1. Atomic Structure Atomic Structure

2. Atomic Structure Atom y Each element is composed of smallest particles known as ‘ATOM’. y Atom the name is derived from Greek word Atom means - ‘Not to be cut’. DALTON’S THEORY OF ATOM J. Dalton developed his famous theory of atom in 1803. The main postulates of y Atom was considered as a samllest, dense and hard indivisible particle. y Each element consists of a specific type of atoms. y The properties of elements differ because of difference in kinds of atom contained in them. y This theory provides a satisfactory basis for law of chemical combinaiton. Limitations of Dalton’s Theory y Dalton’s theory fails to explain why atoms of different kinds should differ in valency and mass etc. y The discovery of isobars and isotopes showed that atoms of same elements have different atomic masses (isotopes) and atoms of different kinds may have same atomic masses (isobars). Concept Ladder Atoms is indestructible, i.e., it cannot be created or destroyed. Rack your Brain Why and how do atoms combine together to form compound atoms? Definition Each element is composed of smallest particles called ‘ATOM’. Concept Ladder Democritus was the person who first suggested the existence of ATOM & coined the name ATOMOS means Not to be cut or Indivisible.

3. Atomic Structure y The discovery of various sub-aomic particles like protons, electrons, X-rays etc. during late 19th century lead to idea that the atom was no longer an indivisible and smallest particle of the matter. DISCOVERY OF FUNDAMENTAL PARTICLES y Atom consist of several sub-atomic particles like neutron, proton, electron, neutrino, positron etc. Out of these particles, electron, proton and the neutron are called fundamental subatomic particles. (1) Electron y Electron discovered by J.J. Thomson (1897) and it is negatively charged particle. Cathode Ray Experiment y William Crookes in 1879 studied the electrical discharge in partially evacuated tubes called as cathode ray discharge tube. Concept Ladder R.S. Mullikan measured the charge on an electron by oil drop experiment. The charge on each electron is –1.602 × 10–19 C. Rack your Brain Why, cathode rays do not depend upon the nature of gas or the cathode meterial used in discharge tube? y Discharge tube is made of glass, about 60 cm long containing two thin pieces of metals known as electrodes, sealed in it. This is called crooke’s tube. Negative electrode is called as cathode and positive electrode is called anode.

4. Atomic Structure y When a gas enclosed at low pressure (~10–4 atm) in discharge tube is subjected to a high voltage (~10,000 V), invisible rays originating from the cathode and producing a greenish glow behind the perforated anode on the glass wall coated with phosphorescent material ZnS is observed. These rays Properties y Cathode rays travel in straight line. y Cathode rays produce mechanical effect, as they can rotate the wheel that placed in their path. y Cathode rays consist negatively charged particles called as electron. y Cathode rays travel with high speed. y Cathode rays can cause fluorescence. y Cathoderays heat the object on which they fall due to transfer of kinetic energy to the object. y When cathode rays fall on heavy metals, X-rays produced. y Cathode rays possess ionizing power that is they ionize the gas through which they pass. y The cathode rays produce scintillation on the photographic plates. y They can penetrate through thin metallic sheets.

5. Atomic Structure DISCOVERY OF FUNDAMENTAL PARTICLES Charge by mass ratio of Cathode Ray Electron is a low-mass, negatively charged particle. It can easily be swing by passing close to other electron or positive nucleus of an atom. With the help of variation in electric and magnetic fields the ratio was determined. The apparatus is shown below. The charge to mass ratio of the electron is given Charge to mass ratio of electron is given by: e/m = 1.758820 × 1011 C/kg Where; m = mass of electron in kg. e = magnitude of the charge of electron in coulombs. (2) Proton y Proton was discovered by Goldstein and it is positively charged particle. Anode Ray Experiment Canal Ray experiment is the experiment performed by German scientist Eugen Goldstein in 1886 that led to the discovery of the proton. The discovery of proton which happened after the discovery of the electron further strengthened the structure of the atom. In the experiment, Goldstein applied high voltage across a discharge tube which had a perforated cathode. A faint luminous ray was Concept Ladder Anode rays, e/m value is dependent upon the nature of the gas taken in the tube. It is maximum when gas present in the tube is hydrogen.

(3) Neutron y In 1932, Chadwick bombarded Be with a stream of a-particles (He+2). He noticed that penetrating radiations were produced which not affected by magnetic field and electric field. These radiationss consisted of neutral particles, which were called neutrons. Previous Year’s Question The discovery of neutron become very late because [AIPMT] (1) Neutrons are present in nucleus (2) Neutrons are highly unstable particles (3) Neutraons are chargeless (4) Neutrons do not move Concept Ladder Anode rays were observed by E.

