What element exists in almost every compound in your body and other living things
Aleks [24]
Carbon is one of the main building blocks of life. This is what carbon dating is so effective, because scientists are able to tell the approximate age of something that was once alive given how much carbon is still in the animal.

Prob. 3: Manifestation of quantum phenomena (total 25 points) (a)-(e) 5 points each.
TEA [102]

Answer:

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus)

Explanation:

This problem asks for some experimental explanations of various quantum phenomena.

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

In the classical explanation all states or energies are allowed, therefore when emitting energy (photons) there should be a continuum, this is not observed

In the correct quantum explanation only some states are allowed, therefore the emission must be discrete, which is observed in the emission or absorption of molecules and atoms

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

The incorrect classical explanation that if the minimum energy was zero the electrons cannot rotate around the nuclei and the atom collapses, this does not happen

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams, which is evidence of the existence of two discrete states that we call spin, remember that a free electron beam has zero angular momentum.

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission that occurs when a photon passes through the emission zone, causing the atoms to have transitions and these emitted photons have the same initial photon location, the laser beam all photons are in phase and therefore it is coherent .

This is widely used for holographic and interference work

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus) leaves the atomic nucleus penetrating the barrier since its energy is lower than the nuclear barrier potential.
