Chapter 15, Problem 50E
[6.104] In the experiment shown schematically below, a beam of neutral atoms is passed through a magnetic field. Atoms that have unpaired electrons are deflected in different directions in the magnetic field depending on the value of the electron spin quantum number. In the experiment illustrated, we envision that a beam of hydrogen atoms splits into two beams.
a. What is the significance of the observation that the single beam splits into two beams?

b. What do you think would happen if the strength of the magnet were increased?
c. What do you think would happen if the beam of hydrogen atoms were replaced with a beam ofhelium atoms? Why?
d. The relevant experiment was first performed by Otto Stern and Walter Gerlach in 1921. They used a beam of Ag atoms in the experiment. By considering the electron configuration of a silver atom, explain why the single beam splits into two beams.

- The lithium ion, Li2+, could be expected to have energy levels close to those of hydrogen atom. This is so because lithium atom has a closed n=1 shell with two electrons and then one electron outside. Also the outer electron looks inward at just one net positive charge. The energy levels of the Li2+ are given by the equation En = -11808 / n2 kJ/mole n = 1, 2, 3, ... Calculate the energy in kJ/mole for the first lowest energy level of the Li2+ ion E1, Second lowest E2, third lowest E3, and fourth lowest E4 in kJ/molearrow_forwardIs the following statement true of false? If you think the statement is false, rewrite it to make it true. One implication of Pauli exclusion principle is that since an provitamins can hold only two electrons, the electrons in the same orbital must have opposite spins of +1/2 and -1/2.arrow_forwardCompared to their neutral atom counterparts, ions will have smaller or larger atomic radii due to their losing or gaining electrons. According to Jensen (2010), Linus Pauling assigned the radius of the oxygen anion (O“) at 140 pm (larger than the neutral atom, 66 pm). On the other hand, the magnesium atom loses 95 ppm from its 160 ppm radius when it loses two valence electrons, forming the magnesium ion. Determine the value of constant A in N-m2arrow_forward
