Quantum numbers arise naturally from the mathematics used to describe the possible states of an electron in an atom. The four quantum numbers, the principal quantum number (n), the angular momentum quantum number (e), the magnetic quantum number (m,), and the spin quantum number (m,) have strict rules which govern the possible values. Identify all allowable combinations of quantum numbers for an electron. n = 2, l = 1, mę = -1, mş = 1 n = 3, l = 1, mę = 1, mş = - Un = 2, l = 2, mẹ = 0, ms = - n = 5, l = 3, mẹ = -3, ms = - n = 4, l = 2, mẹ = 3, m, = + %3D O n = 3, l = -1, mẹ = 1, m, = -

1. A mercury atom emits light at many wavelengths, two of which are at (1) 404.7 nm and (2) 435.8 nm . Both of these transitions are to the same final state. Determine the energy of each emitted wavelength (in J).
True or false? In a hydrogen atom, an electron that passes from orbital 3s to 2p releases a photon of a different energy from an electron that passes from orbital 3d to 2s. Justify your answer in 1 sentence or 2.
The electron microscope uses the wave property of electrons to observe very small objects. A moving electron has a wavelength described by the de Broglie equation. What would be the kinetic energy, in J, of an electron with a wavelength of 0.485 nm, which would be equivalent to the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation in the X-ray region? (The mass of an electron is 9.11 × 10-28 g.)
