Title: Electronic arrangement of atoms
1Electronic arrangement of atoms(??????)
2Development of atomic models
3Bohrs Model
- According to Bohrs Model of atom, electrons are
orbiting (?????) around the nucleus in different
shells. And different shells hold different no.
of electrons.
4Electronic configuration (????) of atoms
- According to some other experiments (Will be
studied in Alevel), atoms are found to have
different no. of electrons in individual orbits
(??). - The electrons in an orbit is said to form an
electron shell (???). - The arrangement (??) of electrons in an atom is
known aselectronic configuration (????).
5Electronic configuration (????) of atoms
- A sodium atom has 11 electrons and are arranged
in 3 shells. - The electronic configuration can be represented
as follows
By electron diagram
By notation
An electron may be represented by a cross (), a
dot () or the symbol (e-)
2, 8, 1
1st shell
2nd shell
3rd shell
6Electronic configuration (????) of atoms of the
first 20 elements
For the first 20 elements, it is found that the
maximum no. of electrons that each shell can hold
is limited. Shell Maximum no. 1 2 2 8
3 8 (18 for other elements)
7? State the electronic configurations of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
8? State the electronic configurations of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
2, 5
9? State the electronic configurations of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
2, 5
2, 8, 8, 2
10? State the electronic configurations of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
2, 5
2, 8, 8, 2
2, 8, 7
11Drawing of electron diagram
- In the drawing, the electrons should fill up the
shells in a particular order. Except the first
shell, the electrons fill up the four corners
of the shell before pairing up.
12? Draw the electron diagrams of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
13? Draw the electron diagrams of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
14? Draw the electron diagrams of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
15? Draw the electron diagrams of
- Nitrogen
- Calcium
- Chlorine
16Electronic configuration (????) of atoms of the
first 20 elements
17Electronic configuration (????) of atoms of the
first 20 elements
For the first 20 elements, it is found that the
maximum no. of electrons that each shell can hold
is limited. Shell Maximum no. 1 2 2 8
3 8 (18 for other elements)
18Stability (???) of noble gas (??) configuration
19Stability (???) of noble gas (??) configuration
20Octet rule (?????)
- Besides helium, all noble gases have 8 outermost
shell electrons. An electron shell with 8
electrons is known as an octet (???). An atom
with an octet is said to be exceptionally (???)
stable. - Helium has only 2 electrons in the outermost
shell. It is said to have a duplet. - In general, an atom with a completely filled
outermost shell (valence shell) would be more
stable.
