Answer:

A) ψ² describes the probability of finding an electron in space.

Explanation:

The Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger formulated an equation that describes the behavior and energies of submicroscopic particles in general.

The Schrödinger equation i<u>ncorporates both particle behavior</u>, in terms of <u>mass m</u>, and wave behavior, in terms of a <u><em>wave function ψ</em></u>, which depends on the location in space of the system (such as an electron in an atom).

The probability of finding the electron in a certain region in space is proportional to the square of the wave function, ψ². According to wave theory, the intensity of light is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave, or ψ². <u>The most likely place to find a photon is</u> where the intensity is greatest, that is, <u>where the value of ψ² is greatest</u>. A similar argument associates ψ² with the likelihood of finding an electron in regions surrounding the nucleus.

The teacher shows students a pictorial model of an atom. Which element is
frutty [35]

Answer:

C. Fluorine because the model has 9 protons which is represented by the atomic number

Explanation:

We usually identify an element by the number of protons in them. The number of protons is the atomic number of an atom.

  • Every atom has a specific number of protons in them.
  • This number of protons is the atomic number.
  • According to the periodic law, atoms are arranged on the periodic table based on their atomic number.
  • The given fluorine atom has 9 protons which represents the atomic number of the atom.
  • This way, the given number clearly shows the right model for identifying the chemical specie.

What is the crystalline arrangement of atoms shown here?
mixer [17]

Answer: Answer:

"The arrangement of atoms or ions in a crystal " is described by the terms body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic.

Explanation:

Face centred cubic system explains the crystal structure where an atom is present at each cubic corner of the crystal  and the centre of each cube face. Meaningfully, a closed packed plane where at each "face of the cube" atoms touch the alongside face diagonals.

Whereas in body centric cube system has the lattice point present at the 8 corners of  cell and an additional one at the center of the cell. Thus, both explains how the atom or ions are  placed or arranged in a crystal.

Explanation: Hope this helps :)
