Atomic Mass Unit (amu) correct answers 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom


Bohr Model correct answers 1) Electrons revolve around the atomic nucleus in discrete orbitals
2) The position of any particular electron is defined by its orbital
3) The electron energies of electrons are quantized - electrons are permitted to have only specific
values of energy


Wave-Particle Model correct answers 1) Electron exhibits both wave-like and particle-like
characteristics
2) Position of an electron is described by a probability distribution or electron cloud


Quantum Numbers correct answers Set of numbers used to completely describe an electron


Principle Quantum Number correct answers 1) Symbolized by "n"
2) Designates shell
n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Letter = K, L, M, N, O...


Second Quantum Number correct answers 1) Symbolized by "l"
2) Designates subshell
3) Electron orbital shapes depend upon this
4) Range from 0 to (n - 1)
l = 0, 1, 2, 3...
Subshell = s, p, d, f


Third (Magnetic) Quantum Number correct answers 1) Symbolized by "ml"

, 2) Determines number of electron orbitals for each subshell
3) It's an integer between -l and +l, including 0
1 s orbital
3 p orbitals
5 d orbitals
7 f orbitals


Fourth Quantum Number correct answers 1) Symbolized by "ms"
2) It's the spin moment and is oriented either up or down (2 electrons per electron orbital)
3) +1/2 for spin up, -1/2 for spin down


Pauli Exclusion Principle correct answers No two electrons in the same atom can have the same
set of four quantum numbers


Orbital Filling Sequence correct answers Electrons tend to occupy the lowest available energy
states.


Valence Electrons correct answers 1) Most available for bonding and tend to control chemical
properties
2) Present in the outer-most shell
3) For example, When bonding with iron (Fe), even though the 4s subshell has less energy than
the 3d subshell, the iron atom loses the 4s electrons first because they're on the outer-most shell


Electronegativity correct answers 1) Ranges from 0.9 to 4.1
2) Smaller values tend to give away electrons while larger values tend to acquire electrons


Primary Bonding Type: Ionic correct answers 1) Occurs between metallic and nonmetallic
elements
2) Requires electron transfer
