Some facts#

  • The quantum state of an electron is described by a mathematical function called wave function.
  • The function describing the state of a single electron is called orbital. In the case of electrons in a single atom, we say about atomic orbital. If we think about electon inside chemical molecule, we say about molecular orbital.
  • The atomic orbital depends parametrically on few variables:
    • the so-called principal quantum number n, takes natural values 1,2,3,... Specifies the energy number of the electron and assigns electron shell. Often instead of numbers 1,2,3,... the letters K,L,M,N... are used,
    • the so-called azimuthal quantum number l, takes the integer values 0,1,2,..., n-1. Specifies the subshell number to which the electron is assigned and its orbital moment of momentum. Often instead of the numbers 0,1,2,... the letters s,p,d,f... are used,
    • the so-called magnetic quantum number m, takes integer values -l, ..., -1, 0, 1, ..., l. Specifies the number of the orbital angular momentum projection on the selected axis,
    • the so-called spin quantum number s, takes values -1/2 or +1/2. Specifies an additional, internal moment of momentum of the electron, which has no equivalent in classical physics.
  • According to Pauli's principle, in the atom there can not be 2 electrons in an identical quantum state, i.e. in a state described by all identical quantum numbers. For this reason, electrons in atoms take on successive states starting from the one with the lowest energy.
  • The electron configuration shows in which states individual electrons are located in atom. Visually we say that the electron configuration determines the distribution of electrons on the shells and subshells.
  • The electron configuration of the chemical element describes the ground state, i.e. the state in which all electrons have the lowest possible energy. When the atom is in excited state, one or more electrons go to a higher energy state, so electron configuration of the excited atom is different.
