Why does electron affinity tend to become more exothermic as you move right across a period? Hints The trend in electron affinity is just the opposite of that for first ionization energy, since the two processes are the opposite of each other. As you move right across the period, you have a greater likelihood of pairing electrons in an orbital, which is a more stable configuration. ion is more likely to gain electrons than lose electrons. attraction for an electron. As you move right across the period, metallic character decreases, meaning that the atom or The effective nuclear charge increases as you move right across the period, resulting in greater

You and your classmates have been given an electron configuration and need to identify what it is.1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6You think this is the electron configuration for krypton, one classmate thinks it the calcium ion andanother classmate thinks it's the selenium ion. Who is correct? Who is incorrect? Explain.
Please explain the electron configuration of Chlorine and where this element is commonly used? Thank you!
Match the principle/rule with the correct statement. No two electrons in the same atom can have all their quantum numbers the same. 1. The Aufbau Principle Electrons are placed into orbitals from the lowest energy to the highest 2. Hund's Rule energy. 3. The Pauli Exclusion Principle All orbitals of the same subshell must have one electron before any. electrons are paired.
2. In electron configurations for multielectron atoms, the orbitals are listed from lowest to highest energy. That being said, the order shows that the 5s orbital is listed before the 4d orbitals in a "proper" electron configuration. Please explain why this orbital ordering is unexpected and why it is believed to occur.
For the element Cadmium (Cd). Write out the complete electron configuration. Draw the orbital diagram (boxes with arrows) for its valence (not core) electrons. Give the number of unpaired electrons. Write out the condensed electron configuration (Noble gas notation) for the Cd2+ cation
Redraw the table below and then enter the number of electrons in each quantum level (n) for the following elements. If the quantum level does not contain any electrons, enter a “0” (zero). HINT: For each element in the table, arrange the electrons into the energy level diagram. Next, count the number of electrons in each quantum level (n). For each element in the table, electrons are placed into the energy level diagram. After doing so, you can count the number of electrons in each quantum level (n). Can you help me, please? How can I solve the n=1, n=2, n=3, n=4 for the hydrogen, magnesium, bromine, potassium?
Most stable electron ion configuration for Magnesium?
I dont understand how to do this
The electrons in an atom are good grouped based on their shell, subshell, and orbital. What are the shells? List them. How many subshells are there per shell? List those for the first four shells. How many orbitals are in each subshell? How many electrons can be fit in an orbital? What is the total number of electrons per shell?
Write true if the statement is true. If false, replace the wrong word/phrase with the correct answer. In a polyelectronic atom, when two orbitals have the same principal quantum number, the electrons occupying the orbital with the higher angular momentum quantum number will be more shielded from the nucleus.
