- Although no currently known elements contain electrons in g orbitals in the ground state, it is possible that these elements will be found or that electrons in excited states of known elements could being orbitals. For g orbitals, the value of l is 4. What is the lowest value of n for which g orbitals could exist? What are tile possible values of ml? How many electrons could a set of g orbitals hold?arrow_forwardWhich atom would be expected to have a half-filled 4s subshell?arrow_forwardWhat type of electron orbital (i.e., s, p, d, or f) is designated by an electron with quantum numbers (a) n=1,l=0,m l =0(b) n=3,l=2,m l =1? (c) n=4,l=3,m l =3arrow_forward
- Which atom would be expected to have a half-filled 6p subshell?arrow_forwardThe number of unpaired electrons in the outer subshell of a phosphorus atom atomic number 15 is: a. 2 b. 0 c. 3 d. 1arrow_forwardWe can represent both probability and radial probability versus distance from the nucleus for a hydrogen ls orbital as depicted below. What does each graph tell us about the electron in a hydrogen 1s orbital?arrow_forward
- The following are orbital diagrams for presumed ground-state atoms. Several, though, violate Paulis principle or Hunds rule Which of the these follow both Paulis principle and Hunds rule, and which violate one or the other (state whether Paulis principle or Hunds rule is violated)? a b c d earrow_forwardThe periodic table consists of four blocks of elements that correspond to s, p, d, and f orbitals being filled. After f orbitals come g and h orbitals In theory, if a g block and an h block of elements existed, bow long would the rows of g and h elements be in this theoretical periodic table?arrow_forwardOne bit of evidence that the quantum mechanical model is correct lies in the magnetic properties of matter. Atoms with unpaired electrons are attracted by magnetic fields and thus are said to exhibit pararamagnetism. The degree to which this effect is observed is directly related to the number of unpaired electrons present in the atom. Consider the ground-state electron configurations for Li, N, Ni, Te, Ba, and Hg. Which of these atoms would be expected to be paramagnetic, and how many unpaired electrons are present in each paramagnetic atom?arrow_forward
- Explain in your own words what is meant by (a) the Pauli exclusion principle. (b) Hund's rule. (c) a line in an atomic spectrum. (d) the principal quantum number.arrow_forwardConsider the orbitals shown here in outline. (a) What is the maximum number of electrons contained in an orbital of type (x)? Of type (y)? Of type (z)? (b) How many orbitals of type (x) are found in a shell with n=2? How many of type (y)? How many of type (z)? (c) Write a set of quantum numbers for an electron in an orbital of type (x) in a shell with n=4, of an orbital of type (y) in a shell with n=2. Of an orbital of type (z) in a shell with n=3. (d) What is the smallest possible n value for an orbital of type (x)? Of type (y)? Of type (z)? (e) What are the possible I and ml values for an orbital of type (x)? Of type (y)? Of type (z)?arrow_forwardWould you expect the Valence electrons of rubidium and strontium to reside in the 5s or the 4d orbitals? Why?arrow_forward
