Interpretation:
The increasing order of orbitals
Concept Introduction:
The acceptable wave function is characterized by a set of four quantum numbers. These The acceptable wave function is characterized by a set of four quantum numbers. These quantum numbers are related to the shape, size of the electron wave and the location of the electron in space.
1. These quantum numbers are represented by
2. The notation of subshell is used to determine by a combination of both principal quantum number and angular quantum number. In notation, numerical values of
3. The quantum number
4. The quantum number

- For the following pairs of orbitals, indicate which is lower in energy in a many-electron atom. (a) 3d or 4s (b) 4f or 3d (c) 2s or 2P d) 4f or 4darrow_forward• identify an orbital (as 1s, 3p, etc.) from its quantum numbers, or vice versa.arrow_forward• list the number of orbitals of each type (1s, 3p, etc) in an atom.arrow_forward
- Suppose that the spin quantum number did not exist, and therefore only one electron could occupy each orbital of a many-electron atom. Give the atomic numbers of the first three noble-gas atoms in this case.arrow_forwardState which of the following orbitals cannot exist according to the quantum theory: 3p, 4s, 2f, and 1p.
