JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 2. structure of atom

Which of the following is correct set of \(4\) quantum numbers of \(19^{th}\) electron in Chromium (Atomic number \(= 24\)) in accordance with Aufbau principle?

  1. A \(n = 3, l = 2, m = +2, s = +\dfrac{1}{2}\)
  2. B \(n = 3, l = 2, m = -2, s = +\dfrac{1}{2}\)
  3. C \(n = 4, l = 1, m = 0, s = +\dfrac{1}{2}\)
  4. D \(n = 4, l = 0, m = 0, s = +\dfrac{1}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(n = 4, l = 0, m = 0, s = +\dfrac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The atomic number of Chromium is \(24\). According to the Aufbau principle, the order of filling of electrons is \(1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d\). The electronic configuration of the first \(18\) electrons is \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6\). The \(19^{th}\) electron enters the \(4s\)…
