a. When an atom is at its lowest energy, we say it is in the "ground state". But this lowest energy does not correspond to an atom with all the electrons in the n =1 (lowest) energy level. The Pauli exclusion principlestates that no two electrons can have completely identical properties. Some of the properties to consider are position, momentum, angular momentum, and energy. Electrons in the same atom are roughly at the same position, so if they have the same energy they have to have different values of some other quantity like angular momentum. But these other quantities are quantized too, so only certain combinations of properties can exist inside atoms.
Short : It violates pauli's exculsion principle.
b. Because both of them have the same no. of electrons in their valence orbit. (1). Both of them have same l,m but different n
5. a) In a mutlielectron atom, the electrons are not all in the lowest ( n...
4, a. Why does the second line of the Periodic Table contain cight entries? b. Why are the left hand parts of this line valence positive and the right hand parts valence negative? c. Why is the position of Lithium in the Periodic Table directly below that of Hydrogen?
The valence electrons of an atom are at the lowest energy level because their increased distance from the nucleus reduces their attraction to the atom's protons. true O false
9.6 A hydrogen atom in its ground state (n = 1) is excited to the n = 5 level by absorbing photons. It then makes a transition to the n = 3 level and then from n = 3 level directly to the ground level. (a) What is the wavelength of absorbed photon? (b) What are the wavelengths of the emitted photons? [Answer: (a) 95 nm, (b) 1282 nm and 103 nm] Please show work and explain how. I do...

How many electrons in an atom could have these sets of quantum numbers? n=3 electrons n=5,l = 2 5,1 = 2 electrons n=7,1 = 3, mÄ™ = -1 electrons
Electrons in an unknown atom(not hydrogen) are excited from the ground state to the n=3 energy level. As these electrons make quantum jumps back to the ground state, photons of three different energies are emitted. The most energetic photon has an associated wavelength of 62.2 nm and the least energetic photon has an associated wavelength of 207 nm. What is the associated wavelength of the other type pf photon? The answer is 3-1 (20 eV), 3-2 (6 eV) and 2-1...

1a) Electrons in an atom are more stable than free electrons. This is why the energy levels of electrons in atoms are negative (free electrons are defined as having an energy of zera). Calculate the energy of a hydrogen. electron in the 4" shell, in J. b) Calculate this energy in kl/mole. 2. Calculate the energy for nu1, 2, 3, and 5 as well. Graph these energy levels in Joules, including n-5, in your lab...
