Atomic Structure Unit Test Version 2 Atomic Structure Unit Test Version 2 1- The table below gives the atomic mass and the abundance of the two naturally occurring isotopes of chlorine. Naturally Occuring Isotopes of Chlorine Isotope Atomic Mass of the Isotope Natural Abundance (u) (%) 35Cl 34.97 75.76 37Cl 36.97 24.24 The numerical setup used to calculate the atomic mass of the element chlorine is (34.97 u)(0.7576) + (36.97 u)(0.2424) or (34.97 u)(75.76) + (36.97 u)(24.24) 100 100 2- The energy and the most probable location of an electron in the third shell of an atom is compared to the energy and the most probable location of an electron in the first shell of the same atom as follow: Compared to the energy and location of an electron in the first shell the electron in the third shell has more energy and is farther from the nucleus. 3- The overall charge of an ion that has 12 protons, 10 electrons, and 14 neutrons is 2+ because there are two more protons (12 having positive charge) than the electrons (10 having negative charge). 12+-10- = 2+ 4- The subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom of Beryllium (like other atoms) are neutrons and protons. 5- According to the wave-mechanical model an orbital is defined as the most probable location of electrons. 42 6- The symbol for an atom containing 20 protons and 22 neutrons is 20Ca because the lower number is the atomic number representing the number of protons and the top number, the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons. The number of neutron is calculted by subtracting the atomic number (the number of proton) from the mass number (the sum of protons and neutrons). 7- The electron configuration which represents an atom in the excited state is 2 2 5 2 1s , 2s , 2p , 3s Because there are total 11 electrons and the atom is sodium, the given electronic cofiguration is different than 2,8, 1 (the one given under the symbol of sodium in the periodic table). Furthermore, the given configurations clearly shows that one electron from 2P orbital on the 2nd energy level has jumped to the 3S orbital on the 3rd principal energy level. Hence, proving that this is the excited electronic configuration. 8- The true statement about a proton and an electron is that they have different masses and different charges [ a proton is positively charged and has mass of 1 amu. On the other hand, an electron is negatively charged and has mass of zero (or negligible]. 9- As the result of the gold foil experiment it was concluded about the structure of an atom that positively charged nucleus is surrounded by mostly empty space. 10- The atomic mass of Magnesium (like most of the atoms) is the weighted average of the atomic masses of all of the naturally occurring isotopes of Mg. 11- An atom is electrically neutral when the number of protons (positively charged particles) equals the number of electrons (negatively charged particles). 12- The orbital notation which correctly represents the outermost principal energy level of oxygen in the ground state is Because right under the symbol of oxygen in the periodic table the written electronic configuration of oxygen is 2,6, which means the outermost principal energy level of oxygen has 6 electrons. 13- The charge of an electron and the charge of a proton is described as follow: An electron has a charge of -1, and a proton has a charge of +1. 14- The elements arranged in order of increasing atomic mass are Cl, K, Ar. 15- In the bright-line spectra of three elements and the spectrum of a mixture formed from at least two of the elements mentioned above shows that the mixture contains E and D only because when we project the lines of the mixture spectrum they coincide with the spectral lines of E and D only. 16- The electron configuration which represents the electrons in an atom of Ga in an excited state is 2-8-17-4 because this electronic configuration is different from the electonic configuration given below the symbol of Ga (atomic number 31) in the periodic table. The above given electronic configuration shows that one electon jumped from 3rd principal energy level to 4th principal energy level and that’s why this arrangement is an excited state for Ga. 17- The numbers of protons and neutrons in each of four different atoms are shown in the table below. Only two atoms, D and E, have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons and therefore, are isotopes of the same element. Atom A with 8 protons is oxygen, atoms D and E with 9 protons are atoms of the same element flourine, and atom G with 10 protons is neon. It is evident that only atom D and E are isotopes of the same elemnt because they have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. 18- The two notations that represent different isotopes of the same element must have the same number of protons (atomic number). and are isotopes of Beryllium because both the notations have the same atomic number 4 (4 protons in the nucleus). 4 2 19- The atomic mass unit (amu) is defined as exactly 1/12 of the mass of an atom 12 of Carbon-12, which can also be written as 6C 20- The table below gives information about the nucleus of each of the four atoms. In this table, only two different elements with atomic number (number of protons) 6 and 7 are given. The atom with 6 protons is carbon and the atom with 7 protons is nitrogen. The number of protons is the identity of an atom/element. Therefore, there are only two elements (2 atoms of Carbon and 2 atoms of Nitrogen). .

  • Chlorine Stable Isotopes in Sedimentary Systems: Does Size Matter?
    Chlorine stable isotopes in sedimentary systems: does size matter? Max Coleman Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Caltech, Pasadena, California, USA ABSTRACT: Stable isotope abundances vary because of size (atomic mass) differences. The chlorine stable isotope system was one of the first described theoretically, but had a slow, disappointment-strewn develop- ment, relative to other elements. Method improvement gave only small, but significant, differences (-1 %.) in compositions of geological materials. Eventually, brines and groundwater chlorides gave larger differences (-5%0). Physical processes like diffusion and adsorption, probably are the main controls of groundwater com- positions. In contrast, the processes producing brine compositions are still enigmatic and need further work for full understanding. Recent work on anthropogenic groundwater contaminants (chlorinated aliphatic hy- drocarbons and perchlorate) shows variations resulting from manufacturing processes; implying possibilities of tracing sources. However, they are subject to microbial degradation, producing much larger fractionations (115%0),but therefore offering better possibility of monitoring natural attenuation. So atomic size is important to give isotopic fractionation and the size of fractionation matters, allowing observation of otherwise unde- tectable processes. lecular and atomic weights by weighing the gases and relating them to the weight of hydrogen.

