The correct Answer is:
To determine the quantum numbers for the 19th electron of chromium (Cr, Z=24), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the electronic configuration of chromium. The electronic configuration of chromium is: \[ \text{Cr: } 1s^2 \, 2s^2 \, 2p^6 \, 3s^2 \, 3p^6 \, 4s^1 \, 3d^5 \] ### Step 2: Identify the position of the 19th electron. In the electronic configuration, we count the electrons: - 1s: 2 electrons - 2s: 2 electrons - 2p: 6 electrons - 3s: 2 electrons - 3p: 6 electrons - 4s: 1 electron - 3d: 5 electrons Adding these gives us a total of 24 electrons, confirming that we are dealing with chromium. The 19th electron corresponds to the last electron in the 4s orbital. ### Step 3: Determine the quantum numbers for the 19th electron. Quantum numbers are defined as follows: - Principal quantum number (n): Indicates the energy level. For the 4s orbital, \( n = 4 \). - Azimuthal quantum number (l): Indicates the subshell. For an s orbital, \( l = 0 \). - Magnetic quantum number (m_l): Indicates the orientation of the orbital. For an s orbital, \( m_l = 0 \). - Spin quantum number (s): Indicates the spin of the electron, which can be either \( +\frac{1}{2} \) or \( -\frac{1}{2} \). We can choose \( +\frac{1}{2} \) for this electron. ### Final Answer: The quantum numbers for the 19th electron of chromium are: - \( n = 4 \) - \( l = 0 \) - \( m_l = 0 \) - \( s = +\frac{1}{2} \)
