- A nonmetallic element, R, burns brightly in air to give the oxide R4O10. If R is in Period 3, what is the ground-state valence-shell configuration of the atom?arrow_forwardCesium was discovered in natural mineral waters in 1860 by R. W. Bunsen and G. R. Kirchhoff, using the spectroscope they invented in 1859. The name came from the Latin caesius ("sky blue") because of the prominent blue line observed for this element at 455.5 nm. Calculate the frequency and energy of a photon of this light.arrow_forwardThe ionization energy of rubidium is 403 kJ/mol. Do x-rays with a wavelength of 85 nm have sufficient energy to ionize rubidium?arrow_forward
- The electron affinity of the lutetium atom (element 71) was measured using the technique of photoelectron spectroscopy with an infrared laser (the essay on p. 310 describes this instrumental method, using X rays). In this experiment, a beam of lutetium negative ions, Lu, was prepared and irradiated with a laser beam having a wavelength at 1064 nm. The energy supplied by a photon in this laser beam removes an electron from a negative ion, leaving the neutral atom. The energy needed to remove the electron from the negative ion to give the neutral atom (both in their ground states) is the electron affinity of lutetium. Any excess energy of the photon shows up as kinetic energy of the emitted electron. If the emitted electron in this experiment has a kinetic energy of 0.825 eV, what is the electron affinity of lutetium?arrow_forwardWhich is higher in energy, the 2s or 2p orbital, in hydrogen? Is this also true for helium? Explain.arrow_forwardA metallic element reacts vigorously with water, evolving hydrogen gas. An excited atom of this element has its outer electron in the 3p orbital.

(c) What is the maximum value of that is allowed in the shell with n = 3? (d) What are the values of n and for a 3p subshell? Give all allowed values of the m quantum number for this subshell.arrow_forwardSpectroscopists have observed He+ in outer space. This ion is a one-electron species like a neutral hydrogen atom. Calculate the energy of the photon emitted for the transition from the n = 5 to the n = 3 state in this ion using the equation: En = − Z2/n2 (2.179 × 10−18 J). Z is the positive charge of the nucleus and n is the principal quantum number. In what part of the electromagnetic spectrum does this radiation lie?arrow_forward
