Atomic Structure: Electronic Configuration

This lecture covers the solutions of the Schrödinger equation for atoms with multiple electrons, focusing on exceptions to the aufbau rule and stability of d orbitals. It discusses the ground state electron configuration, periodic trends, and the periodic table. The instructor explains the concept of atomic radius, effective nuclear charge, and electron affinity. Additionally, it delves into the historical development of the periodic table, the atomic theory of John Dalton, and the discovery of the atomic number. The lecture also explores the principles of electronegativity, ionization energy, and chemical properties, providing insights into the electronic structure of atoms.
