If the spin of one electron in an orbital is clockwise, what is the spin of the other electron in that orbital?

3 0

Answer:

The other electron must have anticlockwise spin.

Explanation:

According to the pauli exclusion principle, the two elecrton present in same orbital must have opposite spin.

If the one electron is clockwise the other must be in anti clockwise direction. The clockwise direction is represented by the sign +1/2 while anti clockwise direction is represented by -1/2.

According the pauli principle, the two electrons must have different fourth electronic quantum number. The electron in same orbital have same first three quantum number i.e, n=1 l=0 and ml =0 in case of first subshell.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer: 173 g ( 0.17 kg in right accuracy)

Explanation: Amount in moles is n = N/Na =  2.0·10^24 / 6.022·10^23 (1/mol).

n = 3.32116 mol. M(Cr) = 52.00 g/mol and  mass m = nM = 172.7 g

Which statememt describes gravity? Select three options
Fofino [41]

Gravity is a force which tries to pull two objects toward each other. Anything which has mass also has a gravitational pull. The more massive an object is, the stronger its gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity is what keeps you on the ground and what causes objects to fall.

Which of the following best explains how the results of Rutherford’s experiment affected Thomson’s widely-accepted atomic model?
hichkok12 [17]

Explanation:

Thomson's suggested the plum pudding model of the atom in which the atomic space is made up of electrons surround by positive charges.

Rutherford in his gold foil experiment revised the plum pudding model of the atom;

  • He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the foil while a few of them were deflected back.
  • To explain this observation, he suggested the atomic model of the atom.
  • In this model, an atom is made up of a small positively charged center where nearly all the mass is concentrated.
  • Surrounding the nucleus is the extranuclear part made up of electrons.
