- What is the electron configuration of the Ba3+ ion? Suggest a reason why this ion is not normally found in nature.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is(are) true? a. F has a larger first ionization energy than does Li. b. Cations are larger than their parent atoms. c. The removal of the first electron from a lithium atom (electron configuration is ls2 2s1 ) is exothermic-that is, removing this electorn gives off energy. d. The He atom is larger than the H+ ion. e.

- What is meant by the term nuclear charge? How does the effective nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons of an atom vary going from left to right across a period of the periodic table? 3. If each core electron was totally effective in shielding the valence electrons from the full charge of the nucleus and the valence electrons provided no shielding effect for each other, what would be the effective nuclear charge acting on a valence electron in (a.)