  • 12 Natural Isotopes of Elements Other Than H, C, O
    12 NATURAL ISOTOPES OF ELEMENTS OTHER THAN H, C, O In this chapter we are dealing with the less common applications of natural isotopes. Our discussions will be restricted to their origin and isotopic abundances and the main characteristics. Only brief indications are given about possible applications. More details are presented in the other volumes of this series. A few isotopes are mentioned only briefly, as they are of little relevance to water studies. Based on their half-life, the isotopes concerned can be subdivided: 1) stable isotopes of some elements (He, Li, B, N, S, Cl), of which the abundance variations point to certain geochemical and hydrogeological processes, and which can be applied as tracers in the hydrological systems, 2) radioactive isotopes with half-lives exceeding the age of the universe (232Th, 235U, 238U), 3) radioactive isotopes with shorter half-lives, mainly daughter nuclides of the previous catagory of isotopes, 4) radioactive isotopes with shorter half-lives that are of cosmogenic origin, i.e. that are being produced in the atmosphere by interactions of cosmic radiation particles with atmospheric molecules (7Be, 10Be, 26Al, 32Si, 36Cl, 36Ar, 39Ar, 81Kr, 85Kr, 129I) (Lal and Peters, 1967). The isotopes can also be distinguished by their chemical characteristics: 1) the isotopes of noble gases (He, Ar, Kr) play an important role, because of their solubility in water and because of their chemically inert and thus conservative character. Table 12.1 gives the solubility values in water (data from Benson and Krause, 1976); the table also contains the atmospheric concentrations (Andrews, 1992: error in his Eq.4, where Ti/(T1) should read (Ti/T)1); 2) another category consists of the isotopes of elements that are only slightly soluble and have very low concentrations in water under moderate conditions (Be, Al).

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 1. 81 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 91-554-6124-7 36 129 Two long-lived halogen radionuclides ( Cl, T1/2 = 301 kyr, and I, T1/2 = 15.7 Myr) have been studied by means of Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) at the Uppsala Tandem Labo- ratory. The 36Cl measurements in natural samples using a medium-sized tandem accelerator (∼1 MeV/amu) have been considered. A gas-filled magnetic spectrometer (GFM) was proposed for the separation of 36Cl from its isobar, 36S. Semi-empirical Monte-Carlo ion optical calculations were conducted to define optimal conditions for separating 36Cl and 36S. A 180° GFM was constructed and installed at the dedicated AMS beam line. 129I has been measured in waters from the Arctic and North Atlantic Oceans. Most of the 129I currently present in the Earth’s surface environment can be traced back to liquid and gaseous releases from the nuclear reprocessing facilities at Sellafield (UK) and La Hague (France).

  • The Isotope Effect: Prediction, Discussion, and Discovery
    1 The isotope effect: Prediction, discussion, and discovery Helge Kragh Centre for Science Studies, Department of Physics and Astronomy, Aarhus University, 8000 Aarhus, Denmark. ABSTRACT The precise position of a spectral line emitted by an atomic system depends on the mass of the atomic nucleus and is therefore different for isotopes belonging to the same element. The possible presence of an isotope effect followed from Bohr’s atomic theory of 1913, but it took several years before it was confirmed experimentally. Its early history involves the childhood not only of the quantum atom, but also of the concept of isotopy. Bohr’s prediction of the isotope effect was apparently at odds with early attempts to distinguish between isotopes by means of their optical spectra. However, in 1920 the effect was discovered in HCl molecules, which gave rise to a fruitful development in molecular spectroscopy. The first detection of an atomic isotope effect was no less important, as it was by this means that the heavy hydrogen isotope deuterium was discovered in 1932. The early development of isotope spectroscopy illustrates the complex relationship between theory and experiment, and is also instructive with regard to the concepts of prediction and discovery. Keywords: isotopes; spectroscopy; Bohr model; atomic theory; deuterium. 1. Introduction The wavelength of a spectral line arising from an excited atom or molecule depends slightly on the isotopic composition, hence on the mass, of the atomic system. The phenomenon is often called the “isotope effect,” although E-mail: [email protected]. 2 the name is also used in other meanings.

  • GROUP 7 Halogen the Group of Halogens Is the Only Periodic Table
    GROUP 7 Halogen The group of halogens is the only periodic table group that contains elements in all three familiar states of matter at standard temperature and pressure. All of the halogens form acids when bonded to hydrogen. Most halogens are typically produced from minerals of salts. The middle halogens, that is, chlorine, bromine and iodine, are often used as disinfectants. The halogens are also all toxic. Characteristics Chemical The halogens show trends in chemical bond energy moving from top to bottom of the periodic table column with fluorine deviating slightly. (It follows trend in having the highest bond energy in compounds with other atoms, but it has very weak bonds within the diatomic F2 element molecules.) Halogen bond energies (kJ/mol)[4] X X2 HX BX3 AlX3 CX4 F 159 574 645 582 456 Cl 243 428 444 427 327 Br 193 363 368 360 272 1 I 151 294 272 285 239 Halogens are highly reactive, and as such can be harmful or lethal to biological organisms in sufficient quantities. This high reactivity is due to the high electronegativity of the atoms due to their high effective nuclear charge. They can gain an electron by reacting with atoms of other elements. Fluorine is one of the most reactive elements in existence, attacking otherwise-inert materials such as glass, and forming compounds with the heavier noble gases. It is a corrosive and highly toxic gas. The reactivity of fluorine is such that, if used or stored in laboratory glassware, it can react with glass in the presence of small amounts of water to form silicon tetrafluoride (SiF4).
