Chapter 7, Problem 7.111MP

The neutral OH molecule has been implicated in certain ozone destroying processes that take place in the upper atmosphere.

  1. Draw electron-dot structures for the OH molecule and the OH - ion.

  • Electron affinity can be defined for molecules just as it is defined for single atoms. Assuming that the electron added to OH is localized in a single atomic orbital on one atom, identify which atom is accepting the electron, and give the n and l quantum numbers of the atomic orbital.
  • The electron affinity of OH is similar to but slightly more negative than that of O atoms. Explain.

    Write the electron configuration for the Br atom and the predicted Br ion.
    Write the noble gas core ground-state electron configuration for the 3+ ion of Yb. What other ion is Yb likely to form?
    The gadolinium +3 ion (Gd3+) has advantageous magnetic properties for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) applications, specifically a high number of unpaired electrons. In fact, both neutral Gd and Gd3+ have a set of degenerate orbitals with seven unpaired electrons. a)  Write the electron configuration for Gd and Gd3+ using the condensed noble gas notation. Identify which orbitals lose electrons to yield the +3 cation based on the above information. Explain your reasoning (2-3 sentences).  b)  Curium (Cm) is an actinide element named for Marie Curie. Cm is in the same group as Gd and also forms a +3 cation. Write the electron configuration for Cm and Cm3+.  c)  While +3 is the most common oxidation state for lanthanide elements, some can form +2 ions. Identify an isoelectronic ion to Gd3+ that has a +2 oxidation state and indicate which orbitals lose electrons to form that ion.
