Electron ArrangementElectron Arrangement
• Electrons are arranged in Electrons are arranged in energy energy levelslevels around the nucleus around the nucleus
• Each energy level can only hold a Each energy level can only hold a limited limited number of electronsnumber of electrons
• An atom will always fill the innermost An atom will always fill the innermost energy level before placing the eenergy level before placing the e-- in in the next energy levelthe next energy level(under normal conditions)(under normal conditions)

• They are important because they They are important because they determine HOW an atom acts towards determine HOW an atom acts towards other atomsother atoms
• They tell us the They tell us the number of electrons number of electrons that that will take place in bonding with other will take place in bonding with other atomsatoms

LAZYLAZYExample:Example:
If an atom has If an atom has 11e in the outer shell,e in the outer shell,is it easier to FIND is it easier to FIND 77e to make it fulle to make it fullororis it easier to LOSE is it easier to LOSE 11e to make the e to make the previous energy level the outer shell?previous energy level the outer shell?
If an atom has If an atom has 33e in the outer shell,e in the outer shell,is it easier to FIND is it easier to FIND 55e to make it e to make it
fullfulloror
is it easier to LOSE is it easier to LOSE 33e to make e to make the previous energy level the outer the previous energy level the outer shell?shell?
