Topics

Learning Objectives


Light
Line Spectra
Energy Levels
Electron Configuration
Orbitals
Shielding
Effective Nuclear Charge
Periodicity

4.1. Relate color, λ, speed, and energy of light being released or absorbed by atoms.
4.2. Use ionization energy data as evidence to support the claim that electrons occupy different shells.
4.3 Use Coulomb's Law to understand the interaction between the nucleus and the electron.
4.4. Describe the location and nature of electrons in an atom or ion in terms of: (a) energy level diagrams, (b) electron configuration, and (c) orbital shape.
4.5. Relate the periodic table to electron configurations.
4.6. Describe shielding and effective nuclear charge in atoms.
4.7 Predict trends; similarities, and differences of physical and chemical properties of elements using the periodic table and electron configuration. (e.g. ionization energy, radius, formulas, reactivity)
