Orbitals and Energy LevelsOrbitals and Energy LevelsEach electron in an atom has a definite Each electron in an atom has a definite amount of energy.amount of energy.

Electrons in orbitals further from the Electrons in orbitals further from the nucleus have more energy.nucleus have more energy.

Orbitals that are FULL Orbitals that are FULL of electrons are most of electrons are most stable.stable.

Which electrons in Which electrons in this atom have the this atom have the most energy?most energy?

What are Ions?

Atoms are neutral particles because they have the same number of positive protons and negative electrons.

An ion is a charged particle.

An ion is formed when an atom gains or loses electrons.

Forming Ions

Type of Ion How Formed? Example

Negative Ion

= anion

Formed by gaining negative electrons

F F-1

Positive Ion

= cation

Formed by losing negative electrons

Na Na+1

Ions want noble gas orbitals!Noble gases have stable energy levels for their orbitals.Atoms want to form ions with the most stable energy levels.To form ions atoms in groups 1, 2, 13 will lose valence electrons.To form ions atoms in groups 15, 16, 17 will gain valence electrons.

Forming a Magnesium Cation

The neutral magnesium atom Mg has

Atomic mass=24

Atomic number=12

12 protons

12 neutrons

12 electrons

Total charge on magnesium atom=0

A magnesium ion is formed by losing 2 valence electrons.

12p12n

This forms a cation, Mg+2

Test YourselfWhat ion will calcium form?Ca+2

Will sulphur gain or lose electrons to form an ion?

By losing electrons, so there are more positive protons left.

Gain 2 electrons

How is a cation formed?
