  1. Subshells and Orbitals Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  2. Quantum Mechanics Describes the arrangement of electrons in atoms in terms of: • Main or principal energy levels (n) • Energy subshells • Orbitals (space occupied within the atom) Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  3. Principal Energy Levels (n) Contain electrons that are • Close in energy • Similar distance from nucleus • Have values of n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6….. • Maximum number of electrons = 2n2 n =1 2(1)2 = 2 n =2 2(2)2 =8 n=3 Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  4. Energy Levels (Shells) • A group of electrons in an atom all having the same principal quantum number (n) n = 1, 2, 3, … • The first shell (n = 1) is lowest in energy, 2nd level next and so on 1<2<3<4 • The number of electron in each shell is limited to 2n2 n = 1 2n2 = 2 n = 2 2n2 = ____ Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  5. Energy Levels for Electrons Some possible electron transitions for the first three energy levels are shown below. The negative value means that the electron in the atom has a lower energy than a free electron Energy Level Energy, E n=3 ___________________ (-) 2.420 x 1019 J n=2 __________________ (-) 5.445 x 1019 J n=1 __________________ (-) 2.178 x 1018 J Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  6. Learning Check S1 A. What energy change (J) takes place when an electron in a hydrogen atom moves from the first (n=1) to the second shell (n=2)? B. What energy change (J) takes place when the electron moves from the third shell to the second shell? Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  7. Solution S1 A. What energy change takes place when an electron in a hydrogen atom moves from the first (n=1) to the second shell (n=2)? 1.634 x 10-18 J of energy must be absorbed. B. What energy change takes place when the electron moves from the third shell to the second shell? (-5.445 x 10-19J)-(2.2420 x 10-19 J) = -3.025 x 1019J will be emitted as electron falls from a higher to a lower energy state Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  8. Subshells • Energy sublevels within energy level • All electrons in a subshell have the same energy • Designated s, p, d, f .. • Sublevel energy: s<p<d<f Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  9. Electron Locations Main Energy Levels Sublevels n=4 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f n=3 3s, 3p, 3d n=2 2s, 2p n=1 1s Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  11. Electrons Allowed • All electrons in the same sublevel have the same energy. • All 2s electrons have the same energy. All 2p electrons have the same energy which is slightly higher than the energy of the 2s electrons s sublevel 2 electrons p sublevel 6 electrons d sublevel 10 electrons f sublevel 14 electrons Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000

  13. Order of Filling • Total energy of a subshell = energy of the main shell + the subshell • The 4s energy < 3d energy 4p ___ 3d ___ (finishes the n=3 shell) 4s ___ (starts the n=4 shell) 3p ___ 3s ___ 2p ___ 2s ___ 1s ___ Timberlake LecturePLUS 2000
