The elements Ni, Pd, and Pt are all in the same group. By examining the electron configurations for these elements in the following figure, what can you conclude about the relative energies of the nd and (n+1)s orbitals for this group?
The elements Ni, Pd, and Pt are all in the same group. By examining the electron configurations for these elements in the following figure, what can you conclude about the relative energies of the and orbitals for this group?
nd > (n+1)s
nd < (n+1)s
nd = (n+1)s
It is impossible to conclude.
