The correct answer is base
Answer: It was known as the SPACE RACE.
Explanation: The space race was a cold war between the Soviet Union (USSR) and the United States (US), to get satellites and humans into space. The competition began in earnest on August 2, 1955, when the Soviet Union responded to the US announcement. On April 12, 1961, the USSR surprised the world again by launching Yuri Gagarin into a single orbit around the Earth in a craft they called Vostok 1.
Answer: It showed that all atoms contain electrons.
Explanation:
- J.J. Thomson's experiments inside a cathode ray tube in the presence of an electric field showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles "electrons".
- Also, Thomson's plum pudding model of the atom had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup."
- Furthermore, Rutherford's gold foil experiment showed that the atom is mostly empty space with a tiny positively-charged nucleus.
- Then, Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom based on these results.
First let us determine the electronic configuration of
Bromine (Br). This is written as:
Br = [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p5
Then we must recall that the greatest effective nuclear
charge (also referred to as shielding) greatly increases as distance of the
orbital to the nucleus also increases. So therefore the electron in the
farthest shell will experience the greatest nuclear charge hence the answer is:
<span>4p orbital</span>
