Your answer is D. 8
16 = 2^4
72 = 2^3*3^2
So you'll choose 2^3 = 8
HEY THERE!!
For a given principal quantum number or n, the corresponding angular quantum number or l is equivalent to a range between 0 and (n-1) .
This means that the angular quantum number for a principal quantum number of 2 is equivalent to:
l = 0 -> (n-1) = 0 -> (2-1) = 0 -> 1
So the answer is 0, 1
HOPE IT HELPED YOU.
There are two naturally occurring isotopes of gallium: mass of Ga-69 isotope is 68.9256 amu and its percentage abundance is 60.11%, let the mass of other isotope that is Ga-71 be X, the percentage abundance can be calculated as:
%Ga-71=100-60.11=39.89%
Atomic mass of an element is calculated by taking sum of atomic masses of its isotopes multiplied by their percentage abundance.
Thus, in this case:
Atomic mass= m(Ga-69)×%(Ga-69)+X×%(Ga-71)
From the periodic table, atomic mass of Ga is 69.723 amu.
Putting the values,

Thus,

Rearranging,

Therefore, mass of Ga-71 isotope is 70.9246 amu.
