quantum numbers

Question 1

n

Answer 1

main principle number

Question 2

l

Answer 2

angular quantum number (shape)

Question 3

ml

Answer 3

magnetic quantum number

Question 4

ms

Answer 4

spin

Question 5

shell

Answer 5

energy level, n value, distance from nucleus

Question 6

subshell

Answer 6

shape (s,p,d,f)

Question 7

orbital

Answer 7

ml value (2 electrons)

Question 8

orbit vs orbital

Answer 8

orbit- fixed path an electron follows

orbital- an area where the probability of finding an electron can be calculated; general vicinity of where an electron can be found

Question 9

copper

chromium

Answer 9

copper: 4s^1 3d^10

chromium: 4s^1 3d^5

Question 10

ion charges

Answer 10

Pb as an ion: (Xe) 6s^2 4f^11 5d^10 6p^2

• Pb can lose the 6p^2 easily, and it can also lose the 6s^ 2, to give it a 4+ charge

Question 11

what situation might be true for 2 electrons to occupy the same orbital?

Answer 11

spins have to be the opposite

Question 12

each element has a continuous

Answer 12

line spectrum
