1.4 Electron Configuration Assignement

What are orbitals?

• Regions in an atom where neutrons are most likely to be found.

• Regions in an atom where electrons are most likely to be found

• Areas in an atom where protons are most likely to be found.

• Spaces in an atom where electrons are least likely to be found.

How are electrons distributed within an atom?

• Electrons are distributed in the nucleus of an atom.

• Electrons are distributed in a linear fashion within an atom.

• Electrons are distributed in energy levels or shells within an atom.

• Electrons are distributed randomly within an atom.

What is the Quantum Mechanical Model of the atom?

• A model that describes the behavior of electrons in an atom using principles of quantum mechanics.

• A model that describes the behavior of atoms in a molecule using principles of quantum mechanics.

• A model that describes the behavior of neutrons in an atom using principles of quantum mechanics.

• A model that describes the behavior of protons in an atom using principles of quantum mechanics.

What is the significance of electron distribution in chemical reactions?

• The electron distribution in chemical reactions only affects the color of the substances involved.

• The electron distribution in chemical reactions has no significance.

• The electron distribution in chemical reactions determines the temperature at which the reaction occurs.

• The electron distribution in chemical reactions determines the formation and breaking of chemical bonds.

How many electrons can each orbital hold?

• 2

• 1

• 3

• 4

What is the difference between an orbital and an orbit?

• An orbital is a three-dimensional region around the nucleus where an electron is likely to be found, while an orbit is a two-dimensional path followed by an electron around the nucleus in the Bohr model.

• An orbital is a region around the nucleus where an electron is likely to be found, while an orbit is a path followed by an electron around the nucleus in the Bohr model.

• An orbital is a path followed by an electron around the nucleus in the Bohr model, while an orbit is a region around the nucleus where an electron is likely to be found.

• An orbital is a two-dimensional path followed by an electron around the nucleus, while an orbit is a three-dimensional region around the nucleus where an electron is likely to be found.

What are the different types of orbitals?

• s, p, d, and g orbitals.

• s, p, d, and h orbitals.

• s, p, d, and f orbitals

• s, p, d, and e orbitals.

What is the electron configuration of an atom?

• The electron configuration of an atom is the number of protons in the atom.

• The electron configuration of an atom is the arrangement of neutrons in the atom.

• The electron configuration of an atom is the total mass of the atom.

• The electron configuration of an atom is a representation of how the electrons are distributed in the atom's energy levels or orbitals.

How does electron distribution affect the properties of elements?

• Electron distribution determines the chemical reactivity and physical properties of elements.

• Electron distribution only affects the physical properties of elements.

• Electron distribution has no effect on the properties of elements.

• Electron distribution determines the atomic number of elements.

The difference between the atom on the left and the atom on the right is that the electron on the right has been

• ejected

• electrified

• excited

• grounded
