Tutorial 1: Topic 1 (Electronic structure of atoms)


Q1. Differentiate between Bohr Theory and Modern Atomic Theory.

Q2. The fall of an electron from the outer shell to an inner shell emits energy. The frequency
of the light emitted when an elctron falls from the fourth energy level to the first energy
level of the hydrogen atom is 4.118 1016 Hz. Calculate the energy differences in J and
kJ mol1 when the electron falls from the fourth energy level to the first energy level.
(Ans: 16441.47 kJ mol1)
[Apr 2017]

Q3. The cation of element A, carrying a charge of +3 is isoelectronic with neon.

(a) Identify element A.

(b) Write the orbital box notation and noble gas spdf notation for element A.

(c) List the four quantum numbers (n, l, ml and ms) for the valence electron in p
subshell. [Apr 2015]

Q4. (a) Specify the quantum number used to describe the following and state the
possible value(s) for each.

(i) orientation of orbital

(ii) spin of electron

(b) State the number of orbitals and electrons that can accommodate in the:

(i) shell with n = 5 (Ans: 25 orbitals, 50 electrons)

(ii) 3d subshell (Ans: 5 orbitals, 10 electrons)


Q5. (a) Are the following quantum numbers combination allowed? If not, show two
ways to correct them by changing at one time either one of the figures of l or ml
only:

(i) n = 2, l = 1, ml = 1 (ii) n = 3, l = 1, ml = 2

(b) Identify the element based on the electronic configuration and assign a set of
four quantum numbers (n, l, ml and ms) for the circled electrons in these noble
gas orbital box diagrams.

(i) (ii)
