Electron Configurations
The way electrons are arranged in atoms: 1. Every element has a specific electron configuration – NO two are alike 2. Very important = scientists know how an atom will react and how to manipulate that element

Three Rules for Electron Configuration
Aufbau Principle Pauli Exclusion Principle Hund’s Rule
7
a. Electrons enter the lowest energy level first
1. Aufbau Principle a. Electrons enter the lowest energy level first b. Orbitals do overlap – so Aufbau’s principle plays a very important part in writing electron configuration
8
c. so, 1s would fill first; followed by 2s, then 2p etc
Aufbau’s principle
9
2. Pauli Exclusion Principle
a. at most there is only 2 electrons per orbital b. Different spin for each c. there are four orbitals =s, p, d, f 2p 1s 2s
10
3. Hund’s Rule a. electrons do not pair up until they have to b. the empty bus seat Wrong Right
11
C. Writing electron configuration
1. Remember the 3 rules: Aufbau’s, Pauli’s and Hund 2. Orbitals DO NOT fill in a nice neat order; orbitals overlap 3. Must fill lowest energy FIRST (Aufbau’s) 4. 1st energy level is s; 2nd is s & p; 3rd is s, p & d; 4th is s, p, d & f
12
5. This is the order electrons fill up in going from lowest to highest energy level per Aufbau Principle 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f 6d 7p 6f 7d 7f

Group Practice Using the Build-an-Atom Game determine the electron configurations for the 36 elements in Lab C-1, Section 4 Table
33
E. Exceptions to the rules
1. Orbitals fill in order 2. Lowest energy to highest energy 3. Adding electrons can change the energy of an orbital 4. Half filled orbitals have a lower energy
34
5. Half filled orbitals make an atom more stable
6. this stability can change the order in which electrons fill up an orbital 7. so if you have 4s2 and 3d9 it is better to have 4s1 and 3d10 8. Because a full or half is more stable than a 7, 8, 9 9. BUT only in certain elements
35
10. Example Titanium - 22 electrons = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d2 Vanadium - 23 electrons = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d3 Chromium - 24 electrons = 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d4 But this is wrong for chromium!!
36
We expect chromium to be
1s22s22p63s23p64s23d4 BUT it is really: 1s22s22p63s23p64s13d5 Why? This gives two half orbitals Which means more stable atom And slightly lower energy
37
11. Another Exception Copper
Copper has 29 electrons so we expect: 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d9 But the actual configuration is: 1s22s22p63s23p64s13d10 This gives one filled orbital and one half filled orbital. Remember these exceptions: d4, d9
38
12. Writing e- Configs for Ions
For anions – add arrows to boxes and add to orbitals to written format Example – O2- 1s2 2s2 2p6 For cations – remove arrows from boxes and subtract from orbitals in written format Example – Li1+ 1s2 2s1 1s 2s 2p
39
1. What is the electron configuration for Strontium?
Group Practice 1. What is the electron configuration for Strontium? Sr has 38 electrons Electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s2 7s 7p 7d 7f 6s 6p 6d 6f 5s 5p 5d 5f 4s 4p 4d 4f 3s 3p 3d 2s 2p 1s 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2
40
2. What is the electron configuration of Cadmium? Cd has 48 electrons
2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 At this point we have 38 Need 10 more 10 2 6 10 2 4d10 6 2 6 2 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d10 2
41
3. What element has an electron configuration of:
1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d105p3 Answer: The element with 51 electrons Antimony
42
4. Determine electron configuration of Oxygen?
8 electrons 1s2 2s2 2p4 Answer: 1s22s22p4
43
5. How many valence electrons does oxygen have?
if the electron configuration is 1s22s22p4 then is has 6 valence electrons
44
Electron Configuration Shorthand
You can write an element’s electron configuration beginning with the closest Nobel Gas For example – Rather than write Strontium as 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s2 you could just write [Kr]5s2
45
Summary 1. Fill lower energy levels 1st (Aufbau Principle)
2. Remember 2 electrons per orbit (Pauli Exclusion Principle) 3. Electrons don’t pair up until they must - Fill “up” arrows 1st (Hund’s Rule) 4. Energy Levels = Periods = Rows 1st energy level has an s orbital 2nd has s and p = 8 3rd has s, p & d = th has s, p, d & f = 32 5. The order of electrons 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f 6d 6. Exceptions – chromium and copper (shift an electron between 4s and 3d orbitals for stability) 7. Can use shorthand by starting with closest Nobel Gas and building from there – ex. Strontium [Kr]5s2 8. Count superscripts to determine the element Valence electrons determined by counting electrons in highest energy level Can also show ions – add or subtract appropriate number of electrons
