Does 5s have more energy than 4d?

I'd just like to add that the energy argument can be highly misleading when estimating the shielding. Even when the 4d orbitals would represent comparable energy levels to the 5s orbitals, the 4d orbitals would still be much more compact (i.e., smaller in space) and represent d orbitals, which are less strongly shielded in any case. So, as DrDu said, I'd find it hard to believe that the 4d are more strongly shielded than the 5s.

Hint:There are various rules for filling the orbitals while writing the electronic configuration of different elements. The rules are as follows:
The lowest energy orbitals are filled first. Thus, the filling pattern is \[{\text{1s,2s,2p,3s,3p,4s,3d,4p,5s,4d,5p,6s,4f,5d,6p,7s,5f,6d,7p}}\]. Since the orbitals within a subshell are degenerate (of equal energy), initially the subshell of a particular orbital is filled before moving to the higher energy subshell.
According to Pauli’s exclusion principle, only two electrons can be in an orbital and they must be of opposite spin. The two electrons found in the same orbital with opposite spins are being termed as paired.
According to Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity, we know that the most stable arrangement of electrons in a subshell occurs when the maximum number of unpaired electrons exist ( single electron), all possessing the same spin direction. This occurs due to the degeneracy of the orbitals, all orbitals within a subshell present are of equal energy. Electrons repel one another and only pair after all the orbitals have been singly filled.

Complete step by step answer:
Statement 1: The \[5s\] orbital is filled after the \[4d\] orbital. From the order of filling of orbitals according to their energy given in hint, we can see that \[5s\] orbital is filled before the \[4d\] orbital. Hence statement 1 is wrong.
Statement 2: The \[5s\] orbital has lower energy than the \[4d\] orbital. This statement is true as we can see from the order of energies of orbitals given in hint that \[5s\] orbital lies before the \[4d\] orbital in that list .Hence statement 2 is true.
Hence option (D) is the correct answer.

Note:
Lower energy orbitals are filled first.
Electrons are paired only after all orbitals are singly filled.
The \[5s\] orbital has lower energy than the \[4d\] orbital.
Only two electrons of opposite spin are allowed per orbital.

Going off of Becky, the rule is that the s orbital has higher energy than the d orbital when there is an electron present in the s orbital (s > d), but when there is no electron in the s orbital, it has lower energy than the d orbital (s < d). Thus in electron configurations, because you have to fill the s orbital before filling the d orbital, the s orbital will have a higher energy than the d orbital. So in terms of ionization energy, the first electrons removed from the atom would be from the s, in this case the 5s orbital, before the d orbital, thus being placed in name configuration after the d orbital to represent this.

Microsoft and Sony are both battling behind the scenes over the Activision Blizzard deal, and Microsoft is no longer pulling its punches with regulators

Does 5s have more energy than 4d?

Microsoft isn’t happy with Sony and the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority. The UK regulator signaled an in-depth review of Microsoft’s $68.7 billion deal to acquire Activision Blizzard last month, and the CMA has now published its full 76-page report (PDF) on its findings. The CMA says it has concerns that Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard deal could lessen competition in game consoles, subscriptions, and cloud gaming, but Microsoft thinks the regulator has simply been listening to Sony’s lawyers too much.

Microsoft pleaded for its deal on the day of the Phase 2 decision last month, but now the gloves are well and truly off. Microsoft describes the CMA’s concerns as “misplaced” and says that the regulator “adopts Sony’s complaints without considering the potential harm to consumers” and “incorrectly relies on self-serving statements by Sony which significantly exaggerate the importance of Call of Duty.” Microsoft even accuses the CMA of adopting “Sony’s complaints without the appropriate level of critical review,” suggesting that the regulator is simply just listening too much to what Sony has to say.

At the heart of all the back and forth is access to Call of Duty and concerns around the future of game subscriptions. “The CMA recognizes that ABK’s newest games are not currently available on any subscription service on the day of release but considers that this may change as subscription services continue to grow,” says the UK regulator. “After the Merger, Microsoft would gain control of this important input and could use it to harm the competitiveness of its rivals.”

Microsoft’s full response to the CMA, seen by The Verge, also includes parts where the company tries to, comically, make it look like it somehow sucks at gaming and it can’t compete. Microsoft says Xbox “is in last place in console” and “seventh place in PC” and “nowhere in mobile game distribution globally,” and Microsoft argues it has no reason to harm or degrade rival cloud gaming services as it wants to “encourage the major shift in consumer behavior required for cloud gaming to succeed.”

Microsoft might well be in last place in console sales during the previous generation, but it’s certainly investing billions of dollars to ensure any future Xbox sales aren’t less than half of the PlayStation and that its Xbox Game Pass bet pays off.

Sony and Microsoft have also been battling it out over Call of Duty, and the CMA recognizes this by revealing it’s concerned about Sony’s future revenues related to Call of Duty. “PlayStation currently has a larger share of the console gaming market than Xbox, but the CMA considers that Call of Duty is sufficiently important that losing access to it (or losing access on competitive terms) could significantly impact Sony’s revenues and user base.”

Sony has shown how significant Call of Duty is after it labeled Microsoft’s offer to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation “inadequate on many levels.” The Verge revealed last month that Microsoft Gaming CEO and Xbox chief Phil Spencer made a written commitment to PlayStation head Jim Ryan earlier this year to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation for “several more years” beyond the existing marketing deal Sony has with Activision. “After almost 20 years of Call of Duty on PlayStation, their proposal was inadequate on many levels and failed to take account of the impact on our gamers,” said PlayStation head Jim Ryan in response.

Now Microsoft says keeping Call of Duty on PlayStation is a “commercial imperative for the Xbox business and the economics of the transaction.” Microsoft says it would put revenue at risk if it pulled Call of Duty from PlayStation and that “Microsoft has been clear that it is counting on revenues from the distribution of Activision Blizzard games on Sony PlayStation.”

Microsoft also accuses Sony of not welcoming competition from Xbox Game Pass and that Sony has decided to block Game Pass on PlayStation. “This increased competition has not been welcomed by the market leader Sony, which has elected to protect its revenues from sales of newly released games, rather than offer gamers the choice of accessing them via its subscription, PlayStation Plus.” This comes just months after Microsoft claimed, in legal filings, that Sony pays for “blocking rights” to keep games off Xbox Game Pass.

If the UK battles are anything to go by, this acquisition could get messy as Microsoft and Sony battle it out behind the scenes to sway regulators. Microsoft even has a dedicated website to highlight its arguments as it seeks to convince regulators that its giant deal isn’t a bad one for gamers. We’re still months away from final regulator decisions, but get ready for this battle to continue to spill out onto the internet’s streets.

Does 4d have more energy than 5p?

4d,5p,5f and 6p orbitals are arranged in the order of decreasing energy.

Why is 5s lower energy than 4d?

In the Hydrogen atom, 4d orbital has a lower energy than the 5s orbital. This is because when you have only a charged nuclear core and a single electron, the energy of orbitals depends only on the principal quantum number n.

Why is 5s higher in energy than 4p?

this is because of the higher energy state of 4d orbital. 5s orbital have less energy than 4d. So, the electrons go for 5s orbital instead of 4d orbital.

Which has more energy 5s or 5p?

Hence, 5s has the lowest energy. <br> (b) `5p = 5 + 1 =6, 5d = 5 + 2 = 7, 5f = 5 + 3 = 8, 6s = 6 + 0 = 6, 6p = 6 + 1 = 7` Hence, 5f has highest energy.
