ALTERNATIVE EXPLANATION OF FILLING THE ELECTRONIC LAYERS OF ATOMS OF CHEMICAL ELEMENTS

Abstract

Abstract. Introduction. The article provides a new approach to the formation of periods in Mendeleev's periodic system. Reconfiguration of the periods in the Mendeleev table using the newly proposed formula and the newly proposed quantum states for the outer electron shells of atoms of chemical elements is proposed. Purpose of work: Further development of the alternative theory of creation of electronic shells of atoms of chemical elements in D.I.Mendeleev's table. Results and discussions. The following order of formation of electron layers is proposed: principle quantum number (n), then the quantum state of the electrons forming the electronic configuration of the subperiods (first and second), and only then the remaining quantum orbitals (s, d, f and p). First and second new quantum states and a new formula for calculating the number of electrons in the outer electron shell of element periods and subperiods were proposed. The new level of electronic counting (II) and the new quantum number proposed by us allow to change the understanding of the internal structure of chemical elements without changing the general appearance and order of arrangement of chemical elements in D.I.Mendeleev's table itself, and therefore its contents. An important advantage of the proposed alternative model is that it takes into account and relies on already known, classical data for most of its main operational characteristics and is an extension of this important topic for classical chemistry theory. Therefore, the change in the number of periods, the introduction of a new quantum number in the form of D.I.Mendeleev's table, outwardly it does not differ much, but requires the necessary additional explanation. Concept. The proposed alternative approach to the structure and electronic structure of atomic shells of chemical elements in the periods and groups of D.I.Mendeleev's periodic system was recently developed by the authors and has good prospects for development primarily in the following directions: - identification of possible patterns of changes in the characteristics of chemical and physical properties of elements; - development of an accompanying model of the electronic structure of electronic shells of atoms of chemical elements of the proposed alternative model.
