Electrons are found in energy levels around the nucleus of an atom. Energy levels can also be called ""shells."" The energy leve

ls are designated by a principal quantum number (n). The lowest energy level is designated as n=1 whereas the highest energy level is n=7. Which energy level is the closest to the nucleus?

Answer:

<u>The first electronic shell or energy level, having n= 1, called the K shell, is the closest to the nucleus.</u>

Explanation:

In an atom, the sub atomic particles called electrons, revolve around the nucleus of the given atom at different <em>energy levels</em>, called <em>shells</em>.

The energy levels or the electronic shells are denoted by the <em>principal quantum number</em>  <em>(n)</em> and has the following values n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7; <em>from the innermost shell to the outermost.</em>

The electron shells are also labelled by the alphabets, K, L, M, N, O, P, and Q, <em>from the innermost shell to the outermost.</em>

<u><em>Thus the first electronic shell having n= 1, called K shell, is the lowest energy level and is present closest to the nucleus.</em></u>

<u><em>Whereas, the last electronic shell having n =7, called Q shell, is the highest energy level and is farthest from the nucleus.</em></u><u> </u>

A compound has a pka of 7.4. to 100 ml of a 1.0 m solution of this compound at ph 8.0 is added 30 ml of 1.0 m hydrochloric acid.
Monica [59]
 Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation on the solution before HCl addition: pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]) 8.0 = 7.4 + log([A-]/[HA]); [A-]/[HA] = 4.0. (equation 1) Also, 0.1 L * 1.0 mol/L = 0.1 moles total of the compound. Therefore, [A-] + [HA] = 0.1 (equation 2) Solving the simultaneous equations 1 and 2 gives: A- = 0.08 moles AH = 0.02 moles Adding strong acid reduces A- and increases AH by the same amount. 0.03 L * 1 mol/L = 0.03 moles HCl will be added, soA- = 0.08 - 0.03 = 0.05 moles AH = 0.02 + 0.03 = 0.05 moles Therefore, after HCl addition, [A-]/[HA] = 0.05 / 0.05 = 1.0 Resubstituting into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: pH = 7.4 + log(1.0) = 7.4, the final pH.

The answer is C

because plants use light energy from the sun to make their own food providing energy. The food created is a type of sugar.

This would make it definitely not A or D. The only answers left would be B and C but, technically the sunlight doesn't deliver the sugar straight to the plant so I'd go with C.

Hope that his helped!
