This procedure is called the Aufbau principle, from the German word Aufbau (“to build up”). Beginning with hydrogen, and continuing across the periods of the periodic table, we add one proton at a time to the nucleus and one electron to the proper subshell until we have described the electron configurations of all the elements. To determine the electron configuration for any particular atom, we can “build” the structures in the order of atomic numbers. The diagram of an electron configuration specifies the subshell ( n and l value, with letter symbol) and superscript number of electrons. The notation 3 d 8 (read “three–d–eight”) indicates eight electrons in the d subshell ( l = 2) of the principal shell for which n = 3. A superscript number that designates the number of electrons in that particular subshell.įor example, 2 p 4 indicates four electrons in a p subshell ( l = 1) with a principal quantum number ( n) of 2.The letter that designates the orbital type (the subshell, l), and.The number of the principal quantum number, n,.We describe an electron configuration with a symbol that contains three pieces of information ( Figure 2): The arrangement of electrons in the orbitals of an atom is called the electron configuration of the atom. For small orbitals (1 s through 3 p), the increase in energy due to n is more significant than the increase due to l however, for larger orbitals the two trends are comparable and cannot be simply predicted. Electrons in orbitals that experience more shielding are less stabilized and thus higher in energy. This phenomenon is called shielding and will be discussed in more detail in the next section. Electrons that are closer to the nucleus slightly repel electrons that are farther out, offsetting the more dominant electron–nucleus attractions slightly (recall that all electrons have −1 charges, but nuclei have + Z charges). In any atom with two or more electrons, the repulsion between the electrons makes energies of subshells with different values of l differ so that the energy of the orbitals increases within a shell in the order s p > d > f. The energy of atomic orbitals increases as the principal quantum number, n, increases. | Key Concepts and Summary | Glossary | End of Section Exercises | Orbital Energies and Electron Configurations of Atoms | Aufbau Principle | Writing Orbital Diagrams | Core and Valence Electrons | Electron Configuration Exceptions | Apply the Aufbau principle to rationalize the structure of the periodic table.| Orbital Energies and Electron Configurations of Atoms | Write an electron configuration for an atom. We encountered this at the Epcot Food and Wine Festival the past few years at the Fry Basket booth, so I knew that this was a thing, but it was good to get more info from the manager. He confirmed that the malt flavor is a powder that does not contain gluten. The manager did come back to the table and discussed it with me, while they were remaking my meal so that I could have plain GF fries. I asked our server who removed them from the table and double-checked with the manager. When I got my entree, I did take a bite of the fries first and noticed a decidedly malt vinegar flavor to them. I asked for plain French fries, assuming that the malt fries were not safe, because malt contains gluten. ![]() The menu does indicate that this dish comes with malt vinegar fries. How cool is that? So, the recipe is the same across the board - which makes it great for everyone. The manager also told us that the fish and chips here are naturally gluten free and dairy free for everyone who dines at the restaurant. We will double-check this on a future visit and would encourage you to double-check/confirm especially if you have a dairy allergy or do not want to consume anything with cross-contamination. I assume that the chicken and fish may be fried in the same fryer. The fryer itself is a dedicated GF fryer, but the manager told us that the GF chicken strips did contain dairy (buttermilk). The manager told me that these were both gluten free and dairy free, though I realized after we got home that I had forgotten to ask about a shared fryer. So, I would say eat this all at the restaurant instead of taking any leftovers with you.įor my main entree, I ordered the Grouper Fish ‘n’ Chips. Side note, if you get this and take it home, it does not reheat very well, even with an air fryer. Brandon’s mom tried it and called it a "pleasant surprise.” The sauce was very flavorful, and I loved the addition of coarse sea salt on top of the pizza. Priced at nearly $19.95, this was a pretty pricey pizza, so I probably wouldn’t get it again unless I was really craving pizza, but I was glad that I tried it. I decided to try the GF Margherita Pizza. The manager also told us that they don’t currently have a dairy free/vegan cheese option. If you are on a low FODMAP diet or can’t have cauliflower like Brandon (it’s in the cabbage family of vegetables), then this would not be a safe option for you. We did learn that the pizza crust is a combination of gluten free flours and cauliflower. But, we were super curious about the GF pizza. With so many choices at the restaurant, it was hard to decide what to get. In terms of GF options, the manager said almost everything can be made GF with the exception of a few items, like the meatballs and crispy wontons. ![]() You’ll want to double-check when you dine at Summer House on the Lake, especially if you have any specific allergies or concerns with a potential shared fryer (like dairy). ![]() ![]() Rich also noted that they have three fryers - one strictly for the few gluten-filled items, one solely for French fries, and one for fried items like fish and chips. We learned that all special diets orders are cleared by the managers to ensure that meals are prepared safely for guests and orders also have allergy picks included. The manager, Rich, was super helpful and talked through the many questions that we had included asking about dedicated fryers for GF guests, ingredients, and cross-contamination. She then noted that they take special diets very seriously and that a manager was available to talk to us about options and protocols. On our visit, our server asked after greeting us if anyone had special dietary needs. ![]() 4 A third study showed that children whose mothers survived the Tutsi genocide during pregnancy were likelier to experience posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) than children whose mothers hadn’t experienced that trauma. In another study, sons of Civil War soldiers who survived Confederate prisoner-of-war camps were likely to die earlier than sons of soldiers who weren’t captured or were placed in camps with better conditions. These higher stress levels may be passed on to descendants who didn’t experience that trauma themselves, as a 2015 study involving children of Holocaust survivors found. Experiencing severe trauma, for example, can cause you to produce higher levels of