Chapter 3 introduced the concept of a double bond between carbon atoms, represented by C=C , with a length near 1.34 Å. The motion of an electron in such a bond can be treated crudely as motion in a one-dimensional box. Calculate the energy of an electron in each of its three lowest allowed states if it is confined to move in a one-dimensional box of length 1.34 Å. Calculate the wavelength of light necessary to excite the electron from its ground state to the first excited state.
Suppose that the spin quantum number had three allowed values (ms=0,+12,12) . Give the atomic numbers of the first three noble-gas atoms in this case.
Do atoms in excited states emit radiation randomly, at any wavelength? Why? What does it mean to say that the hydrogen atom has only certain discrete energy levels available? How do we know this? Why was the quantization of energy levels surprising to scientists when it was first discovered?

I'm reviewing for my final. This is an old problem that I got correct (option a), but I can't remember how. I know that SeCl2 is AX2E2, which is sp3, but I'm stuck trying to figure out how I chose option a and not option b. How do I know the difference in the amount of arrows (e-) in the p orbital boxes? Thanks :)
