Answer:

Diamagnetism in atom occurs whenever two electrons in an orbital paired equalises with a total spin of 0.

Paramagnetism in atom occurs whenever at least one orbital of an atom has a net spin of electron. That is a paramagnetic electron is just an unpaired electron in the atom.

Here is a twist even if an atom have ten diamagnetic electrons, the presence of at least one paramagnetic electron, makes it to be considered as a paramagnetic atom.

Simply put paramagnetic elements are one that have unpaired electrons, whereas diamagnetic elements do have paired electron.

The atomic orbital and radius increases by gaining electron linearly so even electron numbered atoms are diamagnetic while the odd electron numbered atoms are paramagnetic.

Running through the first 18 elements one can observe that there is an alternative odd number of electrons and an even number proofing that that half of the first 18 elements shows paramagnetism and diamagnetism respectively.

Moderate alcohol consumption is no more than ________ alcoholic drink(s) daily for adult women and up to ________ drink(s) daily
liberstina [14]

Moderate alcohol consumption is no more than One alcoholic drink(s) daily for adult women and up to Two drink(s) daily for adult men.

What is an alcohol?

Alcohol is an organic compound containing a hydroxyl group and a carbon atom; Alcohol can be an intoxicant found in alcoholic beverages.

An alcoholic drink (also called an alcoholic beverage, adult beverage, or simply a drink) is a drink that contains ethanol, a type of alcohol that acts as a drug and is produced by fermentation of grains, fruits, or other sources of sugar.

The consumption of alcoholic drinks, often referred to as "drinking", plays an important social role in many cultures. Most countries have laws regulating the production, sale, and consumption of alcoholic beverages.

So, according to the scientific studies, the alcoholic consumption for women in a day is not more then one and for men is not for two drink(s)

1 Drink includes:

For beer: 355 ML

For Wine: 148 ML

An element has three naturally occurring isotopes. ten percent (.10) occurs as 55^x, fifteen percent (.15) occurs as isotope 56^
Leviafan [203]
The average atomic weight is, from the name itself, the average weight of all its naturally occurring isotopes. All you have to do is multiple the abundance of each isotope with its individual mass, then add them altogether.

Mass = (0.10*55)+(0.15*56)+(.75*57)
<em>Mass = 56.65 amu</em>

Would precipitation occur when 500 mL of a 0.02M solution of AgNO3 is mixed with 500 mL of a 0.001M solution of NaCl? Show your
Oksanka [162]
We know,
AgNO3 + NaCl ⇒ NaNO3 + AgCl(s)
The moles of Na+ present:
0.5 L * 0.001 mol/L
= 5 x 10⁻⁴ mol
Moles of Ag+ present:
0.5 * 0.02
= 0.01 mol
The limiting reactant is Na
Therefore, the moles of Ag reacted:
5 x 10⁻⁴
AgCl is insoluble in water; therefore, the AgCl formed will precipitate

How many neutrons are present in a nucleus whose atomic number is one and whose mass number is one?
nekit [7.7K]

Because the proton has a mass of 1 and a neutron has a mass of 1, we know that there is exactly one proton in the nucleus (because of the atomic number) which therefore tells us there are no neutrons as adding one would make the mass more than one.
