In what way are the electron configurations of H, Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs similar?
Choose one or more:
A. They belong to a mathematical progression in atomic number such that Z + 8 describes the next atomic number.
B. They all have an unpaired electron with a spin magnetic quantum number, ms = –1/2.
C. They all have an unpaired electron with a spin magnetic quantum number, ms = +1/2.
D. They all have an unpaired electron with a magnetic quantum number, mℓ = 0.
E. They all have an unpaired electron in an s orbital.
F. They all have an unpaired electron with an angular momentum quantum number, ℓ = 0.
The following is true
They all have an unpaired electron in an s orbital
They all have an unpaired electron with ml = 0
and they all have an unpaired electron with l = 0