Concept Ladder The colloquial nickname ‘plum pudding’ was soon attributed to Thomson’s model as distribution of electrons within its positively charged region of space reminded many scientists of raisins, then called ‘plums’. Rack your Brain What is the name of Thomson’s model?

9. Atomic Structure Limitations of Thomson’s Theory y An importnat drawback of this model is that the mas of the atoms is considered to be evenly spread over that atom. y It is a static model. It does not reflect the movement of electron. (2) Rutherford’s a-Scattering Experiment y Rutherford carried out a-particles scattering experiment by the bombardment of high speed a-particle on thin foil of gold, emitted from radius and gave the following observations, which was based on his experiment. y The angular deflections of scattered a-particles were studied with the help of moving microscope. Concept Ladder The relation between number of deflected particles and deflection angle q is    1 2 4 sin Where, m = deflected particles q = deflection angle Previous Year’s Question The nucleus of atom consists of [AIPMT] (1) Proton and neutron (2) Proton and electron (3) Neutron and electron (4) Proton, neturon and electron

10. Atomic Structure Observations Rutherford execute a number of experiments, involving the scattering of a-particles (He+2) by very thin foil of gold. Observations were: y Most of the a-particles (99%) passes through it, without any deviation or deflection. y Some of the a-particles were deflected through small angles. y Very few a-particles were deflected by large angles and occasionally an a-particle got deflected by 180°. Conclusions y Most of the a-particle (He+2) went straight through metal foil undeflected, it means that there must be very large empty space within atom. y Since few of the a-particles were defelcted from their original path through moderate angle; it was concluded that whole of the positive (+ve) charge is concentrated and the space occupied by this positive charge is very small in the atom. y When a-particles comes closer to this point, they bear a force of repulsion and diverge from their path. Concept Ladder An atom consists of positively charge center which is known as nucleus e– revolves around nucleus (+) like solar system Previous Year’s Question Rutherford experiment prove [AIPMT] (1) Electron (2) Proton (3) Atom (4) Nucleus

11. Atomic Structure y Positively (+ve) charged heavy mass which occupies only a small volume in an atom is known as nucleus. Nucleus is supposed to be present at the centre of atom. y A very few of the a-particles (He+2) suffered strong diversion on even returned on their path indicating that nucleus is rigid and a-particles (He+2) recoil due to direct collision with heavy positively charged mass. y As atomic number increases, the number of protons increases which increases the repulstuion and so deflection angle q increases. y Atom has two part (1) Nuclear part (2) Extra nuclear part ↓ ↓ Mass Size, volume Size of nucleus = 10–13 cm or 10–15 m = 1 fermi Size of atom = 10–8 cm or 10–10 m = 1 Å = = = = –13 –5N N –8 A A r D 10 10 r D 10 y Density of nucleus = + 1017 kg /m3 Limitations of Rutherford’s a-scattering experiment y It does not obey Maxwell theory of electrodynamics.

ATOMIC NUMBER AND MASS NUMBER (1) Atomic Number (Z) y It is always equal to number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom of the element. It also represents the number of electrons in the neutral atom. Ex: Number of protons in K is 19, so its atomic number (Z) = 19. (2) Mass Number (A) y The neutrons and protons present in nucleus of an atom are collectively known as nucleons. Atomic Weight y It is the average of average of weights of the all isotopes of that element. y An element have two isotopes Z1 and Z2, that of isotopes are W1 and W2 and their % of occurance in nature are X1 and X2 respectively then the average atomic weight of element is — avg. wt    W X W X X X 1 1 2 2 1 2 Previous Year’s Question The number of electrons and neurons of an element is 18 and 20 respectively.

The radiations when analysed with the help of spectroscope, spectral lines are obtained. Emission spectrum may be classified as : Concept Ladder Emission spectroscopy is referred to as optical emission spectroscopy because of the light nature of what is being emitted.

22. Atomic Structure (i) Continuous spectrum When sunlight is passed through a prism, it gets dispersed into continuous bands of dif- ferent colours. (ii) Line spectrum If the radiations obtained by the excitation of a substance are analysed with the help of a spectroscope, a series of thin bright lines of specific colours are obtained. There is dark space in between two consecutive lines. This type of spectrum is called line spectrum or atomic spectrum. (2) Absorption spectrum When white light of an incandescent sub- stance is passed through any other sub- stance, this substance absorbs the radiations of particular wavelength from the white light. On analysing the transmiited light we obtain a spectrum in which dark lines of specific wave lengths are observed. These lines constitute the absorption spectrum.

