If you go by the decimal there should be 5 significant digits because 0 is a trailing zero and matters since it comes after a decimal. however if you do
6.3590 x 10 ^7 = 63590000 then you would only have 4 significant digits because there is no longer a decimal to make the zero after the 9, significant.
Hope this helps!
Answer:Silicon is neither metal nor non-metal; it's a metalloid, an element that falls somewhere between the two. The category of metalloid is something of a gray area, with no firm definition of what fits the bill, but metalloids generally have properties of both metals and non-metals.
Explanation:
Answer:
The four quantum number for each electron will be:
Explanation:
As the element is neutral, the number of protons will be equal to number of electrons which will be the atomic number of the element.
Number of electrons =12
Atomic number = 12
Element : Magnesium
The principal shell is represented by "n"
i) For "s" subshell the value of l =0 (azimuthal quantum number) thus m (magnetic quantum number)= 0
The two electrons in s subshell will have either plus half or minus half spin quantum number
ii) for "p" subshell the value for l =1
thus m = 0 or +1 or -1
The two electrons in each orbital will have either plus half or minus half spin quantum number

See explanation
Explanation:
According to Louis de Broglie, matter has an associated wavelength. He was the first scientist to establish the idea of wave-particle duality or wave- particle paradox.
The display of wavelike properties by objects in the universe is dependent on the magnitude of the of the mass of the body. Small objects have a large associated wavelength and can be described completely by quantum mechanics.
A buckyball with a mass of 1.2 x 10-21 g, 0.7 nm wide, moving at 38. m/s has a very small mass and significant associated wavelength hence the system can be completely described by quantum mechanics.
Natural selection is the process in which a weaker, or less advantaged animal loses something to a stronger, more advantaged animal. For example, a frog with a broken leg probably will not get to mate while a healthy frog will. Evolution is the process of an animal gradually changing over the generations biologically. An example of this is the theory that humans slowly evolved from monkeys, gradually becoming more and more human like.
