Azimuthal quantum number

Azimuthal quantum number
( Angular quantum number):
 This quantum number tells of subshell in a shell.  it is denoted by (l)  .it value 0 to (n-1) .
              value of l         name of sub shell

if n=1       l= 0                       s
    n=2       l =0, 1                  sp
    n=3       l=0, 1,2                spd
    n=4       l=0, 1,2,3             spdf

no.  of subshell in a shell is given by = n



Magnitic quantum number  : this no.  tells us no.  of orientations or orbitals in a subshell.  it is denoted by (m).  it can have value from -l to  +l and including zero. 
                     value of m                  no. of orbitals
if l=0             m=0                                 1(s) 
    l= 1            m=-1, 0,1                         3(p) 
    l=2            m=-2, -1, 0,1,2                  5(d) 
    l=3              m=-3, -2, -1, 0,1,2,3        7(f) 

no.  of orbitals in a shell = 2n-1

Electronegativity scales and disadvantage of scales and its nunericals

Electronegativity scales: 1.Pauling scale of electronegativity: in diatomic molecule (A-B) ,the bond formed between two atoms A and  B will be intermediate between  pure Covalent (A-B)  and pure ionic character,  the bond between A and B will be  strong than bond energy increased. if bond (A-B) has been purily covalent than bond energy can be calculated as average bond energy of bond (A-A)  and bond (B-B).     that means it is equal to bond energy of bond (A-B) E(A-B)  = 1/2[ E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] however experiemental value of bond (A-B)  more than this value  because of difference in electronegativity  of A and B the difference ∆ is given by simple expression ∆ = E(A-B) - 1/2 [E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] where E(A-B)  is experimental value of bond energy. if Ҳ(A)  and  Ҳ(B) are the electronegative of elements A and B than Ҳ(A) - Ҳ(B) = 0.18√∆ for numerical ∆ = E(A-B)  -[√(E(A-A) ×E(B-B) )] Disadvan...

Radial probability distribution curves

Radial probhjjhajajbability distribution curves:  The probability of finding the electron is given by the quantity  sie^2.By radial probability us probability of finding the electron within small Radial space around the nucleus. volume of spherical shell between radius r and r+dr =4πr^2 and probability of finding the electron will be 4πr^2dr sie^2. radial probability distribution curves are obtained by plotting radial probability at various distance from the nucleus . 1.Radial probability distribution curves for S orbital n=1, l= 0. distance from nucleus here A° is called angstrom. the probability of finding of electron in a shell is maximum at distance r=r° (r not)  which is 0.529 A° for H atom. diagram shows that probability plot for 2s has(two region of high probability)  or (two peaks)  separated by node. we conclude that  no.  of high probability region in S orbital = n no.  of node = ( n-1)
