18. How many unpaired electrons are present in the ground state of (i) P (Z = 15) (ii) Fe 2+ (Z = 26) (iii) Cl – (Z
= 17) ?
19. What is the maximum number of electrons that may be present in all the atomic orbitals with principal
quantum number 3 and azimuthal quantum number 2 ?
20. Hydrogen atom has only one electron, so mutual repulsion between electrons is absent. However, in
multielectron atoms mutual repulsion between the electrons is significant. How does this affect the
energy of an electron in the orbitals of the same principal quantum number in multielectron atoms?
21. Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Orbitals are regions or spaces where there is a maximum probability of finding electrons. Qualitatively,
these orbitals can be distinguished by their size, shape, and orientation. An orbital of small size means
there is more chance of finding the electron near the nucleus. Shape and orientation mean the
direction in which the probability of finding the electron is maximum. Atomic orbitals can be
distinguished by quantum numbers. Each orbital is designated by three quantum numbers n, l, and ml
(magnetic quantum number) which define energy, shape, and orientation but these are not sufficient
to explain spectra of multi-electrons atoms. Spin quantum number (ms ) determines the spin of
electrons. Spin angular momentum of the electron has two orientations relative to the chosen axis
which are distinguished by spin quantum numbers ms which can take values +1/2 and –1/2.
(i) How many orbitals are associated with n = 3?
(ii) Describe the orbitals represented by (i) n = 2, l = 1 (ii) n = 4, l = 0.
(iii) How many electrons are possible in an orbital? Why?
(iv) What are the shapes of ‘s’ and ‘p’ orbitals?
(v) Name two d-orbitals that are present on-axis.
