Interpretation:
A correct set of four quantum numbers for each atomic orbital in
Concept Introduction:
Principal Quantum Number (n): In an atom, the electron energy mainly depends on principal quantum number. The energy of an electron becomes lower when the value of n is smaller. The orbital size also depends on n. The size of orbital increases with increase in value of principal quantum number (n)

- Look up the van der Waals constants, b, for H2, N2, O2, and Cl2. Based on the periodic table, predict atomic radii for H, N, O, and Cl. Use these values to explain the sizes of the b constants.arrow_forward• identify an orbital (as 1s, 3p, etc.) from its quantum numbers, or vice versa.arrow_forwardQuestion 20 Answer the following questions: (a) Without using quantum numbers, describe the differences between the shells, subshells, and orbitals of an atom. (b) How do the quantum numbers of the shells, subshells, and orbitals of an atom differ? Question 21 Identify the subshell in which electrons with the following quantum numbers are found: (a) n = 2, l = 1 (b) n = 4, l = 2 (c) n = 6, l = 0arrow_forward
- (a) Why do successive IEs of a given element always increase? (b) When the difference between successive IEs of a given element is exceptionally large (for example, between IE1 and IE2 of K), what do we learn about its electron configuration? (c) The bars represent the relative magnitudes of the first five ionization energies of an atom: Identify the element and write its complete electron config uration, assuming it comes from (a) Period 2; (b) Period 3; (c) Period 4.arrow_forwardDetermine the number of valence electrons and give the electronic confi guration of the valence electrons of each element: (a) nitrogen; (b) potassium.arrow_forward4. Calculate (A) the energy of an electron transitioning from n=5 to n=6. (B) the wavelength of light emitted from this transition.arrow_forward

Lowest energy?arrow_forward
- Particles called muons exist in cosmic rays and can be created in particle accelerators. Muons are very similar to electrons, having the same charge and spin, but they have a mass 207 times greater. When muons arecaptured by an atom, they orbit just like an electron but with a smaller radius, since the mass in aB =0.529x 10-10 m is 207 me .(a) Calculate the radius of the n=1 orbit for a muon in a uranium ion( Z=92).(b) Compare this with the 7.5-fm radius of a uranium nucleus. Note that since the muon orbits inside the electron, it falls into a hydrogen-like orbit. Since your answer is less than the radius of the nucleus, you can seethat the photons emitted as the muon falls into its lowest orbit can give information about the nucleus.arrow_forwardUsing only their location in the periodic table, rank the atoms in each set by decreasing atomic size. Explain your answers. (a) Mg, Be, Ba (b) Se, Br, Cl (c) Ca, Se, Gaarrow_forward5. Draw orbital diagrams for the ground states of: (a) Terbium, Tb, a lanthanide element.
