To calculate:
(a) the number of sub-shells for n = 2
(b) the electron states n = 2
(c) the number of sub-shells for n = 5
(d) the electron states n = 5
Answer to Problem 1Q
Solution:
(a) For n = 2, it has 2 sub shells.
(b) For n = 2, there will be 8 electron states.
(c) For n = 5, it has 5 sub shells.
(d) For n = 5, there will be 50 electron states
Explanation of Solution
For a given quantum number n there are n possible values of l, ranging from 0 to n −1.
For each l the number of possible electron states with ml values is (2l + 1).
For each ml the electron can have two different spin orientations.
Thus, the total number of electron states for a given l is given by Nl = 2(2 l+ 1).
(e) For n = 2, it has 2 sub shells.
(f) For n = 2, the number of electrons 2n2, there will be 8 electron states.
(g) For n = 5, it has 5 sub shells.
(h) For n = 5, the number of electrons 2n2, there will be 50 electron states
Conclusion
For an l quantum number, there are (2l+1) number of possible ml values.

Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets? (c) To reach Mars from the…arrow_forward
