Having a quantum number with three possible values
« on: October 30, 2008, 01:27:37 PM »
Another Universe of Atoms.
     Suppose, instead of the electron spin having a quantum number that has two possible values, it has a spin quantum number with three possible values. In other words, the exclusion principle would allow each space orbital to hold three electrons instead of two (Why?). Assume the filling order of the spatial orbitals is the same as in the textbook (fig. 11-32 on p 325).
d) Carefully construct the periodic table for the first 25 elements (H – Mn) in the 3-spins universe. Using your newly constructed periodic table, identify each of the following: (Justify all your answers)

I already did elements H- Mn with two quantum values.  How do i go about doing three? Especially from Ne to Ar.

Thanks
