Review of electron configurations
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Said that electrons are placed in the lowest energy level first | Aufbau |
| Said that electrons will have the same spin until each atomic orbital has 1 electron | Hund |
| Said that 2 is the max # of electrons in an atomic orbital; must have opposite spins | Pauli |
| Max # of electrons in the f block | 14 |
| Max # of electrons in the s block | 2 |
| Max # of electrons in the d block | 10 |
| Max # of electrons in the p block | 6 |
| Number of orbitals in the s block | 1 |
| Number of orbitals in the f block | 7 |
| Number of orbitals in the p block | 3 |
| Number of orbitals in the d block | 5 |
| Only element already stable with just 2 valence electrons | Helium [He] |
| visual representation of only valence electrons | Lewis Dot structure |
| Only group with a full s and full p orbitals outer shell | 8A (Noble Gases) |
| visual representation of all the electrons an atom has | electron configuration |
| outermost electrons ; highest energy level | valence |
| inner electrons; closest to the nucleus; lower energy | core |
| region in space where you expect to find electrons | atomic orbital |
| change in number of electrons | ion |
