Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A brief report on lithium metallisted in table 12.6 should be prepared. In the report, the main ores of lithium should be listed, the method of obtaining metal from one of those ores should be described, some uses of the metal and properties should be explained.

Concept Introduction:

An ore is basically rock or sediment containing enough minerals having economically important elements such as metals. These metals can be extracted from the ore. The ores are extracted from the earth by the process called mining followed by refining to extract the valuable element.
The cost of mining of an ore depends on the concentration of mineral or metal in it and the form of its occurrence. Metals ores can be oxides, sulfides or silicates. Several geological processes are responsible for formation of ore bodies. The process of formation of ore is called ore genesis.

The electron of a hydrogen atom is excited to the 4d orbital. Calculate the energy of the emitted photon if the electron were to move to each of the following orbitals: (a) 1s; (b) 2p; (c) 2s; (d) 4s. (e) Suppose the outermost electron of a potassium atom were excited to a 4d orbital and then moved to each of these same orbitals. Describe qualitatively the differences that would be found between the emission spectra of potassium and hydrogen (do not perform calculations). Explain your answer.
Imagine a four-dimensional world. In it, atoms would have one s orbital and four p orbitals in a given shell. (a) Describe the shape of the Periodic Table of the first 24 elements. (b) What elements would be the first two noble gases (use the names from our world that correspond to the atomic numbers).
The electron affinity of thulium was measured by a technique called laser photodetachment electron spectroscopy. In this technique, a gaseous beam of anions of an element is bombarded with photons from a laser. The photons knock electrons off some of the anions, and the energies of the emitted electrons are detected. The incident radiation had a wavelength of 1064 nm, and the emitted electrons had an energy of 0.137 eV. Although the analysis is more complicated, we can obtain an estimate of the electron affinity from the energy difference between the photons and the emitted electrons. What is the electron affinity of thulium in electron volts and in kilojoules per mole?
