Quantum numbers<span> allow us to both simplify and dig deeper into electron configurations. Electron configurations allow us to identify energy level, subshell, and the number of electrons in those locations. If you choose to go a bit further, you can also add in x,y, or z subscripts to describe the exact orbital of those subshells (for example </span><span>2<span>px</span></span>). Simply put, electron configurations are more focused on location of electrons then anything else. 
<span>
Quantum numbers allow us to dig deeper into the electron configurations by allowing us to focus on electrons' quantum nature. This includes such properties as principle energy (size) (n), magnitude of angular momentum (shape) (l), orientation in space (m), and the spinning nature of the electron. In terms of connecting quantum numbers back to electron configurations, n is related to the energy level, l is related to the subshell, m is related to the orbital, and s is due to Pauli Exclusion Principle.</span>

How does the law of conservation of energy apply to a light bulb? the electrical energy put into the light bulb equals the light
andrew-mc [135]
<span>The law of conservation of energy applies to a light bulb because the energy is being transformed into light and the light bulb is acting as a catalyst. The light bulb itself is not a form of energy, however when in combination with the electrical outlet to the bulb the electricity heats up the metal interior forming it into light. according to the law of conservation energy cannot be created or destroyed, but instead is formed into different kinds of energy. In relation to a light bulb electrical currents are forming heat energy by heating up the metal interior, then the bulb or glass around it allows to radiate light.</span>

In any energy transformation, there is always some energy that gets wasted as non-useful heat.
Nady [450]
It is a completely false statement that in <span>any energy transformation, there is always some energy that gets wasted as non-useful heat. The correct option among the two options that are given in the question is the second option. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.</span>
