Atomic Number
= # of protons (possibly # of electrons, if no charge on element)
Dalton's Atomic Theory
elements are composed of atoms. all atoms in one element are identical, but vary from other elements. compounds are composed of atoms of two or more elements. in chemical reactions atoms are not created/destroyed.
Mass Number
= # of protons + # of neutrons
Isotope
atoms of the same element (same number of protons) with different # of neutrons.
Average Atomic Mass
weighted average of all naturally occurring isotopes in one element. example: 12C is 98.9% 13C is 1.10% (.989)(12amu)+(.0110)(13amu)=12.01 amu

Frequency v

Maxwell
"visible light consists of electromagnetic waves" (c) or speed of light= 299,792,458 m/s ΔE = h x c / λ
Electromagnetic Spectrum
energy and wavelength are inversely proportional. energy and frequency are directly proportional.

"radiant energy emitted by an object at a certain temperature is dependent on its wavelength." (h) aka: planks constant h= 6.63x10^-34 E = h x v
Einstein
"light has the nature of particles and waves" photon- particle of light KE = h x v - w (<- work) v = w /h
Bhor
"light is emitted as one electron from an energy level moves to a lower energy level" E = -R x ( 1/n² - 1/n² ) initial final (R) aka: Rydberg's Constant R= 2.18x10^-18 (n) aka: principal quantum number
De Broglie
"electron energy is quantized because it is both a wave and a particle" so, λ = h / m x v (<- velocity here) when given mass (m), use this equation to calculate the wavelength. the more mass, the smaller the wavelength

Quantum Numbers
n, l, ml, ms
n
principal quantum number. tells the distance of an electron from the nucleus may be 1,2,3,4
l
angular momentum quantum number. tells the shape of the orbital the electron occupies at least n - 1 = l ( if n=0, l cannot be +1) *if going by block elements: S-Block= 0 P-Block= 1 D-Block= 2 F-Block= 3
ml
magnetic quantum number. tells the orientation of the orbital range: -l -> +l
ms
spin quantum number. tells the spin of the electron only +1/2 or -1/2
Pauli Exclusion Principle
"the set must have at least one difference." set of n,l,ml,ms can be 4,1,-1,+1/2
Hunds Rule
"the most stable arrangement of electrons in a sub shell is the one with the greatest number of parallel spins." so, pair up last if "_ _ _" fill the shell with one electron each then write in the counter electron. if set of n,l,ml,ms is 4,1,-1,+1/2 the magnetic spin (ms) must be -1/2 on the other in order to pair.
Afbau
"fill up electrons in the last energy orbitals first, then move up."
Orbitals
energy of orbitals depend on the principal quantum number (n). in a multielectron atom, energy depends on n AND l. strength: filled > empty > half filled > partial filled
Magnetic Properties of Orbitals
unpaired electron shells are paramagnetic paired electron shells are diamagnetic

Electron Affinity
negative of the energy change that occurs when an electron is accepted by an atom in the gaseous state to form an anion. if F (g) + e- -> F-(g) the ΔH = -328 so EA = +328 kJ/mol the trend on the periodic table is increasing as right and up. (forming a bond)
Electron Negativity
the availability to attract electrons toward itself in a chemical bond. (already in a bond)

Bond Lengths
single > double > triple
Bond Strengths
triple > double > single

Enthalpies of a Reaction

"covalent bonds form when orbitals of two atoms overlap" 1. must consist of opposing spins of bonding electrons. 2. increase in overlap = increase in stability/strength of the bond. 3. different atomic orbitals account for different bond angles.
