General Review - Periodic Table and Electron Configuration

Orbital

• a region in an atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons.

• an electron that is found in the outermost shell of an atom and that determines the atom’s chemical properties.

• The energy level at which electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom

• a subdivision of electron shells

Valence Electron

• a region in an atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons.

• an electron that is found in the outermost shell of an atom and that determines the atom’s chemical properties.

• The energy level at which electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom

• a subdivision of electron shells

Electron Shell

• a region in an atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons.

Electron Subshell

• a region in an atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons.