stress hormones in order to survive. Scientists and researchers don’t yet fully understand the epigenetic picture of generational trauma, but they have found evidence of the internal impact of trauma on future generations. We may then pass these tags along to our children and grandchildren. Much of epigenetics concerns whether certain genes have been turned “on” or “off.” Epigenetics and traumaĮpigenetic researchers believe traumatic experiences of all kinds may create tiny chemical tags that attach to our genes and influence how they function. ![]() 2Įpigenetics focuses on this process, looking at how experiences can affect gene expression and whether those changes can then be passed along. The code’s interpretation may differ depending on certain factors, such as your overall genetic makeup, your age, and whether you’ve been exposed to harmful substances. “Gene expression” happens when that code is read and put into action. Your DNA includes encoded instructions for cell production. The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) describes epigenetics as “the study of how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the ways your genes work.” 1 “Epi-” means “on top of” in Greek, so epigenetics can be thought of as the study of what’s happening “above” your genes. There appears to be some evidence that this happens, but more research is needed to confirm and clarify the process. The theory is that trauma can change the way our genes function, and those changes are then transmitted to future generations. The idea that trauma can also be passed down internally is the subject of ongoing research and debate. Some are external, such as financial difficulties or the behavior patterns a family develops in order to cope. Trauma can have deep consequences for later generations. It has been linked to a range of experiences, including: “Generational trauma” (also called “intergenerational trauma” or “inherited trauma”) is a term for traumatic impacts that are passed from one generation of a family to the next. ![]() We know that our genes are passed down from generation to generation, but do we also pass down the effects of trauma? There’s still much to learn about this possibility, but researchers have begun exploring how generational trauma can influence our lives.

If you’re not sure how much antifreeze to add to your car, consult your owner’s manual or ask a qualified mechanic. It also raises the boiling point of water, which helps to prevent your engine from overheating in summer. Antifreeze lowers the freezing point of water, so it helps to prevent your engine from freezing in cold weather. It’s important to keep your car’s coolant level topped up with antifreeze, especially in cold temperatures. ![]() Top up your engine coolant with antifreeze If you’re not confident in doing this yourself, visit your nearest Elite Garages branch where our experts will carry out the necessary checks for you.

Even the poor can succeed monetarily if they just make all of the right decisions. This belief states that if people work hard and pull up their bootstraps, they too can share in the riches of this great nation. ![]() In the United States, we have a cultural belief called The American Dream. Aspects of the game where a user has to make a decision, such as attending college or purchasing insurance, have a very small effect in the outcome.”Īnd that right there - the realization that our decisions have little effect - is what drove much of the anger behind the Occupy Wall Street protests. Even the Wikipedia entry on the game points this out: “Some critics have noted that luck plays too large a role in determining the winner of the game, with Life Cards, which are essentially random, being the prime determinant of the winner. However, anyone who plays the game (and surely their marketing people have played!) will tell you that your choices do not matter at all. (Don’t believe me? Just ask if Shoeless Joe Jackson is in the National Baseball Hall of Fame yet.) For example, if you go on Hasbro’s website, it promotes Life as a game of options with “Where will your choices take you?” as their slogan. It’s not just winning that is important it is the perception of how winning is accomplished that truly matters. Yes but it actually goes a lot deeper than that. So what’s the big deal here? Everyone knows that winning is more fun than losing. I insisted that we count although, to be fair, I didn’t make them do the math. They kept groaning with disbelief when I got more money and didn’t even want to count up the money at the end because it was obvious that I would win. I was loving life (heh) but my husband and son did not share my fun. In short, the money was pouring in! I have to tell you, that game was much more fun than the other one. My salary was among the highest, I kept landing on spaces that either gave me tiles or money, and my house was reasonably priced. ![]() Lady Luck was on my side and I could practically do no wrong. The next time we played, I had the exact opposite experience. I did everything ‘right’ yet I had little to show for it. I was especially irritated when I got penalized for not having homeowner’s insurance because, with all my financial woes, how was I expected to pay for that? When I finally reached retirement, I was so frustrated. My house was the $200,000 mansion (I was hoping for the split level but no dice) which I couldn’t pay for and for some reason I kept landing on spaces in which I had to pay for stupid stuff. ![]() Although I went to college and initially chose a good career and salary, I was forced to change careers and got a drastically reduced salary card. The first night my family and I played the game, I was the big loser. So, it’s a great little capitalistic type of game. You also collect Life tiles that give you a certain amount of money that you count up when you retire at the end of the game. As you move around the board, you land on spaces that either make you pay (like when you get a speeding ticket or the stock market crashes) or give you money (you can win the Nobel or write a best seller). The career and salary have nothing to do with each other (you could be a teacher making $100,000 or an athlete with a $30,000 salary) and they, as well as the house card, are drawn randomly. Now I’m recommending it for everyone!įor those of you unfamiliar with The Game of Life (or Life), it is a board game in which you choose cards for a career, salary, and a house as you spin the wheel that tells you where to move. However, until I played the game of Lifethe other week, I didn’t realize how a game could enhance my understanding of actual life. ![]() Depending on the type of game being played, they can promote teamwork, togetherness (“The family that plays together stays together!”), patience, good sportsmanship, strategizing, good hand-eye coordination and the list goes on. There are a host of benefits to playing games, ones we can probably all figure out. |
