Answer:
1) Ca: [Ar]4s²
2) Pm: [Xe]6s²4f⁵
Explanation:
1) Ca:
Its atomic number is 20. So it has 20 protons and 20 electrons.
Since it is in the row (period) 4 the noble gas before it is Ar, and the electron configuration is that of Argon whose atomic number is 18.
So, you have two more electrons (20 - 18 = 2) to distribute.
Those two electrons go the the orbital 4s.
Finally, the electron configuration is [Ar] 4s².
2) Pm
The atomic number of Pm is 61, so it has 61 protons and 61 electrons.
Pm is in the row (period) 6. So, the noble gas before Pm is Xe.
The atomic number of Xe is 54.
Therefore, you have to distribute 61 - 54 = 7 electrons on the orbitals 6s and 4f.
The resultant distribution for Pm is: [Xe]6s² 4f⁵.
Answer:
17 ohms
Explanation:
Given that,
In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance.
We need to find the total resistance of the circuit.
The equivalent resistance for series combination is given by :
For 17 light bulbs, the equivalent resistance is given by :
Hence, the total resistance is 17 ohms. Hence, the correct option is (d).
Umm...Well...
Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle says that we can never know both the position and rate of change of a particle at any time. We can only know one or the other. This leads to rather silly jokes that deal with uncertainty, probability, and superposition. So, saying that "Heisenberg may have slept here" is essentially saying that it is uncertain if Heisenberg slept there or not, making for a rather silly, but slightly unfunny physics joke.
