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.

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.

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).

The equilibrium becomes more favorable as Abecomes better able to bear a negative charge.
Another way of looking at it is that H becomes morepositive as the atom to which it is attached becomes

atoms in the same group of the periodic table.

Ionization becomes more favorable if electrondelocalization increases in going from left to right in
the equation.
Resonance is a convenient way to show electron
delocalization.

Generalization
Stronger acid + Stronger base Weaker acid + Weaker base
The equilibrium in an acid-base reaction is favorableif the stronger acid is on the left and the weaker acid is
on the right.

Arrhenius
- An acid ionizes in water to give protons. A baseionizes in water to give hydroxide ions.
Brnsted-Lowry
- An acid is a proton donor. A base is a protonacceptor.
Lewis
- An acid is an electron pair acceptor. A base is anelectron pair donor.
