Electronic configuration of ions of transition elements

Electronic configuration of ions of transition elements: 

In first transition series atom loses 4s electron before they lose 3d electron.

the reason is that when electron goes in 3d orbital the energy of 3d orbital became less than 4s orbital .In other words 3d orbital became more stable than 4s.

once both the electron are lost from 4s orbital than electron are lost from 3d orbital.

for eg. 
 fe (26)         [ Ar] 4s^2  3d^6

[fe^3+]         [At]  3d^5   4s^0

Question

1 Write down electronic configuration of elements with atomic no.  24,46,74,57.
 Ans.
electronic configuration of elements as:
1.  cr(24)          [Ar] 4s^1 3d^5

2.   pd(46)         [kr]  5s^0 4d^10

3.   W(74)          [xe]  4f^14  6s^2  5d^4

4.    la(57)           [xe ]  6s^2  5d^1

Question 

2 cu^2+ is more stable than cu^+1  ? 
Ans 

cu^2+ cupric 

cu^+  cuprous

cu^2+ compounds are more stable due to high lattice energy in solid state and high hydration energy in solution. and cu^2+size is small attain high energy as compare to cu^+1 .hence cu^2+  is more stable than cu^+1

Electronegativity scales and disadvantage of scales and its nunericals

Electronegativity scales: 1.Pauling scale of electronegativity: in diatomic molecule (A-B) ,the bond formed between two atoms A and  B will be intermediate between  pure Covalent (A-B)  and pure ionic character,  the bond between A and B will be  strong than bond energy increased. if bond (A-B) has been purily covalent than bond energy can be calculated as average bond energy of bond (A-A)  and bond (B-B).     that means it is equal to bond energy of bond (A-B) E(A-B)  = 1/2[ E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] however experiemental value of bond (A-B)  more than this value  because of difference in electronegativity  of A and B the difference ∆ is given by simple expression ∆ = E(A-B) - 1/2 [E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] where E(A-B)  is experimental value of bond energy. if Ҳ(A)  and  Ҳ(B) are the electronegative of elements A and B than Ҳ(A) - Ҳ(B) = 0.18√∆ for numerical ∆ = E(A-B)  -[√(E(A-A) ×E(B-B) )] Disadvan...

Radial probability distribution curves

Radial probhjjhajajbability distribution curves:  The probability of finding the electron is given by the quantity  sie^2.By radial probability us probability of finding the electron within small Radial space around the nucleus. volume of spherical shell between radius r and r+dr =4πr^2 and probability of finding the electron will be 4πr^2dr sie^2. radial probability distribution curves are obtained by plotting radial probability at various distance from the nucleus . 1.Radial probability distribution curves for S orbital n=1, l= 0. distance from nucleus here A° is called angstrom. the probability of finding of electron in a shell is maximum at distance r=r° (r not)  which is 0.529 A° for H atom. diagram shows that probability plot for 2s has(two region of high probability)  or (two peaks)  separated by node. we conclude that  no.  of high probability region in S orbital = n no.  of node = ( n-1)
