  1. POLYELECTRONIC ATOMSPERIODICITY OF ELEMENTS(Part 2; Sec 9-13) Electronic Configurations Periodic Trends

  2. POLYELECTRONIC ATOMS • We will extend the 1-electron results (energy eqn, quantum numbers, AO shapes, etc) to the polyelectronic atom (atoms with > 1 electron). • Electrostatic forces in the poly-e atom include nucleus-electron attractions and electron-electron repulsions.

  3. POLYELECTRONIC ATOMS • The e-e repulsions prevent the exact solution of the Schrodinger Eqn for helium and above. (Electron Correlation Problem) • The presence of > 1 electron results in partial shielding of the nuclear charge. I.e. Zeff = Zactual – electron shielding

  4. POLYELECTRONIC ATOMS (2) • Also, because of the difference in AO shape for different ℓ values, electrons with the same n but in different subshells (ℓ) experience different attractive forces to the nucleus. • As the electron spend more time near the nucleus, its energy becomes more negative (is held more tightly).

  5. POLYELECTRONIC ATOMS (3) • For the 1-e atom, AO energy depends only on n. As n increases, energy increases (becomes less positive). So AOs can be ordered from low to high energy: 1s < [2s, 2p] < [3s, 3p, 3d]... Fig 7.18 (note degeneracy). • For the many-electron atom, energy depends on n and ℓ: 1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p, etc. See Fig 7.22 (note that the degeneracy is partially lifted).

  8. PERIODIC TABLE • Most powerful tool in the study of chemistry. • Elements are placed in order by Z. • Used to predict undiscovered elements and their properties. Tables 7.3, 7.4 • Quantum mechanics explains the appearance of the PT and also periodicity of atomic properties

  10. Table 7.4 Predicted Properties of Elements 113 and 114

  11. From H to Polyelectronic Atoms • In H, AOs with the same n have the same E. • In multielectron atoms, • For a given set of QNs, orbital energies are lower than in H (larger Z value). • AOs with the same n value but different ℓ have different energies (nondegenerate). • orbitals with the same n and ℓ have the same E. • 3d and 4s have similar energies

  12. DETERMINING ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATIONS • What is the arrangement of electrons in the atom? What rules govern these arrangements or electronic configurations? • There are four quantum numbers [n, ℓ, mℓ, ms] that have defined relationships to each other and that are used to define a set of atomic orbitals (AOs) that electrons fill.

  13. ELECTRON CONFIG. (2) • Aufbau (building-up) Principle determines the order of filling AOs; i.e. the electronic configuration of the atom. The electrons fill the AOs in order of lowest energy (most negative) to highest energy. • The atom’s ground state is the one that has the lowest energy. All others are called excited states.

  14. ELECTRON CONFIG. (3) • Pauli Exclusion Principle: The maximum number of electrons per orbital is 2 because no two electrons can have the same 4 q.n. values in an atom. Since there are two spin states (up/down; α/β; ↑/↓), the max AO occupancy number is 2.

  15. ELECTRON CONFIG. (4) • Hund’s Rule: When filling orbitals of identical energy, fill the empty orbitals with one electron before pairing them up; I.e. maximize number of unpaired spins. This produces the lowest energy configuration. • There are exceptions: e.g. 4s fill before 3d; Cr, Cu have a single 4s electron and fully- or half-filled 3d orbitals (extra stability).

  16. ELECTRON CONFIG. (5) • Electron configs. of cations (remove from largest n AO) and anions (add according to Aufbau Prin.) • Ways to depict electronic config: • AO list with # electrons as superscripts • orbital diagram • noble gas core for [core electrons] + valence electrons (VE). Fig 7.25

  17. ELECTRON CONFIG. (6) • Valence electrons are the outermost electrons and the most important ones in chemical bonding. • Atoms in the same group have the same VE configuration.

  18. ELECTRON CONFIG. (7) • Learn electron config.s through Kr; use PT to identify VEs of atoms beyond Kr. • Count unpaired electrons • Fig 7.27 shows how the Periodic Table can be used to determine electron config. • Main Group: s- and p- block elements • Transition Group: d-block elements • Lanthanide and Actinide: f-block element

  22. PERIODIC LAW • Now we can see how the electronic configurations of atoms lead to periodicity of elements and form the basis for chemical and physical properties of elements. • PERIODIC LAW: When the elements are arranged according to Z, their physical and chemical properties vary periodically, regularly and predictably.

  23. PERIODIC LAW (2) • Elements in the nth A-Group (Main Group) have n electrons in the valence (outermost occupied) shell. • Elements in the nth period have n as the principal QN of its valence shell.

  24. PERIODICITY OF ATOMIC PROPERTIES • Ionization Energy: energy required to remove one electron from gaseous atom or ion (kJ/mol) • Fig 7.7.30, 7.31; Table 7.5, 7.6 • Atom (g) -----> Ion+(g) + electron, I1 • Across row, I1 increases WHY? • Down group, I1 decreases WHY? • I1 is highest in upper RH corner

  27. PERIODICITY OF ATOMIC PROPERTIES (2) • Electron Affinity: energy associated with addition of electron to gaseous species (kJ/mol) • Fig 7.32, Table 7.7 • Atom (g) + electron -----> Ion- (g) • Note most EA values are negative (exothermic) • Trend across row and down group? And WHY? • EA is highest in upper RH corner

  29. PERIODICITY OF ATOMIC PROPERTIES (3) • Atomic Radius: measure of atomic size • Atomic radii based on covalent or metallic bond distances (pm) • Figs 7.34 • Trend across row and down group? And WHY? • Atomic size is largest in lower LH corner • Note that size of cation < size of neutral atom • But size of anion > size of neutral atom
