Three different lasers (A, B and C), each with a different wavelength, is focused on the same alkali metal. Laser A light has no effect on the metal. Light from laser B and C both cause electrons to be released from the metal, but the light from laser B releases more electrons. Which of the following statements must be true? The wavelength of A is less than B or C The intensity of B is greater than C The intensity of A is less than B or C The frequency of B is greater than C The frequency of A is less than B or C O The wavelength B is greater than C

Use what you know about the valence electron configuration of silver, Ag, to explain why it is a transition metal with a fixed charge (it always forms a +1 cation)
Imagine a universe where there are three spin states for the electron instead of two (for example, spin up, spin down, and spin cray-cray). The number of subshells per shell and number of orbitals per subshell stay the same, but an orbital now holds three electrons instead of two. The names of the elements stay the same. Draw the top three rows of what this new periodic table would look like, indicating which elements are in which groups in our new universe, and show the electron configurations of each of the elements of these three rows.
