Can someone explain subshell/electron configuration to me?

There are four layers of these electrons are, s, p, d, and f.

Each one has a certain number of shells, in different shapes, that can hold two electrons.

S- Has one shell, shaped like a circle, so in total can hold 2 electrons.

P- has three shells, shaped like an infinity symbol, so in total can hold 6 electrons

D- has five shells, shaped, err, dunno how to describe it, can hold 10 electrons.

F- has 7 shells, um, even more dunno how to describe it, can hold 14 electrons

There doesn't only have to be one of each shell though. There can be two S levels, and one P level, and no D or F levels.

(search up electron configuration it'll have a chart of the order in which these come in)

Each layer will be stated as Number layer electron number.

For example, the first layer of electron level would be 1, because it's the first layer, S, because that's what the first layer is, and if it was completely filled, 2.

So, 1s2.

If you were going to add another level, which would also be a S level, but it only has one electron, you would say:

2s1,

because it's the second s level and has one electron in it.

And to put the two together, just say:

1s2, 2s1

NOTE: if you were going to add another level, it would be a P level, but it wouldn't be 3p something, it would be 1p something because it is the first electron level.

Another note: if you have three layers of electrons, or just six electrons, you would just say 1p6. (because the P orbital can hold 6 electrons)

Hope this helped!

A manufacturer sells two goods, one at a price of $1000 a unit and the other at a price of $16,500 a unit. A quantity q1 of the
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

manufacturing cost = $16.5 q₂ + $1 q₁ - $ 5

Explanation:

given,

one unit price of  first good is = $ 1000

one unit price of second good is = $ 16500

quantity of the first good = q₁

quantity of the second good = q₂                      

total cost to the manufacturer =  $ 5000

revenue from  good one = $1000 q₁                    

revenue from second good = $16500 q₂                      

manufacturing cost = total revenue - total manufacturing cost

manufacturing cost = $16500 q₂ + $1000 q₁ - $ 5000        

but in the question we have to answer in thousands of dollar

so, divide the result by 1000                  

manufacturing cost = $16.5 q₂ + $1 q₁ - $ 5

Which structure controls how much light passes through the specimen
poizon [28]

Answer:

The diaphragm.

Explanation:

A diaphragm is a thin non transparent structure with an aperture at its center. Aperture is the opening in a lens through which light passes to enter the camera. Diaphragm controls the passage of light through specimen. It stops the passage of light except for the light passing through aperture. It also limits the brightness of light reaching the focal plane.

The diaphragm is placed close to the lens, where objects are defocused to the maximum in order to pass every ray from the object through the lens. Diaphragm discards some of those rays but allows multiple rays to move through to produce an image. This means that the size of the aperture controls the amount of light that passes through the lens. The center of the aperture coincides with optical axis of the lens.  Iris diaphragm is an example. It is used in modern cameras.

Determine the momentum of a 6 kg object moving at 5 m.s-1 to the right
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

P = 6*5 = 30 [kg*m/s]

Explanation:

in order to solve this problem, we must remember that linear momentum is defined as the product of mass by Velocity. This way you can calculate the momentum using the following equation.

P = m*v

where:

P = lineal momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 6 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

P = m*v

P = 6*5 = 30 [kg*m/s]
