The Answer is C. The outer shell electrons are the electrons which are involved with chemical reactions and bonding. All elements in the same group have different number of total electrons but ALL have the same number of outer shell electrons. This is why they exhibit similar chemical properties.

Give a combination of four quantum numbers that could be assigned to an electron occupying a 5p orbital.
Elden [556K]

Answer:

n=5, l=1, m(l) = -1, m(s)= + 1/2

Explanation:

Quantum number are used to describe the position and spin of an electron inside an atom. There are four types of quantum number for describing an electron inside an atom. They are: the principal quantum number, spin quantum number, magnetic quantum number and angular momentum quantum number.

(1).PRINCIPAL QUANTUM NUMBER: denoted by n, and has possible values of n= 1,2,3,4,.... IN HERE, n= 5

(2).ANGULAR MOMENTUM QUANTUM NUMBER: it is denoted by l, and has possible values of l= 0,1,2,3,...,(n-1).

Our l here is one( that is, s-orbital=0, p-orbital=1, d-orbital= 3 and so on)

(3).MAGNETIC QUANTUM NUMBER: The magnetic quantum number, which is denoted by m subscribt l, specifies the exact orbital in which you can find the electron. It has values ranging from -l,...,-1,0,1,...,l.

Here, our value is -1 that is m(l)= -1

(4).SPIN QUANTUM NUMBER: describes the orientation of electrons. Electrons can only have two values here, either a positive one and the half(+1/2) that is the spin up electron or the negative one and half(-1/2) that is the spin down electron.

Is the refraction different entering medium that has a higher index of refraction compared to entering amedium that has a lower
oee [108]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The speed of light when it travels through glass, diamond, etc, the light travels at different speed from the speed of light. Speed of the light in material is related to the index of refraction.

The change in speed which occurs when the light passes from one medium to the another is responsible for bending of the light which is called as refraction.

<u>When the light goes into a medium with the higher index of the refraction, light bends towards normal. Conversely, if the light traveling goes from higher refractive index to lower refractive index, it will bend away from the normal. </u>

<u>Hence, the refraction is different in both the scenario.</u>
