CHEMISTRY SHENANIGANS

- atoms are electrically neutral
-two different models can be used to describe electron configuration
i) Energy Level Model
ii) Bohr Model
-Electrons occupy or orbitals
i) 2 e in the first orbital
ii) 8 e in the second orbital
iii) 8 e in the third orbital
- these are called octet

Hybridized Orbitals
- the first of the Bohr Levels is the 1s-orbital and it holds 2e-
- the second level contains the 2s, 2px, 2py, 2pz orbitals. They combine (hybridize) to from one 2sp3 orbital
