What does wave-particle duality mean? What are its implications in our modem view of atomic structure?
Consider the representations of the p and d atomic orbitals in Figs. 2-15 and 2- 17. What do the + and signs indicate?
Suppose that the spin quantum number could have the values 12,0 and 12 . Assuming that the rules governing the values of the other quantum numbers and the order of filling sublevels were unchanged, (a) what would be the electron capacity of an s sublevel? a p sublevel? a d sublevel? (b) how many electrons could fit in the n=3 level? (c) what would be the electron configuration of the element with atomic number 8? 17?
Suppose that the spin quantum number did not exist, and therefore only one electron could occupy each orbital of a many-electron atom. Give the atomic numbers of the first three noble-gas atoms in this case.
What are quantum numbers? What information do we get from the quantum numbers n, l, and ml? We define a spin quantum number (ms), but do we know that an electron literally spins?
Using the Bohr model, determine the energy in joules of the photon produced when an electron in a L2+ ion moves from the orbit with n = 2 to the orbit with n = 1.
The figure below represents part of the emission spectrum for a one-electron ion in lhe gas phase. All the lines result from electronic transitions from excited states to the n = 3 state. (See Exercise 160.) a. What electronic transitions correspond to lines A and B? b. If the wavelength of line B is 142.5 nm, calculate the wavelength of line A.
One 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?
Answer the following questions, assuming that ms, could have three values rather than two and that the rules for n, l, and ml are the normal ones. a. How many electrons would an orbital be able to hold? b. How many elements would the first and second periods in the periodic table contain? c. How many elements would be contained in the first transition metal series? d. How many electrons would the set of 4f orbitals be able to bold?
