The first ten elements of the Periodic Table have the electronic configurations shown in Table 1.1. We see that an orbital becomes occupied only if the orbitals... 

Electron dot notation is often used to represent the formation of bonds between atoms. In this notation, the symbol for an element represents the nucleus of an atom of the element plus all the electrons except those in the outermost (valence) shell. The outermost electrons are represented by dots. For example, the dot notation for the first ten elements in the periodic table is as follows ... 

Continuing our discussion of atoms of the first ten elements, we go next to beryllium (Z = 4). The ground-state electron configuration of beryllium is or... 

Here we will extend the rules used in writing electron configurations for the first ten elements to the rest of the elements. This process is based on the Aufbau principle. (The German word Aufbau means building up. ) The principle dictates that... 

Slater4 has constructed a similar table, based, however, on Zener s variation-method calculations for the first ten elements (Sec. 316). His screening constants are meant to be used in...

Figure 1.32 shows the values of IE for the first ten elements, (a) Label each point with the symbol of the... 

Fig 7 3 Electron configurations in the ground states of atoms of the first ten elements in the periodic table, shown by the method of Fig 7 2... 

It is easy to use a while loop to step through a series of values. For example, the following while loop zeroes the first ten elements of an array named x. (An integer variable named i is used as the array index and as the loop counter.)... 

Here is a typical for loop. It performs the same task as before, setting the first ten elements of an array named x to zero, using a loop counter named i ... 

At this point let s summarize what our examination of the first ten elements has revealed about ground-state electron configurations and the properties of electrons in atoms ... 

The nucleides of the various elements show many interesting properties. Most of the known nucleides corresponding to the first ten elements are... 

In the following example, Hund s rule is used to determine the orbital diagram for the ground state of a more complicated atom. Table 8.2 gives orbital diagrams for the ground states of the first ten elements. 

In the following discussion, Lewis symbols are used to represent the atoms. Such symbols comprise the letter designation of the element, and dots to represent electrons in the highest principal energy level. They are the electrons usually involved in bonding. For the atoms of the representative elements, the niunber of electrons equals the periodic group number. Lewis symbols for the first ten elements and some of their ions are shown. Note that 0 and F have the same electronic structure as Ne these species are said to be isoelectronic. 

Ffg. 18.10. Energy level diagram showing MO energy levels that arise by overlap of the AO s of the first ten elements. 

The University of CaUfornia physical chemist Gilbert Newton Lewis (1875-1946) introduced a notation to represent atoms and their valence (outermost) electrons that today we call Lewis electron dot structures in his honor. Here are the dot structures for first ten elements in the periodic table ... 

From its electronic configuration, predict which of the first ten elements would be most similar in chemical behavior to the as yet undiscovered element 165. 

Lewis proposed the following representations for the first ten elements with their valence electrons.
