Objectives
You will be able to write the atomic symbol for all elements of the periodic table.
You will be able to determine the amount of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an
element.

Atomic Number
Atoms are composed of identical protons, neutrons, and electrons
How then are atoms of one
element different from another
element?
Elements are different because they contain different numbers of PROTONS
The “atomic number” of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus
Atomic Number
Atomic number (Z) of an element is
the number of protons in the nucleus
of each atom of that element.

Objectives
You will be able to write the orbital
configuration, and electron configuration of a given element.
Given an electron configuration, you will be
able to determine which element on the
periodic table corresponds to the configuration.
You will be able to define what a valence
electron is.

General Rules
Pauli Exclusion Principle
No two electrons in the same atom can
have the same set of 4 quantum
numbers.
That is, each electron in an atom has a
unique address of quantum numbers.
General Rules
Pauli Exclusion Principle
Each orbital can hold TWO (2)
electrons with
opposite
spins.
General Rules: Filling Order
Aufbau
Principle
e
-fill the
lowest energy
orbitals first.

Hund’s Rule
Within a sublevel, place one e

Procedure
1. Write element symbol
2. Add valence electrons (dots) around
element symbol
How can we determine valence
electron with out writing the electron
configuration
If valence electrons are paired in an
orbital, pair them on the structure, if
not, do not pair (keep them single)
