Problem 3
In the photoelectron spectrum of \(\mathrm{Sc}\), the peak at \(0.63 \mathrm{MJ} / \mathrm{mole}\) is assigned to the \(4 s\) subshell. Why is the peak at \(0.77 \mathrm{MJ} / \mathrm{mole}\) in the Sc spectrum assigned as a third subshell of \(n=3\) (named \(3 d\) ) as opposed to being a second subshell of \(n=4\) (that is, \(4 p) ?\)
