Vocab and Terms
Term | Definition |
---|---|
Thomson's atomic model | Plum pudding model - positive ball with negative 'plums' floating inside. |
Rutherford | Alpha ray particles backstattering - Au atoms mostly empty, nucleus is positive. Planetary model OK, but said electrons would spiral into nucleus. |
2 slit experiment | Wave shot at two slits - waves form from both, and form interference pattern. This arrives from both constructive and destructive interference. |
Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle | Principle that says you can't know both the position and momentum of an electron. |
n - principle | 1st quantum number, describes energy (1, 2, 3, ...) |
l - angular momentum | 2nd quantum number, describes orbital (s, p, d, ...) |
m - magnetic | 3rd quantum number, describes behavior of atom (-l to +l) |
Radial nodes | Type of electron nodes that depend on distance from nucleus. (n-1-l) |
Angular nodes | Type of electron nodes that depend on angle from nucleus. (l) |
Aufbau principle | Principle that says you fill energy states 1 electron at a time |
Pauli principle | Principle that says no electron can have the same quantum numbers, and fill up one energy level at a time |
Hund's principle | Principle that says you fill up orbital subshells one electron at a time |
Isoelectronic atoms | Atoms with the same electron configuration |
Ionization energy | Amount of energy needed to remove an electron from the outermost shell of an atom |
Electron affinity | Change in energy of atom when electron is added to form negative ion |
Electronegativity | Tendency of an atom to attract a pairing bond of electrons |
Atomic size | Radius of atom. Generally increases as you move to the left of periodic table because nucleus positive charge increases, but shell size remains the same. |
Formal charge | Calculated: # e's in full shell - # valence - # bonds. Used to determine optimal Lewis structure |
Steric number | Calculated: # atoms bonded to central atom + # lone pairs on central atom. Used to determine geometry of molecule |
Le Chatelier's principle | Principle that says reaction will go towards side that reduces stress (that will lead to a value that leads Q to K) |
Electrostatic (Polar) | Type of interactions between molecules with a net dipole |
Electrostatic (Non-polar) | Type of interactions between molecules without a net dipole |
Induction (Dipole-Induced-Dipole) | Type of interactions between non-polar and polar molecules. |
Dispersion (Induced Dipole-Induced Dipole, London Forces) | Type of interactions between non-polar molecules that create small lasting dipoles (4th strongest) |
Hydrogen bonding | Type of interactions between nitrogen / oxygen / fluorine with hydrogen |
Arrhenius acid | Acid base - high amounts of H30+ - used in |
Arrhenius base | Acid base - low amounts of H30+ - used in |
Bronsted-lowry acid | Acid base - donates H+ |
Bronsted-lowry base | Acid base - accepts H+ |
Lewis acid | Acid base - accepts e- |
Lewis base | Acid base - donates e- |
Acidic buffer | Solution made out of a weak acid and its conjugate base |
Basic buffer | Solution made out of a weak base and its conjugate acid |
Oxidation number | Calculated: type of element. Adds up to atomic / molecule total charge. |
Galvanic cell | Type of cell that is spontaneous |
Electrolytic cell | Type of cell that is non-spontaneous and requires electricity to be driven |
Coordination complexes | Type of molecules formed by center transition metal and ligand molecules. |
Coordination # | Calculated: # of ligands attached to central transition metal |
Chelating ligand | Type of ligand that binds to central transition metal at multiple sites (monodentate, bi, tri, tetra, etc.) |
Geometric isomers | Type of coordination complexes that can be rearranged and keep same molecule |
Optical isomers | Type of coordination complexes that are non-superimposable mirror images of e/o |
