Hey there! Hello!

By definition, a Personal Computer, which can be shortened to PC, is a microcomputer (a computer powered by a microprocessor) that was made for a single person to use at one time. Essentially, the name says it all: it's a computer meant for personal use. 

Before the invention of the PC, computers were large terminals used by corporations for their businesses. Because they were only used for commercial reasons, they were much too large and expensive for at-home or small business use. These computers would have many people on them at once as means to keep all resources connected to a single database and spread computer resources among users currently using the computer. But since the PC's invention, people like you and me are able to use desktop computers, laptops, cellphones, smartwatches, and many other technologically-splendid devices thanks to the ever-shrinking technology that is the computer. 

Hope this helped you out! Feel free to ask me any additional questions if you have any. :-)

On a DTP project, Morgan is preparing digital files to be sent to a printer. Which word describes the activity that Morgan is pe
VladimirAG [237]

In this activity Morgan is preparing the digital files to a printer  on a DTP project.

Explanation:

DTP project is the creation of documents using page layout on a personal computer. The process of printing digital based images directly to variety of media substrates is known as digital processing.

The digital files like PDFs can be sent directly to digital printing press to print on paper, photo paper, fabric and so on.

They have unique fade rates and different sensitives to the various deterioration mechanisms. DTP is used for graphic designers to create documents.

2) What is the value stored in the variable z by the statements below?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

7

Explanation:

Because the q.length is a inbuilt function in the programming which used to get the length of the array. In the array, there are 7 values are store. Therefore, the size 7 store in the variable z.

For example:

int[] array={1,2};

int x = array.length;

the answer of above code is 2, because the elements present in the array is 2.

four quantum numbers that could represent the last electron added (using the Aufbau principle) to the Argon atom. A n = 2, l =0,
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

  • n = 3
  • l  = 1
  • m_l = 1
  • m_s=+1/2

Explanation:

Argon atom has atomic number 18. Then, it has 18 protons and 18 electrons.

To determine the quantum numbers you must do the electron configuration.

Aufbau's principle is a mnemonic rule to remember the rank of the orbitals in increasing order of energy.

The rank of energy is:

1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s < 3d < 4p < 5s < 4d < 5p < 6s < 4f < 5d < 6p < 7s < 5f < 6d < 7d

You must fill the orbitals in order until you have 18 electrons:

  • 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶   : 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 6 = 18 electrons.

The last electron is in the 3p orbital.

The quantum numbers associated with the 3p orbitals are:

  • n = 3

  • l = 1 (orbitals s correspond to l = 0, orbitals p correspond to l  = 1, orbitals d, correspond to l  = 2 , and orbitals f correspond to  l = 3)

  • m_l can be -1, 0, or 1 (from - l  to + l )

  • the fourth quantum number, the spin can be +1/2 or -1/2

Thus, the six possibilities for the last six electrons are:

  • (3, 1, -1 +1/2)
  • (3, 1, -1, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, 0, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, 0, -1/2)
  • (3, 1, 1, +1/2)
  • (3, 1, 1, -1/2)

Hence, the correct choice is:

  • n = 3
  • l  = 1
  • m_l = 1
  • m_s=+1/2
