Chapter 22, Problem 83GQ

Cerium, as noted in Applying Chemical Principles: 22.3 The Rare Earths, is a relatively abundant lanthanide element that has some important uses. Cerium(IV) oxide. CeO2, is widely used as a polishing agent for glass. Cerium(III) sulfide, Ce2S3, is becoming more widely used as a red pigment to replace cadmium pigments, which are environmentally less desirable.

(a) Give the electron configurations (using the noble gas notation) for Ce, Ce3+, and Ce4+.

(b) Is either Ce3+ or Ce4+ paramagnetic? If so, how many unpaired electrons does each have?

(c) The solid state structure for CeO2 is shown below. Describe the unit cell of the compound. How is this structure related to the formula?

Despite the expected decrease in atomic size, there is an un-expected drop in the first ionization energy between Groups2A(2) and 3A(13) in Periods 2 through 4. Explain this pattern interms of electron configurations and orbital energies.
What is the trend in first ionization energies as one proceedsdown the group 7A elements? Explain how this trendrelates to the variation in atomic radii
In the lab, you should have observed that the reactivity of metals increased down a group. Explain how electron shielding contributes to this trend in reactivity. !!
