3.3

~The Electron Cloud Model~

In 3.3 we learned about the electron cloud model. We learned about orbitals and sub-shlls as well as how to write electron configurations, including noble gas abbreviations. I learned how to identify an element based on its electron configuration as well.

Need to Know

- What the electron cloud model is

- How to write electron configurations

- How to write noble gas abbreviations

- How to identify s, p, d, and f blocks on Periodic Table

- How to identify elements based on their electron configuration

I didn't find section 3.3 to be a very difficult section.

We need to know all of the information above so we can comprehend where electrons may be as well as using electron configuration/noble gas notation. We will need this information for our future studies.