33. Atomic Structure Failure of Bohr Model y The theory was very successful in predicting and accounting the energies of line spectra of hydrogen i.e. one electron system. It could not explain theline spectra of atoms containing more than one electron. y Theory does not explain the presence of multiple spectral lines. y Theory does not explain splitting of spectral lines in magnetic field (Zeeman effect) and in electric field (Stark effect). Intensity of spectral lines was also not explained by the Bohr atomic model. y This theory could not explain uncertainty principle. The Bohr-Sommerfeld Theory For explaining fine structures of spectral lines Sommerfeld introduced two modification in Boht's theory. y According to Sommerfeld, path of an electron around nucleus, is an ellipse with nucleus at one of the foci. Circular orbit is special case of the ellipse. y Velocity of electron moving in an elliptical orbit varies at different parts of the orbit. This causes relavitistic variation in mass of moving electron. Therefore, he took into account relativistic variation of mass of electron with velocity. Therefore, this is known as relativistic atom model.

53. Atomic Structure RULES FOR FILLING OF ORBITALS IN AN ATOM (1) Aufbau Principle The principle states that electrons are added progresively to the various orbitals in the order of increasing energies. The electrons first occupy the lowest energy orbital avaiable to them and enter into higher energy orbitals only after lower energy orbitals are filled. (n +l) Rule (For multi electron species) The subshell with lowest (n + l) value is filled up first, when two or more subshell have same (n + l) value then the subshell with lowest value of n is filled up first. (2) Hund’s Maximum Multiplicity Rule According to the Hund’s rule orbital available in the subshell are first filled singly with parallel spin electron before they begin to pair this means that pairing of electrons occurs with the introduction of second electron. Concept Ladder Afbau principle proposed by Niels Bohr in the early 1920s, the principle was a tool for obtaining a picture of the atomic constitution, i.e., the arrangement of electrons on orbits around the nucleus. Previous Year’s Question In a given atom no two electrons can have the same valus for all the four quantum numbers.

Ex Notation form of Na — 1s22s22p63s1 Orbital diagram from of Na Condensed form of Na — [Ne] 3s1 STABILITY ORDER OF COMPLETELY FILLED AND HALF FILLED SUB-SHELLS The ground state electronic configuration of atom corresponds to the lowest energy state and gives higher stability. The electronic configuration of most of the atoms follows the basic rules. Certain elements such as Cr or Cu do not follow the rules because the two sub-shells 4s and 3d slightly differ in energy, i.e., 4s is slightly lower in energy than 3d orbital. So the valence electronic configuration are 3d54s1 and 3d104s1 respectivley, and not 3d44s2 and 3d94s2. The extra stability of half-filled and fully filled electronic configuration can be explained in Definition Distribution of electrons into orbitals of an atom is called its electronic configuration. Concept Ladder The Pauli exclusion principle helps explain a wide variety of physical phenomena. Electrons have to stack within an atom, i.e. have different spins while at teh same electron orbital.

55. Atomic Structure terms of symmetry and exchange energy. Symmetrical distribution of electrons The electronic configurations in which all the orbitals of the same sub-shell are either completely filled or half filled have relatively more symmetrical distribution of electrons. So their shielding of one another is relatively small and the electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus. Ex: Cr Exchage energy Exchange means shifing of electrons from one orbital to another within same sub-shell. Energy gets released when electrons exchange their positions and the energy is called exchange energy. For maximum number of exchanges, the maximum the energy released and the maximum the stabilisation. Half-filled and fully-filled degenerate orbitals have more number of elctron exchanges, and consequently, they have larger exchange energy of stabilisation.

