Chapter 3, Problem 3.54SP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From La3+ ion, ground-state electron configurationhas to be given.

Concept introduction:

By using aufbau principle, electrons starts to occupy from orbitals with lower energy level. Thus, the obtained lower energy configuration is known as ground-state electron configuration.

Aufbau principle:

  • Electrons first occupy orbitals with lower energy than higher energy.
  • An orbital can be occupied only by two electrons having opposite spins.
  • Each electron fills each orbital till it is half filled, when they are degenerate orbital. This is called as Hund’s rule.
  • The order of electrons filling in an atom is given as
