I have a project where I have to extend the periodic table by adding 54 elements and predicting their properties.
For this project I have to also provide the electron configuration for each, as well as what sub-shell/shell the valence electron is located in. I've filled the first 54 elements, reaching the 6g sub shell. Here's how I've been adding the elements:
From my understanding of the Aufbau principle, I used the following filling order:
7sx5fx6dx7px
8sx5gx6fx7dx8px
9sx6gx7fx8dx9px
I cofirmed this using madelungs rule. For example, 7s has a value of 7, while 5f has a value of 8, so 7s will first. 5f will fill before 6d because n is lower in 5f.
Following the trends in the periodic table, it would take two rows of g shells before an h shell can open up. So elements 171 and 172 would end up in the 6g shell. I just want to make sure that I'm correct in this filling order as far as grade 12 chemistry is concerned. Is there another way I can fit elements 171 and 172 without having to use the 6g shell?
Here's the electron configurations I had for some elements for reference:
Element 138: [Og]8s25g18
Element 152: [Og]8s25g186f14
Element 162: [Og]8s25g186f147d10
Element 168: [Og]8s25g186f147d108p6
Element 170: [Og]8s25g186f147d108p69s2
Element 171: [Og]8s25g186f147d108p69s26g1
Element 172: [Og]8s25g186f147d108p69s26g2
Is this correct as far as the trends in the periodic table are concerned? Does this way of adding elements violate any 'rules' (like alkali metals having a half filled principle energy level). Again, this is only grade 12 chemistry. I'm aware orbitals do not fill like this at all, but I'm following the trends I was taught in the s, p, and d orbitals.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If I have forgotten anything, please let me know as its my first time posting here.