61. Atomic Structure Chapter Summary Š Atom is the fundamental unit of matter which is further indivisible i.e. atom can neither be created nor be destroyed. Š Atomic theory of matter was first proposed by John Dalton. Š Discovery of subatomic particles namely electron and proton. Electron is discovered through cathode ray discharge tube experiment. They consist of negatively charged particles which are known as electrons. The characteristics of cathode rays is independent of electrodes and nature of gas present in cathode tube. Š Measurement of e/m for electron. The value of e/m has been found to be 1.7588 × 1011 C/Kg. Š Charge on an electron is 1.602 × 10–19 C. Š Mass of the e– can be calculated from the value of e/m and the value of e. Š The characteristics of anode rays or canal rays is dependent on nature of gas present in cathode tube. Charge to mass ratio of particle depends on the gas from which they generated. Š Atoms are made of three particles electron, protons and neutrons. Š Rutherford’s Model: Atom of an element consist of a small positive charged nucleus situated at the centre of the atom. Electrons are distributed in different concentric circular paths around the nucleus called orbits. Atomic radius is of the order 10–10 m while nucleus is 10–15 m. Š Atomic no. of an element = Total no. of protons present in the nucleus. Š Protons and neutrons present in nucleus collectively called nucleons. Š Mass no. of an element = No. of protons + No. of neutrons Š Isotopes: They have same atomic number but different atomic weight and have same chemical properties. Š Isobar: The different atoms which have same atomic masses but different atomic number are called as Isobar. Š Isotone: When elements have same number of electrons of neutron are called as Isotones. Š Isoelectronic: Ion or atom or molecule or species which have the same number of electrons are called as isoelectronic species. Š Electromagnetic Wave Radiation: The oscillating electrical/magnetic field are electromagnetic radiations. Both electrical and magnetic field are perpendicular to each other. Š Order of wavelength in electromagnetic spectrum Š Cosmic rays < l-rays < X-rays < Ultraviolet rays < Visible < Infrared < Micro waves < Radio waves. Š Plank’s Quantum Theory: Some important phenomena such as interference and diffraction are generally explained by wave nature of electromagnetic radiation..

62. Atomic Structure (i) Nature of emission of radiation from the surface of hot bodies (black - body radiation) (ii) Ejection of electrons from the surface of metal happens when radiation strikes it (photoelectric effect) Š Photoelectric Effect (P.E.E.): The ejection of electrons when light of certain minimum frequency called as threshold frequency is incident on a matel surface is called as photoelectric effect. Incident energy = Work function (φ) + K.K.max¬ Ei = φ + (K.E.)max hn = hn0 + (1/2) mev2 where me is mass of electron and v is the velocity associated with the ejected electron. Š Bohr’s Atomic Model: Energy of an electron remains constant as long as it stays in same orbit called stationary Orbit. A fixed amount of energy is associated with each stationary orbit and hence it is called Energy level. Energy of an electron: T E P E K E. . . . . .   2 T E Z n eV atom. . . /  13 6 2 2 Š Ground state (G.S.): In any single electron species n = 1 is called ground state. Š Excited state (E.S.): In single electron species n > 1 is called excited state. Š For the nth shell = (n - 1) the excited state Š Excitation energy: Energy required to excite an electron from its ground state to any excited state is called excitation energy. Š Wave Mechanical Model of An Atom: WAVE MECHANICAL MODEL OFAN ATOM: The Dual Nature of Matter (The Wave Nature of Electron) De-Broglie Equation (Dual nature of matter and radiation):       h mc h p h mv h m K E2 ( . .) If a charged particle Q is accelerated through potential difference V from rest then De-broglie wavelength is   h mQV2

63. Atomic Structure Š The circumference of the nth orbit is equal to n times the wavelength of the electron. 2prn = nl. Š Heisenberg’s Uncertainity Principle: It is impossible to obtain simultaneously both position and velocity (or momentum) of a microscopic particle with absolute accuracy.      x p h or m x v h or x v h m . . .   4 4 4   Š Quantum Mechanical Model: The Schrodinger Equation:              2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 8 8 0      x y z m h or m h E V   ( ) Š Quantum Numbers: (i) Principal quantum number (n): Number of orbitals present in nth shell = n2. The maximum number of electrons which can be present in a principal energy shell is equal to 2n2. (ii) Azimuthal quantum number (l): Number of orbitals in a given subshell = 2l + l Maximum number of electrons in particular subshell = 2 × (2l + l) Orbital angular momentum L h     2 1 1    ℏ  ( ) ( ) (iii) Magnetic quantum number (m): It describes the orientations of the subshells. It can have values from –l to +l including zero, i.e., total (2l + l) values. (iv) Spin quantum number (s): It describes the spin of the electron. It has values +1/2 and –1/2. (+) signifies clockwise spinning and (–) signifies anticlockwise spinning. Š Shape of The Orbitals: Nodal plane and Nodal surface :- The space where probability of finding an e– is zero. Nodal plane = l ; Nodal surface = n - l – 1 Š Stability of Completely Filled and Half-filled Subshells: Symmetrical distribution of electrons: Due to small shielding, the electrons are pulled closer to the nucleus and this decrease in energy leads to stability. Exchange energy: Electrons with the same spin have a tendency to exchange their positions when they are present in the degenerate orbitals of a subshell. The energy released during this exchange is called exchange energy
