Carbon is chemical element denoted by  the  symbol C, have a larger atomic mass than boron, B, even though the each have six neutrons is due to the difference in the amount of protons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic mass is defined as the total mass of protons, electrons and neutrons, where due to less weightage electrons are neglected in calculation. Boron has 5  number of protons where carbon has 6 number of protons. As carbon has one more proton than boron, its value of atomic mass varies with boron.

Describe the shapes and relative energies of the SPD &amp; f atomic orbitals
Deffense [45]

Explanation:

The shapes and relative energies of the orbitals s,p,d and f orbitals are given by the principal quantum number and the azimuthal quantum number.

The principal quantum number gives the main energy level and the azimuthal quantum number denotes the shape of the orbitals.

  • For the principal quantum number, they represent the energy levels in which the orbital is located or the average distance of the orbital from the nucleus. It takes the number n = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7......
  • The azimuthal quantum number(L) shows the shape of the orbitals in subshells accommodating electrons. The number of possible shapes is limited by the the principal quantum number.
