Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle(1901-1976) • The principle states that it is impossible to know the exact position and momentum of an electron.
QUANTUM NUMBERS • The shape, size, and energy of each orbital is a function of 4 quantum numbers which describe the location of an electron within an atom or ion n ---> energy level l ---> sublevel ,shape of orbital ml ---> designates the rotation of the orbital s ---> spin of the electron (clockwise or counterclockwise:
1. Principal quantum number (n) Describes the energy level where the e- can be found.
2. Angular Quantum Number(l) • The orbitals, associated with each energy, determine where the electrons are located. This quantum number can take on the values: l=0 (s-orbital) l=1 (p-orbital) l=2 (d-orbital) l=3 (f-orbital)
3.Magnetic Quantum Number ml • Magnetic quantum numbers give the 3D orientation of each orbital.
4. Spin quantum number Describes the spin of the electron.
Electron Configuration Electron configuration is a shorthand notation for describing the arrangement of the electrons about the nucleus. General format using the quantum numbers: n l e- n = principle quantum number l = orbital quantum number e- = number of electrons
Examples Electronic Configuration: C 1s22s22p2 2, 4 Si How do we know how many electrons are in each level?
