Chapter 7 Atomic Structure and Periodicity

NOTE: Due to the end of the first quarter, Chapter 7 will be split into two parts: a focus on structure, and a focus on periodicity. 

Goals of chapter 7 include:

1. Calculations involving wavelength, frequency, and the energy of electron energy levels

2. Conceptual understanding of both the Bohr model of the atom and the Quantum Mechanical model of the atom, including quantum numbers

3. Writing electron configurations, both excited and ground state, for elements using nothing but a periodic table

4. Interpretation of mass spectroscopy (MS) data.

5. Interpretation of photoelectric spectroscopy (PES) data.

6. Understanding how electron and atomic structure relates to the concepts of atomic size, ionic size, and ionization energy.

7. Predicting trends in reactivity based on position in the periodic table.
