Answer:

  • n = 3
  • l  = 1
  • m_l = 1
  • m_s=+1/2

Explanation:

Argon atom has atomic number 18. Then, it has 18 protons and 18 electrons.

To determine the quantum numbers you must do the electron configuration.

Aufbau's principle is a mnemonic rule to remember the rank of the orbitals in increasing order of energy.

The rank of energy is:

1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s < 3d < 4p < 5s < 4d < 5p < 6s < 4f < 5d < 6p < 7s < 5f < 6d < 7d

You must fill the orbitals in order until you have 18 electrons:

  • 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶   : 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 = 18 electrons.

The last electron is in the 3p orbital.

The quantum numbers associated with the 3p orbitals are:

  • n = 3

  • l = 1 (orbitals s correspond to l = 0, orbitals p correspond to l  = 1, orbitals d, correspond to l  = 2 , and orbitals f correspond to  l = 3)

  • m_l can be -1, 0, or 1 (from - l  to + l )

  • the fourth quantum number, the spin can be +1/2 or -1/2

Thus, the six possibilities for the last six electrons are:

  • (3, 1, -1 +1/2)
  • (3, 1, -1, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, 0, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, 0, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, 1, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, 1, -1/2)

Hence, the correct choice is:

  • n = 3
  • l  = 1
  • m_l = 1
  • m_s=+1/2

Which of the following best explains how the Internet is a fault-tolerant system?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The Internet is fault-tolerant because cybercriminals can conceal their actions, allowing them the ability to carry out faulty actions without leaving a trace.

This statement is actually the same question I had to answer when in my 2nd year 1st semester in itt.

8.11 LAB: Count characters - functions Write a program whose input is a character and a string, and whose output indicates the n
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int CountCharacters(char userChar, const string inputstr){

   int k = 0;

   int iter = 0;

   for (iter = 0; iter < inputstr.size(); iter++){

       if (inputstr[iter] ==  userChar){

           ++k;        }}

   return k;}

int main(){

   string str;

   char userChar[1];

   cout<<"Char: ";    cin>>userChar;

   cin.ignore();

   cout<<"String: ";   getline(cin, str);

   cout<<CountCharacters(userChar[0],str);

   return 0;}

Explanation:

Written in C++:

The function is defined here:

int CountCharacters(char userChar, const string inputstr){

This initializes a count variable k to 0

   int k = 0;

This initializes an iterating variable iter to 0

   int iter = 0;

This iterates through the characters of the string being passed to the function

   for (iter = 0; iter < inputstr.size(); iter++){

This checks for matching characters

       if (inputstr[iter] ==  userChar){

If found,  k is incremented by 1

           ++k;        }}

This returns the total count

   return k;}

The main begins here

int main(){

This declares a string variable

   string str;

This declares a character variable

   char userChar[1];

This gets input for the character variable

   cout<<"Char: ";    cin>>userChar;

This lets the user get another input

   cin.ignore();

This gets input for the string variable

   cout<<"String: ";   getline(cin, str);

This calls the function and return the count of character in the string

   cout<<CountCharacters(userChar[0],str);
