How Would the Periodic Table Change if L = N?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the implications of allowing the quantum number l to take values from 0 up to the value of the principal quantum number n in the periodic table. This change would significantly alter the arrangement and properties of elements, as the quantum numbers n, l, and m_l dictate the electron configurations and, consequently, the chemical behavior of elements. The conversation suggests revisiting the foundational theories regarding the construction of the periodic table to understand how these quantum numbers interact and influence elemental properties.

How would the periodic table look different if the quantum number, l, could take values from 0 up to the value of the n quantum number?

Since u posted a similar question (even twice ) and u've gotten an answer to it,i guess that didn't help too much,did it...?Reread your theory about the construction of the periodic table and especially when the "n","l" & "m_{l}" quantum numbers show up.

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
