It seems like the answer is C, you really just need to use the process of elimination.
Answer:
The arrangement of the periodic table leads us to visualize certain trends among the atoms.
Elements are arranged from left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number.
The vertical columns (groups) of the periodic table are arranged so that all its elements have the same number of valence electrons (outer ring). All elements within a certain group share similar properties.
The rows are called periods. All elements in a row have the same number of electron shells.
First, we need to calculate the principal quantum number n for this electron, using the equation:
E = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
where E is the energy that is used to bound the electron (here, E = - 0.544 eV).
- 0.544 eV = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
n x n = (- 13.60 eV) / (- 0.544 eV)
n x n = 25
n = 5
The orbital radius that is equal to the radius of a hydrogen atom is calculated using the equation:
r = 0.053 nm x n x n
r = 0.053 nm x 5 x 5
r = 0.053 nm x 25
r = 1.325 nm
