Question
Cr forms two monatomic ions, Cr²+ and Cr³t. From which sublevels do you expect electrons are lost in
forming these ions? (Hint: It is possible for electrons other than those in the s and p sublevels to be involved in
forming ions.)
In forming the Cr*+ ion are:
electron(s) lost from the 4s orbital?
electron(s) lost from the 3d orbital?
To support your answer, complete the following. It is OK to use the noble gas core notation.
(Express your answer as a series of orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of Li would be entered in
1
complete form as 1s 2 2s
or in condensed form as [He]2s '.)
Electron configuration of Cr:
