1 Quantum Theory & Electronic Structure of Atoms It s Unreal!! Check your intuition at the door. 1

2 Quantum Theory of the Atom Description of the atom and subatomic particles. We will focus on the electronic structure of the atom. 2

3 Classical Quantum 1900: Max Planck (studying radiation from heated objects) discovered energy is emitted in quanta, 3

4 Background: Waves Light energy travels in waves. Sine (or cosine) waveform Wavelength: l Frequency: n Energy: E 4

5 Waves Frequency (n) is number waves/sec (cycles per second = Hz) 5

6 Wave Speed: u u = l n length time m/s length wave m waves time s -1 = Hz Ocean: energy moves, not water! 6

7 n (Hz) l (m) Electromagnetic Radiation Light is EM wave u = c = 3.00 x 10 8 m/s 7

8 Electromagnetic Radiation What is the frequency of green light with l = 522 nm? u = c = l n n = c/l n = (3 x10 8 m/s) / 522 x 10-9 m = 5.75 X Hz 8

9 Electromagnetic Radiation Try it: What is wavelength of radio waves with frequency of 5.2 x 10 6 Hz? 9

10 EM Radiation (light) Light: wave or particle? Yes! Excerpt from Physics by Giancolli Photon: smallest particle of light. 10

11 Energy of a Photon Energy (E) is proportional to n E = h n Planck s constant= 6.63 x J s Light emitted in energy packets of hn. This equation links wave and particle theory. 11

12 E = h n What is the energy of a yellow photon with frequency of 6.12 x Hz? 12

13 Energy of a Photon Since and E = h n c = l n then E = hc l 13

14 E = hc l Try it: What is the energy of a blue photon with a wavelength of 420 nm? 14

15 E = hc l Keep going: What is the energy of a mole of blue photons with a wavelength of 420 nm? 15

16 1913: The Bohr Hydrogen Atom 16

17 What Holds an Electron Near the Nucleus? Classical physics: Electrostatic attraction F = q 1 q 2 r 2 Coulomb s Law q 1 =nuclear charge (+) q 2 = electron charge (-) r = distance between nucleus & e - 17

18 Emission Spectrum Excited atoms are known to emit energy in the form of discrete wavelengths of light. Why?? 18

19 Hydrogen Line Spectrum 19

20 Bohr: Planetary Model Electrons move in circular orbits around nucleus, and each orbit has a certain energy. E, E, E

21 energy Stair Analogy: H spectrum due to e - transition between orbits. E 5 E 4 E 3 E 2 E 1 21

22 energy e - in Ground State E 5 E 4 E 3 E 2 E 1 22

23 energy e - in Excited State E 5 E 4 Is e - moving to excited state endo- or exothermic? E 3 E 2 E 1 23

24 energy e - in Excited State E 5 E 4 E 3 E 2 E 1 24

25 energy e - Returning to Ground E 5 E 4 photon E 3 E 2 Endo- or exothermic? E 1 25

26 energy e - Returning to Ground E 5 E 4 lower energy photon E 3 E 2 E 1 26

27 Bohr: Hydrogen Emission Spectrum E 3 E 2 E 1 + e - absorbs energy (heat, elec.) e - falls to lower E and gives off energy as light E light =E 3 -E 1 27

28 Bohr: Hydrogen Emission Spectrum 28

29 Bohr: Energy Levels (H only) E n = x J n 2 1 n is the e - energy level or orbit n = 1, 2, 3, (quantized) Negative since free electron is defined as zero energy. 29

30 Photon Energy (line emission) DE = hn = hc/l = E f - E i hc/l = -2.18E-18 J 1 n f 2-1 n i 2 (allows calculation of the wavelengths of hydrogen spectrum) 30

31 Try it! What is the wavelength of a light emitted from transition of e- from 5 th energy level to ground state (n=1)? What part of the EM spectrum is this photon? 31

32 Emission of Light 32

33 Bohr Theory: Failings 1.What holds an electron in an orbit? 2.Why do e - only have certain orbital energies? 3.Only explains hydrogen. 33

34 DeBroglie: 1924 e - is both particle and wave (WOW!), and orbits must be quantized to fit the e - wave. (You are also particle & wave!!!) 34

35 Electrons as Waves n =4.3 n = 5 n = 4 35

36 Electrons as Waves 2pr = n l quantization 36

37 Quantum Mechanics (Wave Mechanics) 1926: Erwin Schrodinger and Werner Heisenberg e - location (orbital) only described by a probability function, Y. 37

38 Schrodinger Equation d 2 Y dx 2 + d2 Y dy 2 d 2 Y + + dz 2 8p 2 m h 2 (E U) Y = 0 38

39 Quantum Mechanics The Schrodinger equation can only be solved exactly for H atom. Other atoms can be solved by approximation. 39

40 Electron Orbitals e - do not revolve in orbits. Regions in space around the nucleus with high probability of finding an e - are called orbitals. Each orbital can hold two e -. 95% 40

41 Electron Orbitals: given by 3 quantum numbers Principal QN = n = shell overall e - energy Angular momentum QN = subshell orbital shape Magnetic QN direction in space of the orbital 41

42 Principal Quantum Number (n) or Principal Energy Shell n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (integer values) Gives overall energy of an e - and its distance from nucleus. 42

43 Angular momentum QN (subshell) Gives shape of the e - cloud designated by letters: s, p, d, f 43

44 Energy Subshell s has 1 orbital p has 3 orbitals d has 5 orbitals f has 7 orbitals 2 e - 6 e - 10 e - 14 e - Each orbital can hold 2 e - 44

45 s orbitals (one per energy level) 1s 2s 3s 45

46 p orbitals (three per energy level) p x p y p z 46

47 d orbitals (five per energy level) d xz d yz d xy d x 2-y2 d z 2 47

48 f orbitals (seven per energy level) 48

49 Number of Orbitals per energy level one s three p five d seven f 49

50 Allowed Combinations n Sublevels # Orbitals #e 1 1s s 2p 1+3= s 3p 3d 1+3+5= s 4p 4d 4f =16 32 (model) 50

51 e - Configurations: 3 Rules 1. Aufbau: arrange e - by lowest energy level first 2. Pauli Exclusion Principle: only 2 e - per orbital 3. Hund s Rule: maximize the number of parallel spin e - when filling a sublevel 51

52 Aufbau: Electron Energy For Hydrogen, n alone determines the energy level. Thus: E 1s<2s=2p<3s =3p=3d<4s.. 52

53 Electron Energy In all atoms but hydrogen, the energy of an e - in an orbital depends on both level & sublevel. 53

54 Energy & Shielding In many-electron atoms, inner shell e - reduce the positive nuclear charge felt by outer e -. Z = nuclear charge = +3 Z eff = effective nuclear charge is closer to +1 2s 1s Li +3 54

55 Shielding Due to different orbital shapes, 2s e - has slightly greater e - density nearer the nucleus than 2p e -. Thus 2s has lower energy than 2p, and 2s shields 2p. 55

56 Shielding n = 4 s d n = 3 p s n = 2 p s n = 1 s 56

57 Energy Levels Order of increasing energy: 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s lower than 3d!! 57

58 Orbital Box Diagram energy 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 58

59 2. Pauli Exclusion Principle: only 2 e - per orbital Electrons have spin! 1s orbital Paired electrons: e - in an orbital have opposite spins 59

60 3. Hund s Rule Maximize parallel (same) spins when filling a sublevel In a sublevel, put one e - in each orbital before pairing Example: 4 e - in a p sublevel 60
