<span>The 4s orbital has a lower energy than the 3d, and so fills next. That fits with the chemistry of potassium and calcium and the entire period. So the answer is 3d</span>

Answer: 3d

Explantion:

1) Period 4 contains the elements with atomic numbers 19 through 36.

2) The elements with atomic numbers 19 (K) and 20 (Ca) fill the orbital 4s.

3) After that, as Aufbau's rule may help you to remember, the energy of the orbitals 3d is lower than the energy of the orbtitals 4p. So, the element 21 (Sc) start fillind the orbital 3d.

There are ten 3d orbitals, so the elements 21 through 30 fill the 3d orbitals.

Those elements, called transition metals are: Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn.

When the 3d orbitals are full, the next elements in the same period 4, fill the six 4p orbitals.

In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance. What is the total resistance?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

17 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance.

We need to find the total resistance of the circuit.

The equivalent resistance for series combination is given by :

R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+....

For 17 light bulbs, the equivalent resistance is given by :

R_{eq}=R+R+....\text{upto 17 terms}\\\\R_{eq}=17R\\\\=17

Hence, the total resistance is 17 ohms. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Sulfur has four naturally occurring stable isotopes. The one with the lowest mass number is sulfur-32, which is also the most ab
enyata [817]

Sulfur-32 Information

This element is absorbed by plants from the soil as sulphate ion. Sulfur has 23 isotopes, 4 of them are stable. Sulfur is used in matches, gunpowder, medicines, rubber and pesticides, dyes and insecticides.

<h3>Which isotope of sulfur contributes the least to its mass number?</h3>

Sulfur (16S) has 23 known isotopes with mass numbers ranging from 27 to 49, four of which are stable: 32S (95.02%), 33S (0.75%), 34S (4.21%), and 36S (0.02%).

<h3>What is the use of Sulphur 35 isotope?</h3>

A radioactive sulfur isotope; a beta emitter with a half-life of 87.2 days; used as a tracer in the study of the metabolism of cysteine, cystine, methionine, and other compounds; also used to estimate, with labeled sulfate, extracellular fluid volumes.

2. All metals are good conductors because their electrons can
dsp73

Answer: An insulator would be made out of material unable to conduct electricity due to lack of fluid movement for electrons, such as rubber. Rubber properties not only prevents them from freely moving, but also helps electrons stay tightly bound to each other.

Hope this helps ^_^
