Topic: Unit 4

The electronic structure of atoms

 

 
Electron configuration of atoms

 

 

Valance Electron

 

 

Lewis Electron-Dot Diagram

 

Examples:

The electron cloud model and electron movement

Levels, sublevels and orbitals make up electron positioning

An atoms chemical reactivity is based on valency electrons

Lewis Diagrams are used to show an atoms valence electrons

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enduring Understanding (s): Electron positioning is crucial to chemical stability.  _________________________________________________

 

 

Essential Question (s): Explain the early models of the atom and how they relate to the Quantum-mechanical model.  What does an electron configuration tell you about an atom?  What is the connection between the valence electrons of an atom and a Lewis Electron dot diagram?   _______________________________________________________
