Answer:

For an electron in 5p orbital

5,1,-1,+1/2

For an electron in 6d orbital

6,2,-2,+1/2

Explanation:

The term quantum numbers refers to a set of values that can be used to determine the region in space where it is likely to find an electron. This region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron is known as an atomic orbital. An atomic orbital is actually a wave function according to the Schrödinger wave equation.

There are four quantum numbers used in describing an atomic orbital: the principal quantum number (n), the orbital angular momentum quantum number also called azimuthal or subsidiary quantum number (l), the magnetic quantum number (ml), and the electron spin quantum number (ms).

For a 5p orbital;

n= 5, l= 1, ml= -1,0,1 ms= +1/2 or -1/2

For 6d orbital;

n= 6, l= 2, ml= -2,-1,0,1,2, ms= +1/2 or -1/2

Since we are requested to use a four quantum number description that can be assigned to an electron in these levels;

For an electron in 5p orbital

5,1,-1,+1/2

For an electron in 6d orbital

6,2,-2,+1/2

What is the percentage by mass of nitrogen in the fertiliser (NH4)3PO4? [Ar: H = 1, N = 14, O = 16, P = 31]
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

(NH4)3PO4 is 28.2 % N , 8.1% H, 20.8 % P and 43.0 % O by mass.

Explanation:

the formula In chemistry, the mass fraction of a substance within a mixture is the ratio w_{i} of the mass m_{i} of that substance to the total mass {\displaystyle m_{\text{tot}}} of the mixture. Expressed as a formula, the mass fraction is: {\displaystyle w_{i}={\frac {m_{i}}{m_{\text{tot}}}}.}

A fruit fly is considered a consumer rather than a producer why
levacccp [35]
In an ecosystem, the only true producers are autotrophic organisms like plants and bacteria. These organisms produce energy by converting the energy from the sun into simple sugars.
All of the other organisms in the food chain, like the fruit fly, are simply consuming the energy produced by the plants/bacteria and not actually making/producing energy from a new source.
