What does it mean when the electrons are excited?
They are in a higher energy orbital than the ground state.
What element has three unpaired electrons in its p orbital?
The elements in group 15 Nitrogen, N; Phosphorus, P; Arsenic, As; Antimony, Sb and Bismuth, Bi all have a ground state with 3 unpaired electrons in p orbitals.
What is the ground state electron configuration of the element Lanthanum?
[Xe]6s24f1
How many unpaired electrons does nitrogen have in its ground state?
3 electrons. This can be told from the periodic table. These electrons are in the 2p orbital.
What element has the outer electron configuration 6s2 4f8?
No element has this as the ground state. Gadolinium has the right number of electrons but its ground state is [Xe] 4f7 5d1 6s2. The second number in each group should be a superscript.
Is The 9i orbital permitted?
There is technically a 9i orbital, but no atom in the ground state has any electrons in this orbital (in fact, no known element has any electrons in even the 8s orbital, and there are quite a few energy levels between that and 9i). In an excited state ... sure, it could happen.
When an electron is in its normal orbital it is said to be in its?
ground state
What is the ground state electronic orbital configuration for sodium?
The ground state electron configuration for sodium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
What does it mean when the electrons are excited?
They are in a higher energy orbital than the ground state.
What is the total number of electrons found in the valence shell of an alkaline earth element in the ground state?
less than 2 (1)
How is an atomic spectra produced?
Electrons move between different energy levels in an atom. When electrons are in the lowest orbital, otherwise known as the ground state, they eventually progress into the highest orbital, also known as the excited state. When electrons move from the excited state back to the lowest orbital, they emit energy in the form of light that varies in colors, depending on the element. Some of these forms of light may not always be visible to the naked eye.
What is the name of the state of the electrons when the electrons have not gained any energy and they are resting comfortably in the lowest possible orbital?
Ground state.
How many electrons are in the outer orbit of silver?
C = 1s2,2s2,2p2 so the outermost (2p) orbital has 2 electrons in Ground State
Which element has 45 electrons in its ground state?
Rhodium
What element has three unpaired electrons in its p orbital?
The elements in group 15 Nitrogen, N; Phosphorus, P; Arsenic, As; Antimony, Sb and Bismuth, Bi all have a ground state with 3 unpaired electrons in p orbitals.
How many orbitals in a phosphorus atom?
There are 9 occupied orbitals in a phosphorus atom's ground state: one 1s orbital, one 2s orbital, three 2p orbitals, one 3s orbital, and three 3p orbitals.
What is the symbol of the first element to have an electron in the 4d sublevel in its ground state?
The element is Yttrium, with the symbol Y
