Important – Read Before Using Slides in Class
Instructor: This PowerPoint presentation contains photos and figures from the
text, as well as selected animations and videos. For animations and videos to
run properly, we recommend that you run this PowerPoint presentation from
the PowerLecture disc inserted in your computer. Also, for the mathematical
symbols to display properly, you must install the supplied font called
“Symb_chm,” supplied as a cross-platform TrueType font in the
“Font_for_Lectures” folder in the "Media" folder on this disc.
If you prefer to customize the presentation or run it without the
PowerLecture disc inserted, the animations and videos will only run properly if
you also copy the associated animation and video files for each chapter onto
your computer. Follow these steps:
1. Go to the disc drive directory containing the PowerLecture disc, and
then to the “Media” folder, and then to the
“PowerPoint_Lectures” folder.
2. In the “PowerPoint_Lectures” folder, copy the entire chapter
folder to your computer. Chapter folders are named “chapter1”,
“chapter2”, etc. Each chapter folder contains the PowerPoint Lecture
file as well as the animation and video files.
For assistance with installing the fonts or copying the animations and
video files, please visit our Technical Support at
http://academic.cengage.com/support or call (800) 423-0563. Thank you.

Arrangement of
Electrons in Atoms
Electrons in atoms are arranged as
SHELLS (n)
SUBSHELLS (s)
ORBITALS (ms)

Arrangement of
Electrons in Atoms
Each orbital can be assigned no
more than 2 electrons!
This is tied to the existence of a 4th
quantum number, the electron
spin quantum number, ms.

“spin.” Two spin directions are given by

•Substances with
unpaired electrons are

Measuring Paramagnetism
Paramagnetic: substance is attracted to a
magnetic field. Substance has unpaired electrons.
Diamagnetic: NOT attracted to a magnetic field

Pauli Exclusion Principle
No two electrons in the
same atom can have
the same set of 4
quantum numbers.
That is, each electron has a
unique address.

Assigning Electrons to Atoms
• Electrons generally assigned to orbitals of
successively higher energy.
• For H atoms, E = - C(1/n2). E depends only
on n.
• For many-electron atoms, energy depends
on both n and s.
•
See Active Figure 7.1 and Figure 7.2
© 2009 Brooks/Cole - Cengage
Assigning Electrons to Subshells
PLAY MOVIE
© 2009 Brooks/Cole - Cengage
• In H atom all subshells
of same n have same
energy.
• In many-electron atom:
a) subshells increase in
energy as value of n + s
increases.
b) for subshells of same n
+ s, subshell with lower
n is lower in energy.

Effective Nuclear Charge, Z*
• Z* is the nuclear charge experienced by
the outermost electrons. See Figure 7.3
• Explains why E(2s) < E(2p)
• Z* increases across a period owing to
incomplete shielding by inner electrons.
• Estimate Z* = [ Z - (no. inner electrons) ]
• Charge felt by 2s e- in Li
Z* = 3 - 2 = 1
• Be
Z* = 4 - 2 = 2
• B
Z* = 5 - 2 = 3

• Because electrons are
added further from the
nucleus, there is less

• Size goes DOWN on going
