A second important result is that electrons will fill the lowest energy states available. This would seem to indicate that every

electron in an atom should be in the n=1 state. This is not the case, because of Pauli's exclusion principle. The exclusion principle says that no two electrons can occupy the same state. A state is completely characterized by the four numbers n, l, ml, and ms, where ms is the spin of the electron. An important question is, How many states are possible for a given set of quantum numbers? For instance, n=1 means that l=0 with ml=0 are the only possible values for those variables. Thus, there are two possible states: (1, 0, 0, 1/2) and (1, 0, 0, −1/2). How many states are possible for n=2? Express your answer as an integer.

Answer:

  • 8

Explanation:

1)<u> Principal quantum number, n = 2</u>

  • n is the principal quantum number and indicates the main energy level.

<u>2) Second quantum number, ℓ</u>

  • The second quantum number, ℓ,  is named, Azimuthal quantum number.

The possible values of ℓ are from 0 to n - 1.

Hence, since n = 2, there are two possible values for ℓ: 0, and 1.

This gives you two shapes for the orbitals: 0 corresponds to "s" orbitals, and 1 corresponds to "p" orbitals.

<u>3) Third quantum number, mℓ</u>

  •    The third quantum number, mℓ, is named magnetic quantum number.

The possible values for mℓ are from - ℓ to + ℓ.

Hence, the poosible values for mℓ when n = 2 are:

  • for ℓ = 0: mℓ = 0
  • for ℓ = 1, mℓ = -1, 0, or +1.

<u>4) Fourth quantum number, ms.</u>

  • This is the spin number and it can be either +1/2  or -1/2.

Therfore the full set of possible states (different quantum number for a given atom) for n = 2 is:

  • (2, 0, 0 +1/2)
  • (2, 0, 0, -1/2)
  • (2, 1, - 1, + 1/2)
  • (2, 1, -1, -1/2)
  • (2, 1, 0, +1/2)
  • (2, 1, 0, -1/2)
  • (2, 1, 1, +1/2)
  • (2, 1, 1, -1/2)

That is a total of <u>8 different possible states</u>, which is the answer for the question.

Ben made a model (shown below) of the square pyramid he plans to build when he grows up.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

336 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a square pyramid is the sum of the area of the squared base + 4 times the area of each triangular face, therefore:

A=A_b + 4A_t

where:

A_b=L^2 is the area of the base, where

L is the length of the base

A_t=\frac{1}{2}Lh is the area of each triangular face, where

h is the height of the face

Substituting,

A=L^2+2Lh

For the model in this problem,

L = 12

h = 8

Therefore, the surface area here is:

A=12^2 +2(12)(8)=336

A.It will stay the same
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's arrange the data set in increasing order.

We have 19, 27, 27, 33, 45, 53. The median is (27 + 33) / 2 = 30.

The new set is 19, 27, 27, 33, 45, 53, 90. The new median is 33.

Since 33 - 30 = 3 the answer is B.

A ball is thrown upward from the top of a 40 foot high building at a speed of 80 feet per second. The ball's height above
tekilochka [14]

it takes 5 seconds to reach a height of 40 ft. and It takes 2.5 seconds to reach maximum height.

Let h(t) represent the height of the ball at time t.

Given that the height is given by:

h(t) = -16t² + 80t + 40

1) For the ball to reach a height 0f 40 ft, h(t) = 40, hence:

40 = -16t² + 80t + 40

16t² - 80t = 0

t(t - 5) = 0

t = 0 or t = 5

Hence it takes 5 seconds to reach a height of 40 ft.

2) The maximum height is at h'(t) = 0,

h'(t) = -32t + 80

-32t + 80 = 0

32t = 80

t = 2.5

It takes 2.5 seconds to reach maximum height.
