Answer:

2) The outer electron of atom B has moved to a lower energy state.

Explanation:

Properly writing the sublevel notations:

        Atom A = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

         Atom B = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 5s¹

Solution:

According to the Aufbau's principle, "the sublevels with the lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies".

The pattern of filling is shown below:

      1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5d, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, etc.

The configuration of atom A having a total of 11 electrons follows the Aufbau's rule as we can see.

For atom B, we see a higher energy level which is the 5s coming into the lower energy orbitals. Therefore, the outer electrons of atom B has moved to a lower energy state.

Which question cannot be answered by science?
Bumek [7]
Hi!

The question that science cannot answer is any question which is opinionated. It cannot have one true answer because it is simply subjective.

Other examples would be any question which cannot successfully follow the scientific method.

So, in the case of the question - the answer is going to be whichever question is <em>opinionated. </em>Just as a hint, not <em>everyone </em><em>thinks </em>endangered animals <em>should </em>be protected. 

Hopefully, this helps! =)

Answer:

A biology investigation usually starts with an observation—that is, something that catches the biologist’s attention. For instance, a cancer biologist might notice that a certain kind of cancer can't be treated with chemotherapy and wonder why this is the case. A marine ecologist, seeing that the coral reefs of her field sites are bleaching—turning white—might set out to understand why.

How do biologists follow up on these observations? How can you follow up on your own observations of the natural world? In this article, we’ll walk through the scientific method, a logical problem-solving approach used by biologists and many other scientists.
