Models of the Atom

The evolution of Atomic Models
• Dalton (1766-1844): atom indivisible• J.J. Thomson (1856-1940):
– “Plum-pudding” model – negative electrons stuck in positively charged material
• Rutherford (1871-1937):– Electrons surround dense nucleus, rest of
atom is empty space
• Bohr (1885-1962):– “Planetary model,” electrons fixed in energy
levels around nucleus
The Quantum Mechanical Model
• Quantum Mechanical Model:
– Estimates the probability of finding an electron in a certain place using the Schrodinger equation.
– “Fuzzy cloud” model; where the cloud is more dense the probability of finding the electron is high, where the cloud is less dense the probability is low.
Energy Levels• Electrons move around the nucleus
in energy levels.
• Quantum of energy = amount of E required to move to a higher level.
• When they move towards the nucleus (down a level) they release energy
• When they move away from the nucleus (up a level) they require energy.
• The farther from the nucleus the energy level is, the more energy is required to move up a level (away from nucleus).
Energy Levels
• Quantum number (n) refers to an energy level– n = 1, 2, 3, 4, …7, values increase going away
from nucleus.– Each energy level fits a certain amount of
electrons:• Level 1 = 2 electrons• Level 2 = 8 electrons• Level 3 = 18 electrons• Level 4 = 32 electrons
Sublevels + Orbitals• Within each energy level there are sublevels; the
number of sublevels is equal to the quantum number.– Ex: Energy level 4 has 4 sublevels within it.
• A sublevel is made up of atomic orbitals: s, p, d, f– Orbital s fits 2 electrons total– Orbital p fits 6 electrons total– Orbital d fits 10 electrons total– Orbital f fits 14 electrons total– s fills up first, then p, then d, then f

Orbital Notation Rules1) Aufbau principle: electrons enter orbitals
of lowest energy first.
2) Pauli exclusion principle: an atomic orbital may describe at most 2 electrons.
3) Hund’s rule: one electron enters each orbital until ALL orbitals contain 1 electron with parallel spins.
Light and Atomic Spectra

(only pg. 372-375)
Electromagnetic Spectrum
• Energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation (radiant energy) travels in waves
• Waves transfer the energy from one place to another
• Ex: radio waves, TV, microwave, visible light, x-rays, gamma rays, infrared, UV
• All forms of radiant energy are part of the electromagnetic spectrum

Low energy High Energy
Wavelength + Frequency• Two main properties of electromagnetic
waves:
1) Frequency
2) Wavelength
• Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding peaks or troughs.
• Frequency is the number of wave cycles per second.
• Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency
• wavelength frequency

Wave lengthFrequency
Wave lengthFrequency
• Higher frequency waves (short wavelength) have high energy– Ex: gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet rays– Ex: Violet light in visible spectrum
• Low frequency waves (long wavelength) have low energy– Ex: radio waves, microwaves, infrared (heat)
waves– Ex: Red light in visible spectrum
Light and Atomic Spectra
• Electrons absorb energy and move to higher energy states/levels
• Electrons give off that energy in the form of light when they fall back down to lower energy states, or ground state.
• ALL electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum – 300 million meters per second or (3.0 x 108 m/s)
•When atoms are energized by an electric current they emit light.
•When this light is passed through a prism they produce an emission spectrum.
•Each element has its own unique atomic emission spectrum fingerprint
