Doss [256]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Each orbital can only carry at most 2 electrons wih opposite spins.

The first 3 shells are fully filled, giving 9 orbitals.

There is an extra electron in 4s, which gives another orbital. (even though it is not filled yet)

Hence there are 10 orbitals.

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

For the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), we can notice that when the temperatures increases, the pressure or the volume must increase.

For the container with constant volume, the pressure will increase. Because density is mass/volume, in this container the density will not change.

For the other container, the pressure must be the same as the external, so it will not change, then the volume must increase. When the volume increases, the density decreases (density = mass/volume), so the pressure doesn't change and the density decreases.

Two German chemists, Justus von Liebig (1803–1873) and Friedrich Wöhler (1800–1882), were responsible for the emergence of organic chemistry in the early nineteenth century. Their quantitative analytical methods helped establish the constitution of newly isolated and synthesized carbon compounds.
