as the Alkali Metals, the Alkaline Earth Metals, the Noble Gases, and the Halogens. 2Metals conduct electricity extremely well. Many solids, however, conduct electricity somewhat, but nowhere near as well as metals, which is why such materials are called semiconductors. Two examples of semiconductors are silicon and germanium, which lie immediately below carbon in the periodic table. Like carbon, each of these elements has four valence electrons, just the right number to satisfy the octet rule by forming single covalent bonds with four neighbors. Hence, silicon and germanium, as well as the gray form of tin, crystallize with the same infinite network of covalent bonds as diamond. 3The band gap is an intrinsic property of all solids. The following image should serve as good springboard into the discussion of band gaps. This is an atomic view of the bonding inside a solid (in this image, a metal). As we can see, each of the atoms has its own given number of energy levels, or the rings around the nuclei of each of the atoms. These energy levels are positions that electrons can occupy in an atom. In any solid, there are a vast number of atoms, and hence, a vast number of energy levels.

  • Periodic Table of the Elements Notes
    Periodic Table of the Elements Notes Arrangement of the known elements based on atomic number and chemical and physical properties. Divided into three basic categories: Metals (left side of the table) Nonmetals (right side of the table) Metalloids (touching the zig zag line) Basic Organization by: Atomic structure Atomic number Chemical and Physical Properties Uses of the Periodic Table Useful in predicting: chemical behavior of the elements trends properties of the elements Atomic Structure Review: Atoms are made of protons, electrons, and neutrons. Elements are atoms of only one type. Elements are identified by the atomic number (# of protons in nucleus). Energy Levels Review: Electrons are arranged in a region around the nucleus called an electron cloud. Energy levels are located within the cloud. At least 1 energy level and as many as 7 energy levels exist in atoms Energy Levels & Valence Electrons Energy levels hold a specific amount of electrons: 1st level = up to 2 2nd level = up to 8 3rd level = up to 8 (first 18 elements only) The electrons in the outermost level are called valence electrons. Determine reactivity - how elements will react with others to form compounds Outermost level does not usually fill completely with electrons Using the Table to Identify Valence Electrons Elements are grouped into vertical columns because they have similar properties. These are called groups or families. Groups are numbered 1-18. Group numbers can help you determine the number of valence electrons: Group 1 has 1 valence electron. Group 2 has 2 valence electrons. Groups 3–12 are transition metals and have 1 or 2 valence electrons.

  • Electronegativity Seen As the Ground-State

Soc. 2019, 141, 342−351 pubs.acs.org/JACS Electronegativity Seen as the Ground-State Average Valence Electron Binding Energy † ‡ § Martin Rahm,*, Tao Zeng, and Roald Hoffmann † Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology, SE-412 96, Gothenburg, Sweden ‡ Department of Chemistry, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario K1S 5B6, Canada § Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: We introduce a new electronegativity scale for atoms, based consistently on ground-state energies of valence electrons. The scale is closely related to (yet different from) L. C. Allen’s, which is based on configuration energies. Using a combination of literature experimental values for ground-state energies and ab initio- calculated energies where experimental data are missing, we are able to provide electronegativities for elements 1−96. The values are slightly smaller than Allen’s original scale, but correlate well with Allen’s and others. Outliers in agreement with other scales are oxygen and fluorine, now somewhat less electronegative, but in better agreement with their chemistry with the noble gas elements. Group 11 and 12 electronegativities emerge as high, although Au less so than in other scales. Our scale also gives relatively high electronegativities for Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, Tc, Cd, Hg (affected by choice of valence state), and Gd. The new electronegativities provide hints for new alloy/compound design,

  • Octet Rule & Ions
    Chemistry 51 Chapter 5 OCTET RULE & IONS Most elements, except noble gases, combine to form compounds. Compounds are the result of the formation of chemical bonds between two or more different elements. In the formation of a chemical bond, atoms lose, gain or share valence electrons to complete their outer shell and attain a noble gas configuration. This tendency of atoms to have eight electrons in their outer shell is known as the octet rule. Formation of Ions: An ion (charged particle) can be produced when an atom gains or loses one or more electrons. A cation (+ ion) is formed when a neutral atom loses an electron. An anion (- ion) is formed when a neutral atom gains an electron. 1 Chemistry 51 Chapter 5 IONIC CHARGES The ionic charge of an ion is dependent on the number of electrons lost or gained to attain a noble gas configuration. For most main group elements, the ionic charges can be determined from their group number, as shown below: All other ionic charges need to be memorized and known in order to write correct formulas for the compounds containing them. 2 Chemistry 51 Chapter 5 COMPOUNDS Compounds are pure substances that contain 2 or more elements combined in a definite proportion by mass. Compounds can be classified as one of two types: Ionic and molecular (covalent) Ionic compounds are formed by combination of a metal and a non-metal. The smallest particles of ionic compounds are ions. Molecular compounds are formed by combination of 2 or more non-metals. The smallest particles of molecular compounds are molecules.

  • Chapter 1: Introduction to Electronics
    Chapter 1: Introduction to Electronics Electronic devices such as diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits are made of a semi conductive material. To understand how these devices work, we should have a basic knowledge of the structure of atoms and the interaction of atomic particles. An important concept introduced in this chapter is that of the pn junction that is formed when two different types of semi conductive material are joined. The pn junction is fundamental to the operation of devices such as the solar cell, the diode, and certain types of transistors **Valence Electrons Electrons that are in orbits farther from the nucleus have higher energy and are less tightly bound to the atom than those closer to the nucleus. This is because the force of attraction between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electron decreases with increasing distance from the nucleus. Electrons with the highest energy exist in the outermost shell of an atom and are relatively loosely bound to the atom. This outermost shell is known as the valence shell and electrons in this shell are called valence electrons . These valence electrons contribute to chemical reactions and bonding within the structure of a material and determine its electrical properties. When a valence electron gains sufficient energy from an external source, it can break free from its atom. This is the basis for conduction in materials. **Materials Used in Electronics Materials can be classified in terms of their electrical properties into three groups: conductors, semiconductors, and insulators. When atoms combine to form a solid, crystalline material, they arrange themselves in a symmetrical pattern.
