Dialogue: 0,0:00:10.50,0:00:12.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that's the Bohr model of the electron. Dialogue: 0,0:00:12.22,0:00:13.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I'll keep reviewing it, Dialogue: 0,0:00:13.89,0:00:14.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,just because I think it's an important point. Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.89,0:00:16.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If that's the nucleus, remember, Dialogue: 0,0:00:16.05,0:00:17.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's just a tiny, tiny, tiny dot Dialogue: 0,0:00:17.82,0:00:21.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if you think about the entire volume of the actual atom. Dialogue: 0,0:00:21.57,0:00:24.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And instead of the electron being in orbits around it, Dialogue: 0,0:00:24.61,0:00:29.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which would be how a planet orbits the sun. Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.11,0:00:30.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Instead of being in orbits around it, Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.03,0:00:33.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's described by orbitals, Dialogue: 0,0:00:33.48,0:00:36.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which are these probability density functions. Dialogue: 0,0:00:36.59,0:00:39.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So an orbital-- let's say that's the nucleus Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.77,0:00:42.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it would describe, Dialogue: 0,0:00:42.19,0:00:45.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if you took any point in space around the nucleus, Dialogue: 0,0:00:45.50,0:00:48.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the probability of finding the electron. Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.42,0:00:53.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So actually, in any volume of space around the nucleus, Dialogue: 0,0:00:53.81,0:00:54.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it would tell you the probability Dialogue: 0,0:00:54.79,0:00:56.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of finding the electron within that volume. Dialogue: 0,0:00:56.95,0:00:58.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so if you were to just take Dialogue: 0,0:00:58.77,0:01:00.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a bunch of snapshots of electrons Dialogue: 0,0:01:00.38,0:01:03.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-- let's say in the 1s orbital. Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.17,0:01:05.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that's what the 1s orbital looks like.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:14.12,0:01:16.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you were to just take a number of snapshots of electrons.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:30.53,0:01:32.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then the electron is there. Dialogue: 0,0:01:32.33,0:01:34.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then the electron is there. Then it's there. Dialogue: 0,0:01:34.14,0:01:35.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And if you kept doing the snapshots, Dialogue: 0,0:01:35.37,0:01:37.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you would have a bunch of them really close. Dialogue: 0,0:01:37.97,0:01:40.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then it gets a little bit sparser as you get out, Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.96,0:01:44.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as you get further and further out away from the electron. Dialogue: 0,0:01:44.99,0:01:47.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But as you see, you're much more likely Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.21,0:01:50.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to find the electron close to Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.70,0:01:54.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the center of the atom than further out. Dialogue: 0,0:01:54.63,0:01:56.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Although you might have had an observation with the electron Dialogue: 0,0:01:56.17,0:01:58.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,sitting all the way out there, or sitting over here. Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.68,0:01:59.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it really could have been anywhere, Dialogue: 0,0:01:59.83,0:02:01.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but if you take multiple observations, Dialogue: 0,0:02:01.51,0:02:04.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you'll see what that probability function is describing. Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.92,0:02:07.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's saying look, there's a much lower probability of Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.27,0:02:11.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,finding the electron out in this little cube of volume space Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.76,0:02:14.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than it is in this little cube of volume space. Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.95,0:02:16.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And when you see these diagrams Dialogue: 0,0:02:16.67,0:02:18.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that draw this orbital like this. Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.64,0:02:23.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Let's say they draw it like a shell, like a sphere. Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.83,0:02:25.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I'll try to make it look three-dimensional. Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.60,0:02:27.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So let's say this is the outside of it, Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.31,0:02:29.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the nucleus is sitting some place on the inside. Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.99,0:02:32.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They're just saying -- they just draw a cut-off Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.78,0:02:35.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-- where can I find the electron 90% of the time? Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.02,0:02:36.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So they're saying, OK, I can find the electron Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.26,0:02:38.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,90% of the time within this circle, Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.99,0:02:40.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if I were to do the cross-section. Dialogue: 0,0:02:40.71,0:02:42.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But every now and then the electron Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.21,0:02:44.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can show up outside of that, right? Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.09,0:02:45.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because it's all probabilistic. Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.06,0:02:46.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this can still happen. Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.39,0:02:47.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You can still find the electron Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.74,0:02:51.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if this is the orbital we're talking about out here. Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.14,0:02:52.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Right? Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.29,0:02:54.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then we, in the last video, we said, Dialogue: 0,0:02:54.20,0:02:57.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,OK, the electrons fill up the orbitals Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.05,0:03:05.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from lowest energy state to high energy state. Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.97,0:03:09.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You could imagine it. If I'm playing Tetris-- Dialogue: 0,0:03:09.54,0:03:10.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,well I don't know if Tetris is the thing-- Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.95,0:03:14.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but if I'm stacking cubes, I lay out cubes from low energy, Dialogue: 0,0:03:14.47,0:03:15.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if this is the floor, Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.46,0:03:17.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I put the first cube at the lowest energy state. Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.73,0:03:21.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And let's say I could put the second cube Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.02,0:03:21.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at a low energy state here. Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.95,0:03:27.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I only have this much space to work with. Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.65,0:03:28.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I have to put the third cube Dialogue: 0,0:03:28.77,0:03:30.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at the next highest energy state. Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.51,0:03:32.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In this case our energy would Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.05,0:03:33.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,be described as potential energy, right? Dialogue: 0,0:03:34.00,0:03:36.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is just a classical, Newtonian physics example. Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.37,0:03:39.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But that's the same idea with electrons. Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.56,0:03:44.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Once I have two electrons in this 1s orbital Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.47,0:03:49.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-- so let's say the electron configuration of helium is 1s2 Dialogue: 0,0:03:49.41,0:03:52.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,-- the third electron I can't put there anymore, Dialogue: 0,0:03:52.40,0:03:54.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because there's only room for two electrons. Dialogue: 0,0:03:54.21,0:03:57.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The way I think about it is these two electrons are now Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.29,0:03:59.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,going to repel the third one I want to add. Dialogue: 0,0:03:59.02,0:04:02.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So then I have to go to the 2s orbital. Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.42,0:04:06.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And now if I were to plot the 2s orbital on top of this one, Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.03,0:04:07.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it would look something like this, Dialogue: 0,0:04:07.36,0:04:08.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where I have a high probability Dialogue: 0,0:04:08.58,0:04:12.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of finding the electrons in this shell Dialogue: 0,0:04:12.03,0:04:19.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that's essentially around the 1s orbital, right? Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.07,0:04:23.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So right now, if maybe I'm dealing with lithium right now. Dialogue: 0,0:04:23.25,0:04:24.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I only have one extra electron. Dialogue: 0,0:04:24.66,0:04:25.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this one extra electron, Dialogue: 0,0:04:25.97,0:04:29.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that might be where I observed that extra electron. Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.27,0:04:30.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But every now and then it could show up there, Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.00,0:04:32.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it could show up there, it could show up there, Dialogue: 0,0:04:32.86,0:04:34.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but the high probability is there. Dialogue: 0,0:04:34.34,0:04:37.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So when you say where is it going to be 90% of the time? Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.13,0:04:39.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It'll be like this shell that's around the center. Dialogue: 0,0:04:39.75,0:04:40.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Remember, when it's three-dimensional Dialogue: 0,0:04:40.84,0:04:42.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you would kind of cover it up. Dialogue: 0,0:04:42.08,0:04:42.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it would be this shell. Dialogue: 0,0:04:42.95,0:04:45.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that's what they drew here. Dialogue: 0,0:04:45.18,0:04:47.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They do the 1s. Dialogue: 0,0:04:47.90,0:04:49.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's just a red shell.

Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.60,0:04:55.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And you can see it a little bit better in, actually, Dialogue: 0,0:04:55.65,0:04:57.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the higher energy orbits, the higher energy shells, Dialogue: 0,0:04:57.92,0:05:02.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where the seventh s energy shell is this red area. Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.29,0:05:04.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then you have the blue area, then the red, and the blue. Dialogue: 0,0:05:04.50,0:05:05.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so I think you get the idea Dialogue: 0,0:05:05.91,0:05:07.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that each of those are energy shells.

Dialogue: 0,0:05:14.38,0:05:15.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the general principle, remember, Dialogue: 0,0:05:15.85,0:05:18.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that the electrons fill up the orbital Dialogue: 0,0:05:18.68,0:05:21.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from lowest energy orbital to higher energy orbital. Dialogue: 0,0:05:21.31,0:05:24.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the first one that's filled up is the 1s. Dialogue: 0,0:05:24.94,0:05:26.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is the 1.

Dialogue: 0,0:13:10.85,0:13:14.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it's 2p6. Dialogue: 0,0:13:14.49,0:13:16.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then here, 2s2. Dialogue: 0,0:13:17.00,0:13:19.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then, of course, it filled up at the first shell Dialogue: 0,0:13:19.34,0:13:20.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,before it could fill up these other shells. Dialogue: 0,0:13:20.89,0:13:21.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, 1s2. Dialogue: 0,0:13:21.98,0:13:26.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this is the electron configuration for silicon.

Dialogue: 0,0:13:56.55,0:13:59.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the way I think about this, not to waste too much time, Dialogue: 0,0:13:59.29,0:14:03.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that as you go further and further out from the nucleus, Dialogue: 0,0:14:03.94,0:14:06.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,there's more space in between the lower energy orbitals Dialogue: 0,0:14:06.80,0:14:10.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to fill in more of these bizarro-shaped orbitals.
