  1. Line Spectra and the Bohr Model

  2. Flame Test Colors • Color’s are emitted when atoms are given energy • The actual color seen is a mixture of many colors

  3. Atoms Give Off Colors of Light Atomic Emission Spectrum • AES: The set of frequencies (colors of light) emitted by atoms of an element • Each element’s atomic emission spectrum is unique (Fingerprint of the element) • Line Spectrum http://www.colorado.edu/physics/2000/quantumzone/index.html

  4. Observing the Spectrum • Spectrascope: Acts like a prism to split light into its actual colors • Our eye sees the colors given off all mixed together • 2 colors could look the same to us, but have vastly different “line spectra”

  5. Bohr’s Model of the Atom • Atom has distinct energy levels, (Orbits) starting with n=1 then n=2, n=3… • Ground State: lowest energy level • When excited, it jumps to a higher state (excited state) • When it goes back down, it emits energy (light) • ‘Step ladder’ Small orbit = low energy state Large orbit = high energy state

  6. Figure 4.16 – Prentice Hall Chemistry Bohr’s Line Spectra • Energy of light given off is due to how far the electron is ‘falling’ through levels • Not all of it is visible • Different jumps give different wavelengths • Grouped in “series” • Lyman series: Emits light in the UV region • Balmer series: Emits light in the visible spectrum • Paschen series: Emits light in the IR region

  7. Glowing • Other ways electrons emit light: • Fluorescence • Atoms in the molecule absorb certain wavelengths of light and emit it back out • Demo: Needs UV light to absorb/emit • The reaction is FAST • Photoluminescence (foh-tuh-loo-muh-nes-uh ns) • Atoms absorb wavelengths of light and emit – however the reaction is SLOW • Charging your glowing object • Chemiluminescence • Glowsticks

  8. h mv  = Electrons act like waves? • Louis de Broglie • Radiant Energy waves (light) behave like a particle…. Could the opposite be true? • Particles act like waves? • Predicted that all moving matter has wave characteristics based on it’s velocity and mass • Works for all matter traveling at speed v, only relevant to electrons however

  9. De Broglie Waves • What is the wavelength of an electron moving with a speed of 5.97 x 106 m/s? • (The mass of the electron is 9.11 x 10–28 g) • Basis for electron microscope

  10. Modern Quantum Theory of Electrons Probability and Orbitals

  11. Werner Heisenberg • Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle - It is impossible to know both exact speed and location of an electron vs

  12. Bohr wasn’t right… • Bohr’s equations only worked for hydrogen atoms – (1 electron) • Too simple! 2 important Bohr ideas: 1. Electrons exist only in certain discrete energy levels (described by their quantum #’s) 2. energy is involved in moving an electron from one level to another

  13. Quantum Theory What do people think…. • Niels Bohr: “Fundamentally incomprehensible” • Richard Feynman (nobel prize winner) “If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don’t understand quantum mechanics”

  14. Describing Electrons using Orbitals • Atomic Orbital: • A region around the nucleus of an atom where an electron with a given energy is likely to be found • Different from ORBIT (the circular ring)

  15. Orbitals • Unlike Bohr’s model, the orbital makes no attempt to describe the electron’s path • Recall Bohr’s levels (quantum #’s: n=1, n=2, …) • Orbital Theory does the same but has 3 quantum #’s • N, l, ml

  16. The 3 Quantum #’s 1) Principal Quantum Number N • Can have a positive integer value n=1, 2, 3, etc • As n increases, the orbital gets larger and increases in energy 2) Azimuthal Quantum Number L (subshell) • Can have integral values from 0 to n-1 for each value of n • Defines the shape of the orbital 3) Magnetic Quantum Number Ml (orbital) • Has integral value from -L to L

  17. Sounds very confusing… • Where do you live? • State, City, Street Name, House # • Electrons are identified the same way.. • Principle energy level, sublevel, orbital • Principle energy levels (1,2,3…) • Sublevel (s, p, d, f) • Orbitals

  18. Values of N, L, and Ml Textbook problems 6.49-6.54

  19. Within the sublevels… • S has 1 orbital • P has 3 orbitals • D has 5 orbitals • F has 7 orbitals • 2 electrons can fit in each orbital (box) Why?

