Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A carbon atom (Z=6) has electrons distributed across its orbitals. If a carbon atom loses an electron from its outermost shell, explain its electron configuration and resulting reactivity.

💡 Hint: Consider the implications of having unfilled outer orbitals.

Question 2

Explain why elements displaying the same chemical properties are grouped within the same column of the periodic table using quantum numbers.

💡 Hint: Think about how electron configuration relates to chemical behavior.
