Question
please do it asap
Suppose you take a trip to a distant universe and find that the periodic table there is derived from an arrangement of quantum numbers different from the one on Earth. The rules in that universe are: principal quantum number n = 1, 2,... (as on Earth); angular momentum quantum number t - 0, 1, 2,..., n- 1 (as on Earth); magnetic quantum number m( = 0,1, 2,..., ( (only positive integers up to and including t are allowed); spin quantum number ms = -1, 0, +1 (that is, three allowed values of spin). Assuming that the Pauli exclusion principle remains valid in the distant universe, what is the maximum number of electrons that can populate a given orbital there? Write the electronic configuration of the element with atomic number 8 in the periodic table. Formatting: superscript numbers where appropriate but omit parentheses. What is the atomic number of the second noble gas?
