Answer:

Below.

Explanation:

1. At quantum number 3 it is further from the positive protons in the nucleus.

2. The inner electrons have a shielding effect on the attraction from the protons in the nucleus.

Answer: An electron having a quantum number of one is closer to the nucleus

Explanation:

The Bohr model relies on electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electron. Hence, the closer an electron is to the nucleus the more closely it is held by the nucleus and the lesser its energy (the more stable the electron is and the more difficult it is to ionize it). The farther an electron is from the nucleus ( in higher shells or energy levels), the less the electrostatic attraction of such electron to the nucleus due to shielding effect. Hence it is less tightly held.

What is the mass of 3.04×10^-4 mol of baking soda, NaHCO3?​
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

0.025536g

Explanation:

no. of mole = mass/Mr

mass = Mr ×  no. of mole

         = [23 + 1 + 12 + 3(16)] × 3.04×10^-4

         = 0.025536g

         = 0.0255g (3 significant figures)

Which theory describes the motion of and force driving earth’s plates?
swat32

The theory that describes the motion and force driving earth's plates is Plate tectonics

Explanation:

Plate tectonics states that the outer shell of the Earth is divided into plates that glide and move over the mantle which is the surface of the earth.

The mantle is the rocky inner layer above the core of the Earth.

Plate tectonics helped the geologists to explain how continents could move around the planet.

There are 9 major plate tectonics , namely North American, Pacific, Eurasian, Australian, African, Indo - Australian,Indian South American and Antarctic. These plates have been named after the land form found on them.

A patient needs to take 875mg twice daily The pills in the bottle are each 250mg How many pills does she wants to take 875mg
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

3.5 pill need to taken for completing dosage of 875 mg

Explanation:

Total dosage of medicine to be taken in a day

= 2 * 875 \\= 1750mg

Total weight of one pill = 250 mg

Number of pills required is equal to total dosage of medicine divided by the weight of one pill.

Hence,

Number of pills

= \frac{875}{250} \\= \frac{175}{50} \\= \frac{35}{10} \\= 3.5
