Answer:

12 orbitals

Explanation:

The suborbital = d orbital.

n = 4

The orbital is 4d.

There are 5 degenerate orbitals of d orbitals. Thus m value, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2 .

Thus, number of orbitals = 5

The suborbital = f orbital.

n = 4

The orbital is 4f.

There are 7 degenerate orbitals of f orbitals. Thus m value, -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3

Thus, number of orbitals = 7

Total number of orbitals = 7 + 5 = 12

Explanation:

Different atoms binds their outermost shell electrons with different amount of energy.

The amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom is the ionization energy.

Ionization energy measures the readiness of an atom to lose electrons.
From the given problem, we can infer that in group O the ionization energy decreases down the group.
Helium has the highest ionization energy.
Down a group on the periodic table, ionization energy decrease because:

atomic radii increases down the group.
there is an increasing shielding/screening effect of inner shell electrons on the outermost shell electrons.

In the first 85.0 s of this reaction, the concentration of no dropped from 1.12 m to 0.520 m . calculate the average rate of the

In the first 85.0 s of this reaction, the concentration of no dropped from 1.12 m to 0.520 m .

What is rate of a reaction?

The speed at which a chemical reaction takes place is the rate of the reaction. It is the concentration change per unit time of a reactant in a reaction.

Since the concentration of NO reduces to half its initial concentration in 85 seconds that is from 1.12m to 0.520m, it can be said that 85 seconds is the half life interval for the reaction, Hence on average, half reaction is completed in the time interval of 85 seconds.

HELP! THIS IS A TIMED QUIZ!!

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

A) Age!! Its because even if the object was 1 year old or 100 years old, nothing about the impact would change. However, those other categories depict features that would definitely make an impact. For example as object that is big, fast, and hits at an angle perpendicular to whatever it is moving towards, the impact will be very lage. But if its the opposite and it was small and slow, then the impact crater would not be as large. Good luck on your quiz!!

Explain what air is, where on Earth it occurs, and how it moves to create wind.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Wind is caused by differences of pressure in the Earth's atmosphere. Air from a high pressure area will move towards an area of low pressure. High winds are caused when air moves between areas with large differences in air pressure.
