1
Characteristics of Electrons
 Extremely small mass
 Located outside the nucleus
 Moving at extremely high speeds in a
sphere
 Have specific energy levels
LecturePLUS Timberlake
2
Energy of Electrons
 When atoms are heated, bright lines appear
called line spectra
 Electrons in atoms arranged in discrete
levels.
 An electron absorbs energy to “jump” to a
higher energy level.
 When an electron falls to a lower energy
level, energy is emitted.

B. What energy change takes place when the
electron moves from the third shell to the
second shell?

Bohr Model
• First model of the electron structure
• Gives levels where an electron is most likely
to be found
• Incorrect today, but a key in understanding
the atom

Quantum Mechanics
Describes the arrangement and space
occupied by electrons in atoms

Electron Levels (Shells)
 Contain electrons that are similar in
energy and distance from nucleus
 Low energy electrons are closest to the
nucleus
 Identify by numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6…..
 The first shell (1) is lowest in energy, 2nd
level next and so on 1<2<3<4
