Electronic Structure of Many - Electron Atoms Orbital approximation For the approximate Hamiltonian H' = ∑ h'(Z, i) i

and the corresponding Schrödinger equation is H' Ψ(1, 2, 3, 4.., n) = EΨ(1, 2, 3, 4.., n) We shall now show that the the many - electron wavefunction Ψ(1, 2, 3,..) that is a solution to the above Schrödinger equation can be written as r r r r r Ψ(1,2,3,..,n) = ψ 1(r1 )ψ 2 (r2 )ψ 3 (r2 ).ψ 4 (r4 )....ψ n (rn )

Where ψ i is a solution to : for each i = 1, 2,..n, and  −h2 2 Ze 2 h' (Z, i) =  ∇i − 4 πε ori  2me

hi' (ri )ψ i (ri ) = ε i ψ i (ri )  + Vi (ri ) 

r r r r r = ∑ ε i ψ 1(r1 )ψ 2 (r2 )ψ 3 (r2 ).ψ 4 (r4 )....ψ n (rn ) i

r r r r r = {∑ εi } ψ 1( r1)ψ 2 ( r2 )ψ 3 ( r2 ).ψ 4 ( r4 )....ψ n ( rn ) i

The final solution for a many - electron atom with nuclear charge Z can to a good approximation be written as : r ψ i ( ri ) = Ylimi (θi .φi )Rnili (ri ) where Rnl (ri ) has the same analytical form as for the hydrogenic one - electron atom with atom charge Z. Only throughout Z is replaced by Z - ρnl = Znl Shielding constant

With the energy  Znl 2µ Ze 4  ε Z,n = −   2h 2 

Effective nuclear charge

Electronic Structure of Many - Electron Atoms Shielding Znl = Z - ρnl 1. Electrons in orbitals with quantum number n = n * will be shielded from the nucleus by electrons of lower n - quantum number that are closer to the nuclei. Thus n=1 n=2 n=3 n=4

σ nl increases with n and Znl (the effective nuclear charge) will decrease with n

For a given n The shielding σ nl increases with l and the effective nuclear charge Znl decreases with l.

Each orbital ψ nlm (different n, l, m) can only contain two electrons .The electrons must have different spins (α (i)/β(i) ) Thus : Ψ(1, 2) = 1s(1)α (1)1s(2)α (2)

Electronic Structure of Many - Electron Atoms Building − up principle Li − atom

Each orbital ψ nlm (different n, l, m) can only contain two electrons .The electrons must have different spins (α (i)/β(i) ) According to the Pauli exclusion principle the K - shell (1s)2 is full and the next electron must go into 2p or 2s orbitals of L - shell In many - electron shells orbitals of same n (shell) but different l do not have the same energy. The energy increases with l as the orbitals penetrates less and less to the nuclei Thus within a subshell : s < p < d < f

Electronic Structure of Many - Electron Atoms Building − up Thus the electron configuration principle og Li is 1s2 2s

Ψ(1, 2, 3) = 1s(1)α (1)1s(1)β(1)2s(1)α (1) or Ψ(1, 2, 3) = 1s(1)α (1)1s(1)β(1)2s(1)β(1) 1s

(Z=2.68)

For Be we have 1s2 2s2

2s (Z= 3.0) 2s(Z=1.7) 1s (Z=3)

Ψ(1, 2, 3, 4) = 1s(1)α (1)1s(1)β(1) ×2s(1)β(1)2s(1)β(1)

the radial functions for 1s and 2s of Li have exponents of 2.68 and 1.7, respectively, rather than 3
