The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the element 'X', we need to analyze the given quantum numbers and spin multiplicity, and then derive the electronic configuration and properties of the element. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Quantum Numbers**: - Given principal quantum number (n) = 3 - Given azimuthal quantum number (l) = 1 (which corresponds to the p subshell) 2. **Determine Spin Multiplicity**: - Spin multiplicity is given as 4. - The formula for spin multiplicity is \(2s + 1\), where \(s\) is the total spin. - Setting up the equation: \[ 2s + 1 = 4 \implies 2s = 3 \implies s = \frac{3}{2} \] - This indicates that there are 3 unpaired electrons (since \(s = \frac{3}{2}\) corresponds to three half spins). 3. **Determine the Electronic Configuration**: - The last electron is in the 3p subshell, and since there are 3 unpaired electrons, the configuration can be deduced as: - The complete filling of lower energy levels gives: \[ 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^3 \] - Thus, the electronic configuration of element 'X' is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^3\). 4. **Identify the Period and Group**: - From the electronic configuration, we can see that element 'X' is in the 3rd period (due to n=3). - To find the group, we count the valence electrons: - Valence electrons = \(2 (from \, 3s) + 3 (from \, 3p) = 5\) - Elements in the p-block with 5 valence electrons belong to group 15. 5. **Analyze the Statements**: - **Statement A**: "Element X is in the third period and 15th group." - This is **correct** based on our findings. - **Statement B**: "In the valence shell of element X, electron density is symmetrically distributed." - This is also **correct** because the 3p electrons are distributed among the 3px, 3py, and 3pz orbitals. - **Statement C**: "Element X has a fully filled valence shell." - This is **incorrect** because there are 3 unpaired electrons in the valence shell. - **Statement D**: "None of these." - This is **incorrect** because we have found correct statements A and B. ### Conclusion: The correct statements regarding element 'X' are: - Statement A: Element X is in the third period and 15th group. - Statement B: In the valence shell of element X, electron density is symmetrically distributed.
