The enrgy level fo 4s-orbital is less than 3d- orbital because :

A

4s-orbital is more near to nucleus than 3d-orbital

B

4s-orbital penetrates more into the nucleus than 3d-orbital

C

4s-orbital can have only two elecrrons whereas 3d can have 10 electrons

D

4s-orbital is spherical and 3d-orbital is doulbe dumb-bell

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

4s-prnotal have three small peaks closer to nucleus in addition to 4th higher peak and thus penerates more in nucleus .

4s orbitals has less energy than 3d orbital

While filling up of electrons in the atomic orbitals, the 4s orbital is filled before the 3d orbital but reverse happens during the ionisation of the atom. Explain why?

Assertion (A) : When the transition element ionises, the 4s -orbital electrons are removed before the 3d -orbital electrons. Reason (R ) : The energy of 3d -orbital electrons is lower than that of 4s -orbital electrons.

STATEMENT-1 : The 19^(th) electron in potassium atom enters into 4s-orbital than in 3d-orbital. and STATEMENT-2 : (n+1l) rule is followed for determining the orbital of lowest energy state.