  20. SAMPLE EXERCISE 6.6 Subshells (a) Predict the number of subshells in the fourth shell, that is, for n = 4. (b) Give the label for each of these subshells. (c) How many orbitals are in each of these subshells? • Solution • (a) There are four subshells in the fourth shell, corresponding to the four possible values of l (0, 1, 2, and 3). • (b) These subshells are labeled 4s, 4p, 4d, and 4f. • (c) • There is one 4s orbital (when l = 0, there is only one possible value of ml: 0). • There are three 4p orbitals (when l = 1, there are three possible values of ml: 1, 0, and –1). • There are five 4d orbitals (when l = 2, there are five allowed values of ml: 2, 1, 0, –1, –2). • There are seven 4f orbitals (when l = 3, there are seven permitted values of ml: 3, 2, 1, 0, –1, –2, –3).

  21. Principle Energy Level • How many sublevels are there in each energy level? • N=1 has 1 sublevel (s) • 1s • N=2 has 2 sublevels (s and p) • 2s & 2p • N=3 has 3 sublevels (s, p, and d) • 3s, 3p, & 3d • N=4 has 4 sublevels (s, p, d, and f) • 4s, 4p, 4d, & 4f

  22. Practice Exercise 2 (a) What is the designation for the subshell with n = 5 and l = 1? (b) How many orbitals are in this subshell? (c) Indicate the values of ml for each of these orbitals. Answers:(a) 5p; (b) 3; (c) 1, 0, –1

  23. Node Radial Probability Functions • The probability that an electron (with a certain energy) will be a distance “r” from the nucleus

  24. Shapes of orbitals • S orbital • “Sphere” • P orbital • “Dumbbell” • D orbital • “Flower” What happens to the sphere as “n” gets bigger?

  25. Quiz on Friday!! • Shapes of orbitals • Know what they are • Draw the s, p, and d orbitals • Quantum #’s questions • Be able to determine & write them

  26. Check-Up Questions • Give the numerical values of n and l for each: • A) 2p • B) 2s • C) 4f • D) 5d • Solution: • A) n=2, l=1 • B) n=2, l=0 • C) n=4, l=3 • D) n=5, l=2

  27. Sample Test Questions… 1) The __________ quantum number defines the shape of an orbital. • a) spin • b) magnetic • c) principal • d) azimuthal • e) psi 2) The n = 1 shell contains ___ orientations of p orbitals. All the other shells contain ___ orientations of p orbitals. • a) 3, 6-9 • b) 0,3 • c) 6,2 • d) 3,3 • e) 2,6 3) In a px orbital, the subscripts x denotes the __________ of the orbital. • a) energy • b) spin of the electrons • c) probability of the shell • d) size of the orbital • e) axis along which the orbital is aligned

  28. Fillin’ ‘em up with electrons • Aufbau Principle • Add one electron at a time to the lowest energy level available • The 4th Quantum # (sorry) • Msdescribes the “spin” of an electron • Possible values: +½ or –½ • Pauli Exclusion Principle • No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers (n, l, ml, and ms) • This means no more than 2 electrons per orbital

  29. Using Pauli… What is the set of quantum #’s for the last electron? N=2, L=0, Ml=0, Ms= +½

  30. Electron Configurations • The way electrons are distributed among orbitals • Ground state: most stable electron configuration • If not for Pauli, they would all crowd the 1s… but they can’t

  31. 3d 3d Sneaky! 4p 3d 3p 2p 2p 3p 3d 4p 3d 3p 4p 2p Energy of each level • The levels will fill up by lowest energy first (electrons are lazy) ENERGY 4s 3s 2s 1s
