Question

Identify the set of allowed quantum numbers (n, l, ml, ms).

n = 3

l = 3

ml = 3

ms = +1/2

n = 2

l = 1

ml = -1

ms = +1/2

n = 1

l = 2

ml = 0

ms = -1/2

n = 1

l = 2

ml = -2

ms = +1/2

Identify the correct electron configuration for the ion after one electron has been removed.

lithium ion = 1s1

magnesium ion = [Ne] 4s1

potassium ion = [Ar] 4s2

sodium ion = [Ne]

Which statement is TRUE?

Electrons may be used to excite an atom. The electron is destroyed in this process.

For the hydrogen atom, as the principal quantum number n increases, the energy levels converge (get closer in energy). An identical pattern is found for Hg, He, and Na.

Photons are emitted as electrons move from a higher to a lower energy level.

Photons emitted from a discharge lamp for a particular element can have any energy.

n = 3

l = 3

ml = 3

ms = +1/2

n = 2

l = 1

ml = -1

ms = +1/2

n = 1

l = 2

ml = 0

ms = -1/2

n = 1

l = 2

ml = -2

ms = +1/2

Explanation / Answer

4.(b)

n = 2

l = 1

ml = -1

ms = +1/2

All others are wrong because for n=x we can have maximum l of x-1

5.sodium ion = [Ne]
Because: Neon has 10 electron and so does Na+
6.Photons are emitted as electrons move from a higher to a lower energy level.
