Answer: The statement is false

Explanation:

Electrons occupy a region in atoms known as orbitals or subs hell.  These orbitals include

I) S-orbital: it can occupy a maximum of two electrons

II) P-orbital: It occupies a maximum of six electrons

III) D-orbital: it occupies a maximum of ten electrons

F and G-orbitals as examples of other orbitals present.

A good illustration of the 6 electrons occupied by the P-subshell is seen in Sodium (Na) with atomic number of 11

Na = 1s2, 2S2 2p6, 3s1

Note: extra electrons are transferred to the next orbital

8. Balance the following nuclear equations:<br> ^65/30Ca -&gt; ^65/29Sc +_______
a_sh-v [17]

Explanation:

          ⁶⁵₃₀Ca   →   ⁶⁵₂₉Sc  +   ⁿₓH

The reaction above is nuclear reaction.

In a nuclear reaction, the mass number and atomic number must be conserved.

The mass number is the superscript before the atom

Atomic number is the subscript before the atom

  Conserving mass number:

       65 = 65 + n

        n = 0

   conserving atomic number:

    30 = 29 + x

     x = 1

The unknown atom is a positron i.e a positively charged electron:   ⁰₁e

              ⁶⁵₃₀Ca   →   ⁶⁵₂₉Sc  +  ⁰₁e

Answer:

The red arrow from igneous to sedimentary rock

Explanation:

When rocks are weathered and eroded, they become sediment. This sediment is later compacted and cemented to form sedimentary rock. Therefore, the red arrow going from igneous rock to sedimentary rock represents weathering and erosion.

Which forms when a humid air mass rises into a cooler temperature area?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Option A: Clouds

In the morning, air is cool and as sun begins to rise it starts increasing the temperature of air. By time, the air becomes warmer and warmer. Depending upon the surrounding conditions, air in different areas heat up at different rates.

Due to this heating, thermal formation takes place, this is due to uneven heating of surface of earth. The thermal formation at surface causes difference in temperature of surface of the earth and air around it. The warm air has tendency to rise thus, the air in the thermal rise and expand. Due to expansion it cools down, this process continues till the temperature of thermal air reaches equals to the temperature of surrounding air. This results in the formation of cloud.

Thus, when a humid air mass rises into a cooler temperature area, clouds formation takes place
