Answer:

The values for spin quantum number +1/2 and - 1/2

Explanation:

Principal quantum number denoted by (n) is used to describe the shell or orbits that electrons are found. Principal quantum number can assume a value of n= 1,2, 3, 4,5............ which indicates K, L, M, N, O shell respectively.

To know the maximum number of electrons in each shell, the formula (2n²) can be used. The letter 'n' denotes the values of principal quantum number 1,2,3,4

For example

n=1 (K shell) has maximum number of 2 electrons
n=2 (L shell) has the maximum number of 8 electrons
n=3 (M shell) has the maximum number of 18 electrons
n=4 (N shell) has the maximum number of 32 electrons

All the electron in each shell will have a spin quantum number of +1/2 and - 1/2. One electron in each degenerate orbital will spin up (+1/2) while the other electron will spin down (-1/2).

Answer:

The value of the Golden Igloo is $227.4 million.

Explanation:

First, we need to find the inner and the outer volume of the half-spherical shell:

$V_{i} = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{4}{3}\pi r_{i}^{3}$

$V_{o} = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{4}{3}\pi r_{o}^{3}$

The total volume is given by:

$V_{T} = V_{o} - V_{i}$

Where:

$V_{i}$ : is the inner volume

$r_{i}$ : is the inner radius = 1.25/2 = 0.625 m

$V_{o}$ : is the outer volume

$r_{o}$ : is the outer radius = 1.45/2 = 0.725 m

Then, the total volume of the Igloo is:

$V_{T} = \frac{2}{3}\pi r_{o}^{3} - \frac{2}{3}\pi r_{i}^{3} = \frac{2}{3}\pi [(0.725 m)^{3} - (0.625 m)^{3}] = 0.29 m^{3}$

Now, by using the density we can find the mass of the Igloo:

$m = 19.3 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}*0.29 m^{3}*\frac{(100 cm)^{3}}{1 m^{3}} = 5.60 \cdot 10^{6} g$

Finally, the value (V) of the antiquity is:

$V = \frac{\$ 1263}{oz}*5.60 \cdot 10^{6} g*\frac{1 oz}{31.1034768 g} = \$ 227.4 \cdot 10^{6}$

Therefore, the value of the Golden Igloo is $227.4 million.

If the solubility of sugar at 25ºC is 211 g/100 g H2O, what mass of sugar can be dissolved in 300 g of H2O?

ladessa [460]

Answer:

633 grams of sugar can be dissolved in 300 g of H₂O

Explanation:

Solubility is the measure of the ability of a certain substance to dissolve in another and form a homogeneous system. Solubility is then the maximum amount of a solute that a solvent can receive and is expressed by concentration units.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. That is, what is intended with it is to find the fourth term of a proportion knowing the other three. Remember that proportionality is a constant relationship or ratio between different magnitudes.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, that is, when one magnitude increases, so does the other (or when one magnitude decreases, so does the other) , the direct rule of three must be applied. To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then:

$x=\frac{c*b}{a}$

You can apply the rule of three as follows: if by definition of solubility in 100 grams of H₂O there are 211 grams of sugar, in 300 g of H₂O how much sugar is there?

$sugar=\frac{300 grams of H_{2}O *211 grams of sugar}{100 grams of H_{2}O}$

sugar= 633 grams

<u><em>633 grams of sugar can be dissolved in 300 g of H₂O</em></u>
