What is penetration? How is it related to shielding? Use the penetration effect to explain the difference in relative orbital en

ergies of a 3p and a 3d electron in the same atom.

Whitepunk [10]3 years ago

Answer: penetration is the ability of an electron in a given orbital to approach the nucleus closely. Shielding refers to the fact that core electrons reduce the degree of nuclear attraction felt by the orbital electrons. Shielding is the opposite of penetration. The most penetrating orbital is the least screening orbital. The order of increasing shielding effect/decreasing penetration is s<p<d<f.

Explanation:

The order of penetrating power is 1s>2s>2p>3s>3p>4s>3d>4p>5s>4d>5p>6s>4f....

Since the 3p orbital is more penetrating than the 3d orbital, it will lie nearer to the nucleus and thus possess lower energy.

Which of the following samples contains the greatest number of atoms?
mart [117]

Answer:

C. 11 moles of N2O

Explanation:

A. CO2 exists as a molecular compound. The number of atoms present = 1 atom of Carbon and 2 atoms oxygen = 3 atoms * 9 = 18 atoms

B. Xe exists as an atom. Number of atoms present = 10 * 1 atom = 10 atoms

C. N20 contains 3 atoms; 2 atoms of Nitrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

Number of atoms present = 3 * 11 = 33 atoms

D. CO contains 2 atoms, 1 each of carbon and oxygen.

Number of atoms present = 12 * 2 = 24 atoms

A student prepares a model of multicellular organisms which statement best explains the difference between tissues and organs an
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

C.)organs are a group of two or more different types of tissues that work together to perform a specific function

Explanation:

Cells of similar function are grouped together into tissues. For example, cardiac muscle tissue is present only in the heart, and made up of specialised cells called cardiomyocytes, or cardiac muscle cells. These cells contract to pump blood around the body.

The heart is an organ, consisting of multiple types of tissue including cardiac muscle tissue, connective tissue, blood vessels and epithelial tissue. Therefore, organs represent a group of at least two types of tissue that work together to carry out functions in the body.
