17. See diagram on previous page. There are four different paths that an excited electron in the n = 4
level can use to decay to the ground state. (Each “decay path” can consist of one or more de-
excitation steps.) Draw all four decay routes in the middle portion of the above energy-level
diagram.
18. Suppose that an electron is in the n = 5 state of this atom.
(i). What is the minimum energy needed to ionize the electron? ____0.360_______eV
(ii).draw this ionization in the right-hand portion of the previous energy-level diagram.
 
Atomic and Ionic Radii
19. Atomic radius generally increases as we move
(A) down a group and from right to left across a period
(B) up a group and from left to right across a period
(C) down a group and from left to right across a period
(D) up a group and from right to left across a period
(E) down a group; the period position has no effect
20. Electrons in the 1s subshell are much closer to the nucleus in Ar than in He due to the larger
__________ in Ar.
(A) nuclear charge
(B) paramagnetism
(C) diamagnetism
(D) Hund's rule
(E) azimuthal quantum number
