Answer:

An orbital is a region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron.

Explanation:

The orbital is a concept that developed in quantum mechanics. Recall that Neils Bohr postulated that the electron occupied stationary states which he called energy levels. Electrons emit radiation when the move from a higher to a lower energy level. Similarly, energy is absorbed by an electron to move from a lower to a higher orbit.

This idea was upturned by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. This principle state that the momentum and position of a particle can not be simultaneously measured with precision.

Instead of defining a 'fixed position' for the electron, we define a region in space where there is a possibility of finding an electron with a certain amount of energy. This orbital is identified by a set of quantum numbers.

The crack shown in the lithosphere was created by the movement of two or more tectonic plates. What is this crack called
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The lithosphere is made up of pieces of tectonic plates. These plates are constantly changing and move towards the mantle. Non-stop movement of tectonic plates causes stress on the earth's outermost layer i.e,the crust. When these stresses extends it leads to cause cracks called faults.

How many moles of carbon are in 3.5 L?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

0.16mole

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we are going to assume that the number of moles of carbon to be determined is that at STP, standard temperature and pressure.

The number of moles of a substance at STP is given as;

 Number of moles  = \frac{volume}{22.4}  

Given volume  = 3.5L

Now, insert the parameters;

     Number of moles  = \frac{3.5}{22.4}   = 0.16mole
