Honors Chem Ch 4
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| orbital | a region of space around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is high |
| Noble Gas shortcut notation | a way of showing electron configuration that starts with the previous noble gas and continues until the desired atom is reached |
| Aufbau | the rule that states that you must fill orbitals of lower energy before filling orbitals of higher energy |
| Hund's rule | orbitals of equal energy are filled separately, then double up as needed |
| Pauli exclusion principle | no two electrons can have the same "address" so we use one up arrow and one down arrow for electrons in the same orbital |
| orbital notation | a way of showing the location of electrons by using arrows in boxes or on lines |
| electron configuration | a way of showing the arrangement of electrons in an atom such as 1s2 2s2 2p5 for fluorine |
| valence electrons | electrons in the highest (outermost) energy level (shell) that can be involved in forming chemical bonds |
| s orbital | a spherical shaped orbital that can hold two electrons |
| p orbital | a bowtie shaped orbital: three of these can hold two electrons each (total of 6 electrons) |
