Quantitative Lesson 18 "Ion Configuration"

Science and Technology Standards:

PA Standard 3.4.10A: Classify and describe, in equation form, types of chemical and nuclear reactions

Purpose:

1. I will identify the ion configurations for various elements.
2. I will identify the number of outershell electrons for various elements using the periodic table.
3. I will identify the location of the final electron for various elements using the periodic table.

Homework Due:

1. Flame Test Lab Report (Due Lesson 18)

Handouts/Supplies:

1. Magnesium

I. Introduction

Opening Assignment:

Warm-Up: Write down the location of the final electron for various elements using the periodic table for Mg, Nb, Np, Y, Cf, Pr, Nd, Pa, & Pm.
Review warm-up
State the purpose

II. The Lesson:

Activity #1: Collect the Flame Test Lab Report
Activity #2: Review the location of the final electron for various elements using the periodic table
1. Identify the number of columns in the s, p, d, and f regions
2. Identify the row position, region, and column position of the element
3. List the location of the last electron [{row} s{column}; {row} p{column}; {row -1} d{column}; {row - 2} f{column + 1}]
4. Review Practice Examples: Mg, Nb, Np, Y, Cf, Pr, Nd, Pa, Pm
Activity #3: Complete Ring of Fire demonstration (Mg ignition by Na & water)
Activity #4: Review the production of magnesium oxide
1. Write and balance the chemical equation: Mg + O → MgO
2. Draw the Lewis dots for Mg and O
3. Demonstrate the transfer of electrons from Mg to O
4. Draw the Lewis dot for Mg2+ and O2-
5. Discuss neutrality, stablility, and the octet rule
6. Write the e- configuration for Mg2+ and O2-
7. Compare the e- configuration of Mg2+, O2-, and Ne
Activity #5: Discuss and complete ion configurations for 24Mg2+ (s = 0, p = ±1, d = ±2, f = ±3) (spin up = +½, spin down = -½)
1. e- configurations (all e-)
2. shell configuration (nucleus and all e-)
3. orbital notation (all e-)
4. Lewis or e- dot (valence "a.k.a. outershell" e-)
5. Quantum numbers (1 e-)
6. Read the periodic table
