CHAPTER 2 ATOMIC STRUCTURE AND INTERATOMIC BONDING
Most of the properties of solid materials depend on:
geometrical atomic arrangementsinteractions among constituent atoms
or molecules

~ 400 BC - Democritus
Ancient Greek philosopherDemocritus coined the term átomos which means "uncuttable" or "the smallest indivisible particle of matter".
Structure of MatterPhysical world
“VOID + BEING”

1803 – John Dalton
English instructor and natural philosopher “Each element consists of atoms of single unique type and can join to form chemical compounds.”Originator of the modern atomic theory
1869 - MendeleevBuilding upon earlier discoveries by scientists, Mendeleev published the first functional PERIODIC TABLE. Certain chemical properties of elements repeat periodically when arranged by atomic number.

Today: Periodic Table of the Elements The Structure of the Atom
Status report end of the 19th centuryAtom is electrically neutral Negative charge carried by electrons Electron has very small mass
bulk of the atom is positive, most mass resides in positive charge

Question: what is the spatial distribution of charge inside an atom?
Models of Atom

1897 – Sir J. J. Thomson
Discovered the electron (1906 Nobel Prize in Physics).
Plum Pudding (1904): “The atom as being made up of electrons swarming in a sea of positive charge.
Results:Majority of a particles transmitted (pass through) or deflected through small anglesTiny fraction deflected through large angles
1909 – E. RutherfordTested the Plum Pudding Model.

Conclusion:Disproved the Plum-Pudding ModelLarge amount of the atom's charge and mass is concentrated into a small region Atom was mostly empty space
1909 – E. Rutherford

Objections to Rutherford modelThe laws of classical mechanics predict that the electron will release electromagnetic radiationwhile orbiting a nucleus. Because the electron would lose energy, it would gradually spiral inwards, collapsing into the nucleus. This atom model is unsuccessful, because it predicts that all atoms are unstable.
1909 – E. Rutherford
1912 – N. Bohr
Many phenomena involving electrons in solids could not be explained in terms of CLASSICAL MECHANICS.We need QUANTUM MECHANICS…
Quantum mechanics (QM) is a set of principles describing the physical reality at the atomic level of matter (molecules and atoms) and the subatomic (electrons, protons, and even smaller particles).
Bohr Postulates for the Hydrogen Atom
1. Rutherford atom is correct 2. Classical EM theory not applicable to orbiting e-3. Newtonian mechanics applicable to orbiting e-4. Eelectron = Ekinetic + Epotential
5. e- energy quantized through its angular momentum: L = mvr = nh/2π, n = 1, 2, 3,…
6. Planck-Einstein relation applies to e-transitions:∆E = Ef-Ei= hf = hc/λc = νλ

An electron in Li2+ falls from n = 2 to the ground state.
(a) Calculate the wavelength of the emitted photon.
(b) Is it in the visible range of electromagnetic spectrum?

Hydrogen SpectrumAtomic spectra: When an electric discharge (spark) passes through a gas(H2), it excites the electrons of the atoms. The atoms then emit the absorbed energy in the form of light as the electrons return to a lower energy state. When a narrow beam of light is passed through a prism, a spectrum of colors as individual lines can be seen. This is called atomic spectrum or emission spectrum.

(a) Calculate the wavelength of the emitted photon.
(b) Is it in the visible range of electromagnetic spectrum?
1913 - Sommerfeld
German theoretical physicistModified the Bohr Model“suppose we have plurality of orbits” – a shell containing multiple orbits: ORBITALS How to capture these new ideas quantitatively?We need new quantum numbers: n, l, m, s
Shapes of Orbitals

What is the filling sequence of electrons in orbitals by n, l, m, s is not adequate?
AUFBAU PRINCIPLE3 principles:
1. Pauli Exclusion Principle
2. Electrons fill orbitalsfrom lowest en. to highest en.
3. Hund’s rule

• Why? Valence (outer) shell usually not filled completely.
• Most elements: Electron configuration not stable.

Wave mechanics to arrive at same place: E=E(n,l,m,s)
The Bohr model – significant limitationsResolution: Wave-mechanical model(electron is considered to exhibit both wave-like and particle-
like characteristics).De Broglie: “If a photon which has no mass, can behave as a particle, does an electron which has mass can behave as a wave (1920)?” λ = h/p = h/mvHeisenberg: Uncertainty Principle
“I don’t know where any of one of electrons is, but I can tell you an average where any of one of them is likely to be”Schrodinger
