“Orbital Filling Rules”
• Aufbau Principle
Electrons fill the lowest energy orbitals available
• Pauli Exclusion Principle
Orbitals can hold a maximum of two electrons; two
electrons in one orbital must have opposite spins.
• Hund’s Rule
Electrons fill equal energy orbitals one at a time until
each is occupied by one electron; Electrons in
singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.

Electron Configurations and Atomic Properties
A. Electron Arrangements in the First 18 Atoms on the
Periodic Table
Classifying Electrons
• Valence electrons – electrons in the outermost (highest)
principal energy level of an atom
• Core electrons – inner electrons
• Elements with the same valence electron arrangement show
very similar chemical behavior.

Electron Configurations and Atomic Properties
C. Atomic Properties and the Periodic Table
Metals
• Conduct electricity
• Left side of the periodic
table
• Form (+) ions; lose
electrons
Nonmetals
• Do not conduct electricity
• Right side of the periodic
table
• Form (-) ions; gain
electrons

C. Atomic Properties and the Periodic Table
Atomic Size
•Measured as the atomic
radius (distance from the
center of an atom to its
outermost electrons
Remember:
The locations of electrons
are not exact  atomic
radius is an approximation.

Atomic Radius
Trends:
1. Atoms increase in size as you move down a group on
the periodic table
Why?
• Outermost electrons are in higher energy levels. Orbital
size increases with energy level.

C. Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table
Trends (cont.) - Atomic Radius
2. Atoms decrease in size as you move from left to
right across the periodic table.
Why?
• It is the result of increasing nuclear charge going
left to right. As the number of protons increases,
there is a stronger attraction for the outermost
electrons. (which are located in the same energy
level. The electrons will be held closer to the
nucleus.

Ionization Energies
• Ionization Energy – energy required to remove an electron
from an individual atom (gas)

C. Atomic Properties and the Periodic Table
Ionization Energies
Trends:
1. I.E. increases as you go from left to right on the periodic
table
Why?
• Increasing nuclear charge as you move to the right; the
nucleus has a stronger attraction for the outer electrons
2. I.E increases as you move up a group on the periodic
table.
Why?
• Electrons are closer to the nucleus as you move up a
group; there is a stronger attraction to the nucleus

Ionization Energies
I.E. can also be explained in terms of atomic radius.
• The smaller an atom is…the greater the attraction
between the nucleus and outer electrons… and the
greater the I.E.
