The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the element with the IUPAC name "unununium," we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Atomic Number The name "unununium" corresponds to the atomic number 111. This is derived from the Latin roots where "un" means one, so "unununium" translates to 1-1-1, which equals 111. ### Step 2: Write the Electronic Configuration For an atomic number of 111, we need to determine its electronic configuration. The electronic configuration can be constructed as follows: - The element with atomic number 111 is placed in the 7th period and belongs to the d-block. - The electronic configuration for atomic number 111 is: \[ [Rn] 5f^{14} 6d^{10} 7s^{1} \] Here, [Rn] represents the electron configuration of Radon (atomic number 86). ### Step 3: Identify the Period Number The period number corresponds to the highest principal quantum number (n) in the electronic configuration. In this case, the highest n is 7 (from the 7s electron). Therefore, the period number is 7. ### Step 4: Identify the Group Number To find the group number for a d-block element, we use the formula: \[ \text{Group number} = \text{Number of } ns \text{ electrons} + \text{Number of } (n-1)d \text{ electrons} \] For our element: - ns electrons = 1 (from 7s) - (n-1)d electrons = 10 (from 6d) Thus, the group number is: \[ 1 + 10 = 11 \] ### Step 5: Classify the Element Since the element has its outermost electrons in the d subshell and belongs to the group 11, it is classified as a d-block element, specifically a transition metal. ### Final Conclusion The correct statement regarding the element "unununium" (atomic number 111) is that it is a d-block element (transition metal) and belongs to group 11 and period 7.
