After the discovery of the electron by ________, the atomic model was revised to include them.
JJ Thomson
The first modern atomic theory, proposed by _________, portrayed the atoms as a solid, indivisible mass.
John Dalton
AT, ST, or NT: As many as four electrons can occupy the same orbital.
NT
AT, ST, or NT: The configuration 3d^4 4s^2 is more stable than the configuration 3d^5 4s^1
NT
AT, ST, or NT: The number of sublevels in an energy level is equal to the square of the principal quantum number of that energy level.
NT
the _______ describes the sequence in which orbitals are filled.
aufbau principle
what are the three rules for writing the electron configurations of elements
aufbau principle, pauli exclusion principle, and hunds rule
Why do actual electron configurations for some elements differ from those assigned using the aufbau principle?
because half-filled sublevels are not as stable as filed ones, but they are more stable than other configurations
Why does one electron in a potassium atom go into the fourth energy level instead of squeezing into the third energy level along with the eight already there?
because the outer shell can only have 8 electrons
Correct electron configurations can be obtained by using the Aufbau diagram for the elements up to and including vanadium. __________and copper are exceptions to the Aufbau principle.
chromium
In the Bohr model, the electrons move in _______ paths.
circular
historical summary of the atomic theory
dalton says atoms are tiny, indestructible particles. thomson discovers electron. rutherford finds that atom has small, dense, positively charged nucleus. Bohr's model- electron moves in circular orbit at fixed distances from nucleus. Shrodinger develops mathematical equations to describe motion of electrons in atoms which led to quantum mechanical model. Chadwick confirms electrons and atomic nuclei contains neutrons and positively charged protons.
What does the quantum mechanical model determine about the electrons in an atom?
determines the allowed energies an electron can have and how likely it is to find the electron in various locations in the nucleus
the most stable arrangement of electrons around the nucleus of an atom
electron configuration
The ways in which electrons are arranged around the nuclei of atoms are called __________.
electron configurations
The chemical properties of atoms, ions, and molecules are related to the arrangement of the __________ within them.
electrons
How can electrons in an atom move from one energy level to another?
electrons make quantum leaps by gaining or losing precise amounts of energy
What is a region in space around the nucleus of an atom where an electron is likely to be moving?
energy level
The various orbitals within a sublevel of a principle energy level are always of _______ energy

what is the modern description of the behavior of electrons in atoms
quantum mechanical model
How do two sublevels of the same principal energy level differ from each other?
sublevels have different shapes
