Relative energies are in the order:

s < p < d < f

And the shape of these orbitals are

s - spherical

p - dumbbell

d - double dumbbell        

f -   double double dumbbell

The shapes of s, p, d and f orbitals are spherical, dumbbell, clover leaf and double dumbbell respectively. (For structures, refer to the attached image). The relative energies of these orbitals follows the order s < p < d < f.

Further explanation:

Atomic Orbital:

It is a mathematical function required for the description of the wave-nature of electrons in an atom. The probability to find an electron in a specific region around the nucleus of an atom is determined by these orbitals. Four different types of atomic orbitals are present. These are<em> s, p, d</em> and<em> f</em> orbitals. The value of quantum numbers is different for each atomic orbital.

An atom can be occupied by various orbitals. The size of the orbitals is related to the possibility of finding electrons. Smaller the size of orbitals, higher will be the possibility to find electrons and vice-versa.

The s orbitals are nondirectional in nature and therefore have spherical shape. This is because these have spherical symmetry and the wave function depends only on the distance from the nucleus but not on the direction. (For shape, refer to the attached image).

The p orbitals have dumbbell shape. These are of three types, {p_x}, {p_y} and {p_z}. (For shape, refer to the attached image).

The d orbitals have shape somewhat similar to a clover leaf. These are of five types- {d_{xy}}, {d_{yz}}, {d_{xz}}, {d_{{x^2} - {y^2}}} and {d_{{z^2}}}. These orbitals have two angular nodes where the probability of finding electrons is zero. (For shape, refer to the attached image).

The f orbitals have double dumbbell shape. These are of seven types- {f_{xyz}}, {f_{y\left( {{x^2} - {z^2}} \right)}}, {f_{z\left( {{x^2} - {y^2}} \right)}}, {f_{x\left( {{z^2} - {y^2}} \right)}}, {f_{{x^3} - \frac{3}{5}x{r^2}}}, {f_{{z^3} - \dfrac{3}{5}z{r^2}}}  and {f_{{y^3} - \dfrac{3}{5}y{r^2}}}. (For shape, refer to the attached image).

The energy of various orbitals depends on the principal quantum number (n) and azimuthal quantum number (l). More the value of n, higher will be the energy and vice-versa. In case, orbitals have the same value of n, that having higher (n + l) will have higher energy. The increasing order of energy of various orbitals is,

s < p < d < f

How many moles are in 1.20 times 10^25 atoms of phosphorus
Stels [109]

19.927 moles are in 1.20 times 10^{25} atoms of phosphorus.

<h3>What are moles?</h3>

A mole is defined as 6.02214076 ×10^{23} of some chemical unit, be it atoms, molecules, ions, or others.

1 mole of any substance contain Avogadro's number of molecules so we can calculate the number of moles by dividing the provided number of atoms over Avogadro's number to obtain the number of moles .

Moles= \frac{Atoms}{\;Avogadro's \;number }

Moles=  1.20 X 10^{25} atoms ÷ 6.022 X 10^{23}

= 19.927

Hence, 19.927 moles are in 1.20 times 10^{25} atoms of phosphorus.

The goose has a mass of 19.2 lb (pounds) and is flying at 7.10 miles/h (miles per hour). What is the kinetic energy of the goose
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

43.868 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of a body is the amount of energy possessed by a moving body. The SI unit of kinetic energy is the joule (kg⋅m²⋅s⁻²).

According to classical mechanics, kinetic energy = 1/2 m·v²

Where, m= mass in kg and v= velocity in m/s

Given: m = 19.2 lb and v = 7.10 miles/h

Since, 1 lb= 0.453592 kg

∴ m = 19.2 lb = 19.2 × 0.453592 kg = 8.709 kg

Also, 1 mi = 1609.34 m and 1 h = 3600 sec

∴ v = 7.10 mi/h = 7.10 × 1609.34 m ÷ 3600 sec = 3.174 m/sec

Therefore, <u>kinetic energy of the goose</u> = 1/2 m·v² = 1/2 × (8.709 kg)× (3.174 m/sec)² = 43.868 J

A 25 kg rock is placed in a graduated cylinder with water.the volume of the fluid is 18.3ml.calculate the density of the rock in
ipn [44]

Answer:

=> 1366.120 g/mL.

Explanation:

To determine the formula to use in solving such a problem, you have to consider what you have been given.

We have;

mass (m)     = 25 Kg

Volume (v) = 18.3 mL.

From our question, we are to determine the density (rho) of the rock.

The formula:

p = \frac{m}{v}

First let's convert 25 Kg to g;

1 Kg    = 1000 g

25 Kg = ?

= \frac{25 × 1000}{1}

= 25000 g

Substitute the values into the formula:

p =  \frac{25000 g}{18.3 ml}

= 1366.120 g/mL.

Therefore, the density (rho) of the rock is  1366.120 g/mL.

15. List and define the characteristics of a wave. You should have 4 complete content related sentences (one for each part of th
forsale [732]

The characteristics of wave are amplitude, speed , frequency and wavelength.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Amplitude is defined as the distance covered by the particles or molecules moving in a wave nature. So the maximum positive and negative peak position is termed as amplitude of the wave.

Every wave forms a series of crests and trough regions. The crest region is the positive amplitude while the trough region is the negative amplitude. The distance between two successive crests and troughs are termed as wavelength.

A single crest and trough forms a complete cycle. So the number of times a cycle is repeated for a given time is known as frequency. Speed is defined as the product of frequency and wavelength of the wave. In other words, speed of a wave is the rate at which the particles are moving a given area per unit time.
