How does the electron-cloud model describe electrons?

Physics
1 answer:
Dominik [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Yo, you just kind of answered it yourself. The Electron Cloud Model is the informal way of describing an atomic orbital.

Explanation:

The analogy of the cloud of electrons is really describing the groups of electrons orbiting around said atom. Depending on the atom, there will be many or few electrons orbiting around it on all sides which can resemble an all-encompassing cloud.

On Earth, a spring stretches by 5.0 cm when a mass of 3.0 kg is suspended from one end.
Neko [114]

Answer:

Mass = 18.0 kg

Explanation:

From Hooke's law,

F = ke

where: F is the force, k is the spring constant and e is the extension.

But, F = mg

So that,

mg = ke

On the Earth, let the gravitational force be 10 m/s^{2}.

3.0 x 10 = k x 5.0

30 = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{30}{5} ................ 1

On the Moon, the gravitational force is \frac{1}{6} of that on the Earth.

m x \frac{10}{6} = k x 5.0

\frac{10m}{6} = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{10m}{30} ............. 2

Equating 1 and 2, we have;

\frac{30}{5}  = \frac{10m}{30}

m = \frac{900}{50}

    = 18.0

m = 18.0 kg

The mass required to produce the same extension on the Moon is 18 kg.

What os the term for the smallest bit into which chemical substance can be divided and still have the properties of that substan
Ostrovityanka [42]

That's a molecule of the substance.  You can break the molecule down further, into the atoms that make it up, but those don't have the properties of the original  'compound'.

Here's an example:

-- Sodium is a soft, slippery metal, that explodes when water touches it.

-- Chlorine is a poisonous green gas.

When an atom of Sodium and an atom of Chlorine combine, they make one molecule of a substance called "Sodium Chloride".  That's SALT !  It isn't green, it isn't a gas, it isn't poisonous, it isn't soft and slippery, and it doesn't explode when water touches it.

A long, straight, horizontal wire carries a left-to-right current of 40 A. If the wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field of
Drupady [299]

Answer:

4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

We are given that

Current in wire=40 A

Magnetic field=B_1=3.5\times 10^{-5} T( vertically downward)

We have to find the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above the wire and 29 cm below the wire.

According to Bio-Savart law, the magnetic field exerted by the wire at distance R is given by

B_{wire}=B_2=\frac{\mu_0I}{2\pi R}

We have R=29 cm=\frac{29}{100}=0.29 m

1 m=100 cm

Substitute the values in the given formula

B_2=\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 40}{2\times \pi\times 0.29}=\frac{2\times 40\times 10^{-7}}{0.29}=2.76\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnetic field is given by

B=\sqrt{B^2_1+B^2_2}

Substitute the values then we get

B=\sqrt{(3.5\times 10^{-5})^2+(2.76\times 10^{-5})^2}

B=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

The resultant magnitude of magnetic field is same above and below the wire as it is at same distance.

The resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm below the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T

Hence, the resultant magnitude of the magnetic field 29 cm above  the wire=4.5\times 10^{-5} T
