Write the electron configuration for the ground state of Hg" (mercury 2+). Use the noble gas shortcut. Since Canvas doesn't support superscripts and the like, type in the electron configuration with a space between each sublevel, and without special formatting. For example, [He]2s 2p2 would be typed in the answer box as "[He] 2s2 2p2". [Xel 4714 5d10

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?
Sketch an orbital contour that is expected for an electron that has n = 3 and = 2.
According to a relationship developed by Niels Bohr, for an atom or ion that has a single electron, the total energy, En, of an electron in a stable orbit of quantum number n is En = [Z2/n2] (2.179 1018 J) where Z is the atomic number. Calculate the ionization energy for the electron in a ground-state He+ ion.
