Explanation:

The value of all conversion factors that are used in dimensional analysis must be 1.

Dimensional analysis is a beautiful and systematic way of converting one unit to another using a simple scientific method in which a conversion factor of 1 is used to multiply the number to be converted.

For example, let us convert 1200kg to g:

We know that;

1000g = 1kg

The conversion factor is;

$\frac{1000g}{1kg}$

The above value is the same as 1 since 1kg and 1000g are the same.

Now multiply with 1200kg;

1200kg x $\frac{1000g}{1kg}$ = 1200000g

Answer:

Explanation:

Dimensional analysis is a way of converting values to have different units but to keep the same value. The only way to keep the same value but also being able to change the units is using 1 as the conversion factor.

Which of the following statements is true about the composition of the atmosphere?

Phoenix [80]

Answer : Option D) The atmospheric conditions vary as one changes latitude and altitude.

Explanation : The composition of the atmosphere varies according to the latitude and altitude because of the unequal heating of the earth surface at different latitudes and altitudes which results into atmospheric changes. It also creates different regions and zones.

If the half-life of a radioactive element is 4 days, how long will it take for three- fourths of a sample of the element to deca

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{8 da}}$

Explanation:

The question will be easier to solve if we interpret it as, " How long will it take until one-fourth of a sample of the element remains,?"

The half-life of the element is the time it takes for half of it to decay.

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.

We can construct a table as follows:

$\begin{array}{cccl}\textbf{No. of} & & \textbf{Fraction} & \\\textbf{half-lives} & \textbf{t/da} & \textbf{remaining} & \\1 & 4 & \dfrac{1}{2} & \\\\2 & 8 & \dfrac{1}{4}& \\\\3 & 12 & \dfrac{1}{8}& \\\end{array}$

$\text{We see that 8 da is two half-lives, and the fraction of the element remaining is $\frac{1}{4}$.}\\\text{It takes $\boxed{\textbf{8 da}}$ for three-fourths of the element to decay}$

Zolol [24]

1. option B

2. ground state Fe : [Ar] 4s² 3d⁶

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Aufbau rule

<em>Electrons occupy orbitals of the lowest energy level</em>

Charging electrons in the sub-shell uses the following sequence:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.

So the correct choice of answer is B.

Ground state is the state of electrons filling skins with the lowest energy levels.

Excited state is the state of electrons which occupy a higher energy level

The atomic number of Fe = 26, so electrons=26

Ground state configuration of Fe : [Ar] 4s² 3d⁶ or

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d⁶
