Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explain…
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.

Chapter 2, Problem 2.95SP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason of lower atomic weight of iodine should be explained in comparison to tellurium.

Concept introduction:

The atomic number is obtained by the number of protons in any atom. However, the atomic weight is calculated as an average of the atomic weight of all the isotopes of the same atom.

Given:

Atomic weight of iodine =126.90

Atomic weight of tellurium =127.60

Atomic number of iodine =53

Atomic number of tellurium =52

To explain:

Iodine has a lower atomic weight than tellurium even though it has a higher atomic number.
