Draw two short lines about 4-6 inches apart at the same height on the page, and label them "1s," representing the two H-atoms in the H2 molecule. Above one line (not both), put a single arrow pointing up, indicating a single electron occupying the 1s orbital in one of the two H-atoms. Then in between the two lines, draw two new lines. But now, one line is below the original pair of lines, and one is above (if you connected the four lines, you'd get a diamond shape). The lower line represents the molecular orbital "sigma bonding", and the upper line represents the "sigma anti-bonding" orbital. Since the number of electrons in the molecule is just the sum of those in the atoms, there is only one electron. Electrons go in the lowest possible level, so put one arrow above the lower line, the sigma bonding orbital. The molecule has a bond order of 0.5
Yes, all alkali metals form ions with a positive charge. This is because alkali metals have one electron in their outermost energy level, which they lose to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a positive charge.
it gains or acquires a charge either positive or negative so when it gains energy, it aquires a negative charge then when it loses energy, it aquires a positive charge
False. A diagram showing only outer energy level electrons is called an electron dot diagram or Lewis structure. The periodic table is a chart that organizes elements based on their atomic number and chemical properties.
No, the number of valence electrons in an atom is not equal to its effective nuclear charge (Zeff) value. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom, while the Zeff value represents the net positive charge experienced by an electron in the outermost energy level.
The Bohr-Rutherford diagram for a silicon atom would show 14 electrons distributed in energy levels around the nucleus. The first energy level would have 2 electrons, the second energy level would have 8 electrons, and the third energy level would have 4 electrons.
In a potential energy diagram, a positive enthalpy change (ΔH) indicates that the reaction is endothermic, meaning it absorbs energy from the surroundings. This is visually represented by the products being at a higher potential energy level than the reactants. The diagram typically shows an upward slope from the reactants to the products, with the energy barrier for activation also depicted as a peak. Overall, the diagram highlights that energy is required for the reaction to proceed.
Drawing a energy level diagram is simple. All you have to do is draw a graph and place the value of the energy.
Yes, all alkali metals form ions with a positive charge. This is because alkali metals have one electron in their outermost energy level, which they lose to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a positive charge.
The energy diagram of hydrogen chloride shows the potential energy of the system as a function of the reaction progress. It typically consists of an initial reactant energy level, a transition state energy level, and a final product energy level. The diagram illustrates the energy changes that occur during the formation of hydrogen chloride from its constituent elements.

The electron energy level diagram shows the different energy levels that electrons can occupy around an atomic nucleus. It also shows the relative energy of these levels and how electrons can move between them by absorbing or emitting photons.

Energy Pyramid.
The energy level shell farthest from the nucleus would have the greatest potential energy. As electrons move farther from the nucleus, their potential energy increases due to the increasing distance from the positive charge of the nucleus. This is in line with the understanding that potential energy decreases as an object gets closer to a source of attraction.
