Atomic Structure - Result Question 70

####46. Which of the following statement (s) is (are) correct ? (1998, 2M)

(a) The electronic configuration of $Cr$ is $[Ar] 3 d^{5} 4 s^{1}$ (atomic number of $Cr=24$ )

(b) The magnetic quantum number may have a negative value

(c) In silver atom, 23 electrons have a spin of one type and 24 of the opposite type. (atomic number of $Ag=47$ )

(d) The oxidation state of nitrogen in $HN _3$ is -3

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 46. (b)

Solution:

  1. (a) $Cr=[Ar] 3 d^{5} 4 s^{1}$, an exception to aufbau principle.

(b) For a given value of $l, m$ can have any value from $(-l$ to $+l)$, so can have negative value.

(c) Ag is in copper group with $d^{10} s^{1}$ configuration, i.e. 46 electrons are spin paired.
