Max Planck stated that matter can emit/absorb energy only in whole number multiples, this give rise to the idea of energy being________

quantized

100

The symbol Ml is associated with which quantum number?

magnetic quantum number

100

Give the noble gas core electron configuration for Bismuth (Bi)

[Xe] 6s2, 4f14, 5d10, 6p3

100

Arrange the following in increasing atomic size; Mg, Li, F

F, Li, Mg

200

What are line spectra?

Light from elements that, when separated with a prism, produces only discrete lines of color and not the full "rainbow".

200

What is the mathematical restrictions for the angular momentum quantum number?

0......(n-1)

200

What are degenerate orbitals?

any orbitals with the same energy level

200

What is the normal trend for ionization energy?

Increases from left to right and from the bottom to the top.

300

Name one idea from the Bohr model that still apply today in our understanding of orbitals.

1) discrete energy levels (quantum numbers)

2) energy gain/released when moving between levels 

300

What can you learn from the value of the angular momentum quantum number?

shape if the orbitals (s, p, d, f)

300

What is the number of valence electrons in the Hf2+-ion?

10

300

Which element has the lowest (most negative) electron affinity and why? C or N

C - because adding an electron to N will result in the first p-orbital pairing of electrons, thus repulsion and increase of energy.  

400

What is the basic idea of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle? 

location and momentum of electron not known at the same time.

400

What are the values for the four quantum numbers for the 90th electron?

n = 5

l = 3

ml = +2 or -2

ms = +1/2

400

Which quantum number can best be used to explain Pauli,s exclusion principle?

Spin quantum number (+1/2 or -1/2) = only two electrons per orbital and with opposite spin

400

What is the Zeff for the 4S electron on Selenium?

6.95

Zeff = Z - S

      = 34 - [(5x0.35) + (18x0.85) + (10x1)]

      = 34 - 27.05  = 6.95
