Consider the following statement "The ionization energy for the potassium atom is negative, because when K loses an electron to become K +, it achieves a noble gas electron configuration." Indicate everything that is correct in this statement. Indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect information and explain.
The energy needed to remove one electron from a gaseous potassium atom is only about two-thirds as much as that needed to remove one electron from a gaseous calcium atom, yet nearly three times as much energy as that needed to remove one electron from K+ as from Ca+ . What explanation can you give for this contrast? What do you expect to be the relation between the ionization energy of Ca+ and that of neutral K?
Before the element scandium was discovered in 1879, it was known as “eka-boron.” Predict the properties of scandium from averages of the corresponding properties of its neighboring elements in the periodic table. Compare your predictions with the observed values in Appendix F.
Photoelectron spectroscopy studies of silicon atoms excited by X-rays with wavelength 9.8901010m show four peaks in which the electrons have speeds 2.097107ms1,2.093107ms1,2.014107ms1, and 1.971107ms1 . (Recall that 1J=1kgm2s2 .) (a) Calculate the ionization energy of the electrons in each peak. (b) Assign each peak to an orbital of the silicon atom.
Which of the following statements is(are) true? a. F has a larger first ionization energy than does Li. b. Cations are larger than their parent atoms. c. The removal of the first electron from a lithium atom (electron configuration is ls2 2s1 ) is exothermic-that is, removing this electorn gives off energy. d. The He atom is larger than the H+ ion. e. The Al atorn is smaller than the Li atom.

Cesium is used extensively in photocells and in television cameras because it has the lowest ionization energy of all the stable elements. (a) What is the maximum kinetic energy of a photoelectron ejected from cesium by 520 nm light? Note that if the wavelength of the light used to irradiate the cesium surface becomes longer than 660 nm, no photoelectrons are emitted. (b) Use the rest mass of the electron to calculate the velocity of the photoelectron in (a).
