Why does the quantum mechanical description of many-electron atoms make it difficult to define a precise atomic radius?

Physics
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
4 0
<span>Atoms and ions, at least within the quantum mechanical model do not have boundaries that are sharply defined at which the electron distribution becomes zero. When this occurs it can be very difficult to measure an atomic radius. The distance between the electrons in quantum mechanics is not set and would be problematic in determining the precise radius.</span>

lianna [129]
For the answer to the question above, we'll have to use these formulas.

A) to find time to travel the 300m,
just find horizontal component of the velocity and divide.
ie x=89 x t x cos 40, t=x/89 x cos 40 

<span>B) y=vtsin 40 - gt^2/2, just sub in
