This learning bite is for students who would like to extend their understanding of Electronic Configuration. This content moves beyond the Bohr model that was studied in Term 1 to the Quantum model (also called the sub-shell model). This is material that is typically taught in Year 11 (VCE Chemistry Unit 1).
Task 1
Read section 2.3 and 2.4 of the Heinemann Chemistry 1 textbook. Complete the table on page 31 and see if you can descibe the atoms electronic configuration using both the Bohr and Quantum models.

Task 3 Questions from Heinemann Chemistry 1 (p 34 and 35) - attempt Questions 29, 30, 31, 32. You will need to understand ideas such as ground state and excited state. Ask your teacher for guidance.
Task 4 Read Chapter 3.1 and 3.2 from Heinemann Chemistry 1 (p 37 - 42). This looks at the electronic configuration with respect to the periodic table. Attempt the questions on page 42. After this, you should be able to better understand the properties of the entire periodic table, not just the first 20 elements!
