An electron is excited from the n=1 ground state to the n=3 state in a hydrogen atom. Which of the following statements is/are true? Correct the false statements to make them true. a. It takes more energy to ionize (completely remove) the electron from n=3 than from the ground state. b. The electron is farther from the nucleus on average in the n=3 state than in the n=1 state. c. The wavelength of light emitted if the electron drops from n=3 to n=2 will be shorter than the wavelength of light emitted if the electron falls from n=3 to n =1. d. The wavelength of light emitted when the electron returns o the ground state from n =3 will be the same as the wavelength of light absorbed to go from n = 1 to n = 3 . e. For n = 3, the electron is in the first excited state.
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 explaining the structure of an atom.
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.
