Where is the Electron?In the quantum mechanical model, the electrons are found outside the nucleus. To describe an electron’s location, we can includes Its Energy Level Its Sublevel Its Atomic Orbital

Principle Energy LevelsThe first horizontal row of the periodic table represents the first or (n=1) principle energy level. Represented by the letter, nn = 1  First Energy Level Each new row on the periodic table starts a new energy level.Each energy level has a different number of sublevels, a different number of orbitals, and a different number of electrons.

The Bohr Model

SublevelsBased on the number of elements in our Periodic Table, there are four sublevels. s, p, d, f Each sublevel has a unique shape . The size of the sublevel depends on the energy level. Higher Energy Level = Bigger Sublevel

s-Sublevelsphere

p -Sublevel dumb bell This is only one of the p-sublevel atomic orbitals.

Since there are 3 orbitals in the p-Sublevel:

d-Sublevel Don’t need to memorize these!

f- Sublevel Don’t need to memorize these!

Summary of the Sublevels Sublevel Number of Atomic Orbitals Maximum Number of Electrons s 1 2 p 3 6 d 5 10 f 7 14

Atomic Orbitals All electrons are located in an atomic orbital or orbital . An atomic orbital represents the area in which there is a 90% chance of finding an electron. Each atomic orbital can hold two electrons.Inside these orbitals, electrons take random and unpredictable paths.

Short Hand Notation Hints To find the noble gas, look at the noble gas from the previous row or the row above the element. The energy level or coefficient of the s and p -sublevel is equal to the row or period number. The energy level or coefficient of the d-sublevel is one less than the period number and for the f-sublevel two less than the period number.
