Answer and Explanation:
It's very important to assume that the rate of radioactive decay will remain constant over time to make scientists' lives easier when calculating the ages of fossils, compounds, etc.
If the rate changes, it would be extremely challenging for people to figure out the relative ages of rock strata, fossils, or other substances with radioactive elements in them. This is a fundamental assumption in order to be able to use radioactive dating.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
mirrors and metal thermometers
Explanation:
ooga booga
The answer is potassium. It would be 4, and for neon would be 2. Just total which row of the periodic table you are on. The "L" tells you whether the highest-energy electron is in an "s" orbital (L=0) or a "p" orbital (L=1) or a "d" orbital (L=2) or an "f" orbital (L=3). The way in which these orbitals are filled is: for each of the first three rows (up to argon), two electrons in the "s" orbital are filled first, then 6 electrons in the "p"orbitals. The row where the potassium also starts with filling the "s" orbital at the new "n" level (4) but then goes back to satisfying up the "d" orbitals of n=3 before it seals up the "p"s for n=4.
