Electron Configurations

Atomic Orbitals

• Each electron is assigned to:Primary energy level (shell), nOrbital type in the shell (s,p,d,f)Specific orbital of the type

Because of repulsion considerations only 2 electrons can occupy any orbital (spinning in opposite directions)

You can use a chartlike this to determine the electron configuration.

(But there is an easierway.)

Determining Electron Configuration

SOLUTION:

PROBLEM: Using the periodic table on the inside cover of the text (not Figure 8.12 or Table 8.4), give the full and condensed electrons configurations, partial orbital diagrams showing valence electrons, and number of inner electrons for the following elements:

(a) potassium (K: Z = 19)

(b) molybdenum (Mo: Z = 42)

(c) lead (Pb: Z = 82)

Use the atomic number for the number of electrons and the periodic table for the order of filling for electron orbitals. Condensed configurations consist of the preceding noble gas and outer electrons.

(a) for K (Z = 19)

Configuration for Ions

• What is the electron configuration for Na+?

Na = 1s22s22p63s1

Na+ = 1s22s22p63s1

• What is the electron configuration for Se2-?

Se = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p4

Se2- = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p6

Configuration for Ions

• Transitions metals have a twist…Fe = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d6

Fe2+ = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d6

Fe3+ = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d5
