Tips, Tricks & Formulae On Atomic Structure

This document contains tips and important formulae about atomic structure. It discusses that only s and p electrons are valence electrons, and that an orbital can hold only two electrons. It also notes that the Rydberg constant is 1.0978*107m-1 and that Rutherford's experiment involved scattering alpha particles off atom nuclei. X-rays are not deflected by electric or magnetic fields.

Tips and Tricks on Atomic Structure

Tip #1
Only s & p electrons count as Valence Electrons

Tip #2

Tip #3
An orbital can hold only two Electrons

Tip #4

Tip #5

Tip #6

Tip #7

Tip #8
Since n cannot be equal to 1, so orbitals 1p, 2d, 3f, 4g do
not exist.

Tip #9

Tip #10

Tip #11

Tip #12
In case of H-atom (Hydrogenic species) energy depends
only upon n-value so 1s<2s=2p<3s=3p=3d

Tip #13

Tip #14
Limitation of de-Broglie concept is that it can be applied
only on objects having force free environment it means
not applicable for any electrons present in atom.
