when an electron aborbs energy does it go to a higher or lower sublevel?
Q. For example if an electron on the 3d sublevel absorbed energy would it go to the 4p, 3p, or 2s sublevel?
Asked by krissy - Sun Nov 4 10:12:37 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It would go to a higher, in energy, sublevel. Which one would depend on the amount of energy it absorbed.

A. The pathway where the electron can be found is 1 difference ie...s,p,d or f orbital. Or the electrons may have different spins. Also a small difference in energy levels.

A. The electron configurations of elements like Cu are said to be anomalous. The predictions come from the Aufbau principle (lower energy orbitals are filled first). So according to this Cu should have a 3d^9, 4s^ 2 electron configuration. Experimental evidence tells us that it is 3d^10, 4s^1. The reasoning behind this is that the second electron configuration gives a complete d subshell. Filled subshells are almost like noble gas electron configurations (they are often called pseudo-noble gas configurations) so they are especially stable. This also happens for Cr, which as a 3d^5, 4s^1 configuration instead of 3d^4, 4s^2. The reason is that half filled subshells are also especially stable (one electron per orbital with the same spin… [cont.]

A. Question 1. The three common "series" of lines in the emission spectrum of H is the Balmer series which is for visible light (n=2), and the most common, the Paschen series which includes lines in the IR section where electrons are dropping to the third energy level (n=3), and the Lyman series which are lines in the UV part of the spectrum where electrons are returning the ground state (n=1). The answer to your question is "Lyman series". Question 2 is pretty much nonsense. Orbitals have a shape, but "electron cloud" is pretty generic and is usually used to represent the fact that electrons can be located outside of the nucleus. A better question would be about the shapes of the orbitals. The shapes represent the probabilities of… [cont.]

can someone clarify (hydrogen) energy levels?
Q. my teacher taught me that hydrogen has only 1 orbital (1s), but it has 4 energy levels that can be reached if energy is absorbed. and to add to that, each energy level is split into sublevels, which are supposedly the orbitals. can anyone clarify this to me? the way i think of it currently is hydrogen only have 1 orbital regularly (which is the 1s) but is able to gain other orbitals when more electrons are absorbed for a short amount of time before they are released as photons.
Asked by peewee672 - Mon Jan 12 02:33:46 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. when energy is absorbed by an atom, the number of electrons does not change. instead, the energy excites the existing electron and causes it to "jump" to an orbital that is higher in energy. that energy is then given off as light and the electron returns to its initial state.

The S subshell is partially filled... same holds for the rest.. the are going to have a valence electron shell 3s1 , 4s1.. etc Atomic radius decreases from right to left and bottom to top... this is because the electrons are more attracted to the nucleus as there is more atomic mass (more protons that attract electrons)Ne and Carbon are the smallest ones.But clearly, Neon, is to the far right, therefore it has a smallest raidus.
