Consider hydrogen atom in an excited state of 3s1. What is the energy of its electron

Chemistry

SVEN [57.7K]4 years ago
8 0

<u>Given:</u>

Excited state electron configuration of H atom = 3s¹

<u>To determine:</u>

Energy of the electron in this state

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy 'E' of an electron in a hydrogen atom occupying a level, 'n' is given by the formula:

En = -E₀/n²

where, E₀ is the ground state energy = 13.6 eV

n = principle quantum number i.e. n = 1,2,3...

Therefore,

En = -13.6/n² eV

In this case for a 3s¹ configuration, n = 3

E = -13.6/(3)² = -1.51 eV

Ans: Energy of the electron in a 3s1 state is -1.51 eV

What is the purpose of writing Shorthand Electron Configuration Using Noble Gases?<br> 30 POINTS!
aivan3 [116]

The noble gas configuration system helps to shorten the total electron configuration by using the symbol for the noble gas that lies before the particular element in the periodic table.  

For example:

Na has atomic number 11

Electron configuration of Na: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

Noble gas electron configuration of Na: [Ne] 3s1

Ne has atomic number 10 and lies before Na in the periodic table.

You have 4 moles of a gas in a 50 L container held at 2 atm pressure. Currently the temperature is 27 ºC. R = 0.0821 L*atm/(mol*
Mariulka [41]
The formula used for determining gas pressure, volume and temperature interaction would be PV=nRT. 

<span>• What is the temperature in Kelvins?
</span>You already right at this part. Kelvin temperature formula from celsius should be:
K= C+273.15= 
<span>K= 27 +273.15 = 300.15 
It is important to remember that the formula in this question is using Kelvin unit at temperature, not Celcius or Fahrenheit.
</span>
<span>• Assuming that everything else remains constant, what will happen to the pressure if the temperature decreases to -15 ºC?
</span>In this case, the temperature is decreased from 27C into -15C and you asked the change in the pressure.
Using PV=nRT formula, you can derive that the temperature will be directly related to pressure. If the temperature decreased, the pressure will be decreased too. 

<span> If you increase the number of moles to 6 moles, increase temperature to 400K and reduce the volume to 25 L, what will the new pressure be?
</span>PV=nRT
P= nRT/V
P= 6 moles* <span>0.0821 L*atm/(mol*K) * 400K/25L= 7.8816 atm</span>
