Electron Configurations

        Help!  

Question
Answer
The arrangement of electrons in an atom is known as   the atom’s electron configuration  
🗑
The lowest energy arrangement of the electrons for each element is called   the element’s ground-state electron configuration  
🗑
What principle states that an electron occupies the lowest-energy orbital that can receive it   Aufbau principle  
🗑
no two electrons in the same atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers is what principle   Pauli exclusion principle  
🗑
The Pauli Exclusion principal,angular momentum, and magnetic quantum numbers specify what   the energy, shape, and orientation of an orbital  
🗑
Whose rule says orbitals of equal energy are each occupied by one electron before any orbital is occupied by a second electron, and all electrons in singly occupied orbitals must have the same spin state.   Hund’s rule  
🗑
In orbital notation, an unoccupied orbital is represented by   a line, , with the orbital’s name written underneath the line  
🗑
An orbital containing one electron is represented as   ↑  
🗑
An orbital containing two electrons is represented as   ↑↓  
🗑
The lines are labeled with the principal quantum number and   sublevel letter.  
🗑
How is the Electron-configuration notation different form orbital notation   eliminates the lines and arrows of orbital notation. Instead, the number of electrons in a sublevel is shown by adding a superscript to the sublevel designation  
🗑
What does the superscript indicate   The superscript indicates that one electron is present  
🗑
The highest-occupied energy level is   the electron-containing main energy level with the highest principal quantum number  
🗑
electrons that are not in the highest-occupied energy level.   inner-shell electrons  
🗑
The Group 18 elements are called the   noble gases.  
🗑
Name the Group 18 elements   helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon  
🗑
an outer main energy level occupied, in most cases, by eight electrons   noble-gas configuration  
🗑
The arrangement of electrons in an atom is   Electron configuration  
🗑
The lowest-energy arrangement of the electrons for each element   Ground-state electron configuration  
🗑
The electron containing main energy level with the highest principle quantum number   Highest occupied energy level  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
