This is a multiple question and here are all the answers.

Qestion 1.) Which is not a permissible set of quantum numbers? Identify the subshell (if the quantum numbers identify a possible state).

I. n = 2, ℓ = 0, mℓ = 0

II. n = 3, ℓ = 2, mℓ = 2

III. n = 2, ℓ = 1, mℓ = –1

IV. n = 3, ℓ = 3, mℓ = 0

V. n = 4, ℓ = 3, mℓ = –3

Answer:

  • The combination that is not permissible is IV. n = 3, ℓ = 3, mℓ = 0.

  • Se below to identify the subshells.

Explanation:

The electrons are identified by a set of four quantum numbers.

The first quantum number, n, is the principal quantum number and it tells the shell. The second quantum number,ℓ , is the azymuthal quantum number and it tells the subshell.

The letters used to indicate the subshells are:

  s:  ℓ  = 0

  p:  ℓ  = 1

  d:  ℓ  = 2

  f:  ℓ  = 3

The third and fourth quantum numbers are mℓ (magnetic quantum number) and s (spin).

The rules that apply to predict which quantum numbers are possible are:

  • n: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 (an integer greater than 0)

  • ℓ: 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., n-1 (an integer less than n)

  • mℓ: an integer from - ℓ to + ℓ

  • s: - 1/2 or +1/2

Two electrons in an atom cannot have the same set of 4 quantum numbers.

With that:

I. n = 2, ℓ = 0, mℓ = 0

  • This combination of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ  to - ℓ.

  • The combination n = 2 and ℓ = 0 means the subshell is 2p.

   

II. n = 3, ℓ = 2, mℓ = 2

  • This combination of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ  to - ℓ.

  • The combination n = 3 and ℓ = 2 means the subshell is 3d.

III. n = 2, ℓ = 1, mℓ = –1

  • This combination of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ  to - ℓ.

  • The combination n = 2 and ℓ = 1 means the subshell is 2p.

IV. n = 3, ℓ = 3, mℓ = 0

  • This set of three quantum numbers is not permissible, since ℓ = 3 is not less than n = 3.

V. n = 4, ℓ = 3, mℓ = –3

  • This set of three quantum numbers is permissible, since n is a positive integer, ℓ is less than n, and mℓ is in the interval +ℓ  to - ℓ.

  • The combination n = 4 and ℓ = 3 means the subshell is 4f.

Question 2.)What is the difference between the 2pz and the 3pz orbitals? Which quantum numbers in the orbital designation are different? Which will be the same? What does this indicate about the orbitals?

Answer:

The difference between    2p_z    and    3p_z    (note that the letter z is a subscript) is in the first quantum number.

The first quantum number indicates the main energy level and so it is related with the size of the orbital.

So, the 3pz orbital is bigger than the 2pz orbital.

The second quantum number is related to the letter p, so the same letter indicates the same shape of the orbital. Remember the table for the letters used to indicate the subshells are:

  s:  ℓ  = 0

  p:  ℓ  = 1

  d:  ℓ  = 2

  f:  ℓ  = 3

So, the scond quantum number for the two orbitals is ℓ  = 1.

The subscript indicates the space orientation. So, since both orbitals have the same subscript, z, they have the same orientation.

In conclusion, the only difference between those orbitals is the size of the orbitals, but they have the same shape and orientation.

3.)What is the maximum number of electrons that can have n = 3 and ms = + ½ ?

Answer:

  • 9 electrons

Explanation:

Using the rules,  for n = 3

  • ℓ can be 0, 1, or 2;

  • mℓ can be 0 for ℓ = 0,  

  • mℓ can be -1, 0, or -1 for  for ℓ = 1, and

  • mℓ can be -2, -1, 0, +1, or +2 for ℓ = 2,

You can get the possible sets of quantum numbers (with n = 3):

  • (3, 0, 0, +1/2)
  • (3, 0, 0, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, 0, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, 0, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, 1, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, 1, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, -1, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, -1, -1/2)
  • (3, 2, 0, +1/2)
  • (3, 2, 0, -1/2)
  • (3, 2, -2, +1/2)
  • (3, 2, -2, -1/2)
  • (3, 2, -1, +1/2)
  • (3, 2, -1, -1/2)
  • (3, 2, 1, +1/2)
  • (3, 2, 1, -1/2)
  • (3, 2, 2, +1/2)
  • (3, 2, 2, -1/2)

So, those are a total of 18 electrons from which half have n = 3 and ms = +1/2.

Hence, 9 electrons can have n = 3 and ms = +1/2.

Explain why the other types of decay are not considered fission
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

As with cluster decay, alpha decay is not typically categorized as a process of fission. The first nuclear fission process discovered was fission induced by neutrons. Because cosmic rays produce some neutrons, it was difficult to distinguish between induced and spontaneous events.

Which of the following is a way in which elements and compounds are similar?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Compound Element

Definition: A compound contains atoms of different elements chemically combined together in a fixed ratio.

Definition: An element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atom.

Elements and compounds are purely homogeneous substances and they have a constant composition throughout. Elements and compounds cannot be separated into their respective constituents by physical means. Compounds and mixtures are made up of different elements or different atoms.

Hopefully this helps you!!!!

Which particle has a mass of approximately 1 atomic mass unit?
labwork [276]
The answer is D) a neutron.

When we say an atom's mass is, like 5 atomic mass units actually we are saying that the total number of the neutrons and protons in its nucleus is 5.

The mass of a neutron and a proton is each one atomic mass unit.

Mass of a neutron is approximately 1 atomic mass unit.
