Answer:

B) Electrons are located in the cloud-like areas around the nucleus.

Explanation:

The quantum mechanical model of the atom does not consider the path through which an electron travels. It rather estimates the probability of where electrons can be found at each energy level.

The region of maximum probability of where an electron is located is sometimes called an electron cloud or orbital. Each orbital of an atom and the electrons accomodated are described completely by a set of four quantum numbers.

If the reaction 2HgO --> 2Hg + O2 is endothermic, which bonds are the strongest?
Alika [10]
  • Endothermic reaction means the reactant side takes heat from surrounding and get decomposed i.e ∆H=-ve
  • If the equation is exothermic then it means the reactant is happy to decompose .But it's not as it's endothermic

Now

  • HgO is Omitted from our solution option.

Hg is a atom so no bonds hence no bond strength occurs.

  • O_2 is a molecule and so it's our answer .
