    Atomic number (Z) = number of protons in nucleus.

    (this must also equal the number of electrons

    in neutral atom)

    Mass number (A) = sum of number of protons

    + neutrons in nucleus.

    Schrdinger Equation Schrdinger combined the idea that an electron has

    wave properties with classical equations of wavemotion to give a wave equation for the energy of an

    electron in an atom.

    Wave equation (Schrdinger equation) gives a

    series of solutions called wave functions ().

    Wave Functions Only certain values of are allowed.

    Each corresponds to a certain energy.

    The probability of finding an electron at a particular

    point with respect to the nucleus is given by 2.

    Heisenberg uncertainty principle: we can not tell

    where an electron is; however, we can predict where it is

    most likely to be. Each energy state corresponds to an orbital.

    Quantum Numbers Each orbital is characterized by a unique set of

    quantum numbers.

    The principal quantum numbern is a whole number

    (integer) that specifies the shell and is related to the

    energy of the orbital.

    The angular momentum quantum numberl is usually

    designated by a letter (s,p,d,f, etc) and describes the

    shape of the orbital.

    Quantum Numbers Each orbital is characterized by a unique

    set of quantum numbers. The magnetic quantum numberml describes the

    orientation of the orbital in space.

    The electron spin quantum numberms has a value

    of +1/2 or -1/2.

    s Orbitals

    s Orbitals are spherically symmetric.

    The energy of an s orbital increases with thenumber ofnodal surfaces it has.

    A nodal surface is a region where the probability of

    finding an electron iszero.

    A 1s orbital has no nodes; a 2s orbital has one;

    a 3s orbital has two, etc.

    The Pauli Exclusion Principle

    No two electrons in the same atom can have the

    same set of four quantum numbers.

    Two electrons can occupy the same orbital only

    when they have opposite spins.

    There is a maximum of two electrons per orbital.

    Octet rule: Nobel or rare gases (helium, neon, andargon) have 8 electrons in their valence shell.

    Ionization energy is the energy required to removean e- from an atom.

    Electron affinity is the energy change upon the

    addition of an e- to an atom.

    Energy absorbing reactions are calledendothermic.

    Energy releasing reactions are calledexothermic.

    1.15. What Happened to pKb?

    A separate basicity constantKb is not necessary.

    Because of the conjugate relationships in theBrnsted-Lowry approach, we can examine acid-

    base reactions by relying exclusively on pKa values.

    Which is the stronger base, ammonia (left) or

    pyridine (right)?

    Recall that the stronger the acid, the weaker the

    conjugate base. Therefore, the stronger base is the

    conjugate of the weaker acid. Look up the pKa values of the conjugate acids of

    ammonia and pyridine in Table 1.8.

    Bond Strength

    Recall that bond strength decreases in a group in

    going down the periodic table.

    Generalization: Bond strength is most importantfactor when considering acidity of protons bonded to

    atoms in same group of periodic table (as in HF, HCl,

    HBr, and HI).

    Another example: H2S (pKa = 7.0) is a stronger acid

    than H2O (pKa = 15.7).

    more electronegative.
