The correct option is this: THE FIRST ATOM EMITS LIGHT WITH MORE ENERGY.

In the question given above, the level 1 mentioned in the question refers to the ground state of the electrons while level 2 and level 3 refer to excited states of hydrogen electrons. When an atom is in an excited state, it possess more energy and it is unstable, thus, it tends to return to the ground state after sometime to attain stability. As the atom return to the ground state, it loses its energy by emitting light. The higher the level of excitation, the more the light that will be emitted when the atom is returning to the ground state. Thus, an atom returning to the ground state from level 3 has more energy and will emit more light when returning to the ground state than an electron in level 2.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

since Mg has a charge of +2 and ClO3 has a charge of 1-, you need 2 ClO3 to cancel out the +2 since 2 ClO3 ions would have a 2- charge

2. What would be the outcome of a unicellular organism that cannot maintain homeostasis? (1 point)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Option A = it dies

Explanation:

Homeostasis:

It is the ability of organisms to maintain the equilibrium in its internal environment in order to deal with external environmental changes.

If the unicellular organism cannot maintain the homeostasis it would die.

Importance of homeostasis:

It is constant chemical and physical condition of cell. The unicellular organisms in maintained homeostasis condition can grow and reproduce. They respond to the environment and transfer energy. It is the primary objective of unicellular organism other wise they would not survive.

It is very important for them because they totally rely on it and can perform the necessary functions of life.

While in case of multi cellular organisms all cells communicate with each other to maintain the homeostasis.

Why are greenhouse gases so difficult to measure?
omeli [17]
<span>Greenhouse gases are so difficult to measure, because carbone dioxide, m</span>ethane, chlorofluorocarbons comes from multiple sources, some of which are relatively hard to measure.
For example, missions related to wetlands, deforestation, cattle, leakage from natural gas wells, storage facilities and distribution systems and because such leaks are highly variable and depend on factors such as well construction methods and maintenance systems for infrastructure.
