You can tell that the atom is in the excited state because:
- Electron configuration should follow the 2-8-8-2 rule, meaning that the inner shell should be filled before the next shell can start holding electrons.
- Instead of the atom's electron configuration being in the ground state at 2-8-8-1, electrons from the second shell have jumped to the third.
0.0082 You have to equal out the amount of concentration with the unknown
The energy is transferred throughout the rest of the metal by the moving electrons. Metals are described as
malleable (can be beaten into sheets) and ductile (can be pulled out into wires). This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond.
C magnetic repulsion, forgive me if I’m wrong
