How many node are present in 4f orbital?
three nodes
How many types of orbitals are in the sixth shell?
There are 36 types of orbitals in the sixth shell.
Which orbital electron has the highest energy?
I would think the s orbital, because it is closer to the nucleus, and because the outer energy level holds more energy than the inner ones.
Which orbitals are characteristics of the lanthanide elements?
Lanthanides are in the '4 f ' block (of the so-called 'secundairy transitionals', atom number 58 to 71) filling up 4f orbital (1 to 14 electrons)
Why electrons are removed first from 5d than 4f orbital in lanthanides?
They are further away from the nucleus and easier to remove (requires less energy), i.e. first ionization is less.
according to the Aufbau principle, what orbital is filled after the 6s orbital?
4f orbital
How many node are present in 4f orbital?
three nodes
Which is the lowest energy level having f orbital?
4f
What is the atomic number of the first element to start filling an f sub-level?
The element cerium has a single electron in the 4f orbital. Its electron configuration is [Xe] 4f1 5d1 6s2.
Why does one electron in a rubidium atom occupy a 5s orbital rather than a 4d or 4f orbital?
in 5s it is filled but in 4d or 4s its half
What subshell have the higher energy 4s4p4dor 4f?
4f subshell has the highest energy. A f subshell has the highest energy among all the subshells in any shell.
How many types of orbitals are in the sixth shell?
There are 36 types of orbitals in the sixth shell.
Which orbital electron has the highest energy?
I would think the s orbital, because it is closer to the nucleus, and because the outer energy level holds more energy than the inner ones.
Which orbitals are characteristics of the lanthanide elements?
Lanthanides are in the '4 f ' block (of the so-called 'secundairy transitionals', atom number 58 to 71) filling up 4f orbital (1 to 14 electrons)
What does the third quantum number (l) describe?
The specific orbital within a sublevel- apex
Why electrons are removed first from 5d than 4f orbital in lanthanides?
They are further away from the nucleus and easier to remove (requires less energy), i.e. first ionization is less.
What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the n equals 4 energy level?
there are 16 orbitals in a n=4 shell *since there are 2 electrons in each orbital, that makes 32 electrons total here
