Anvisha [2.4K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

An orbital is is the space occupied by a pair of electrons. The maximum number of electrons in an orbital is 2.

The maximum number of electrons in in the orbitals are two.

For s-sublevel with one orbital we have two electrons

      p-sublevel with three orbitals we have six electrons

      d - sublevel with five orbitals we have ten electrons

     f - sublevel with seven orbitals we have fourteen electrons

Each orbital can take a maximum of two electrons.

What is the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus emits charged particles or energy or both?
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Radioactivity is defined as a process in which an unstable atomic nucleus decays continuously and after a specific period of time changes into a much more stable element. During this time of decay, the nucleus emits charged particles (energy) which are known as the α, β and γ particles. These are often emitted in the form of electromagnetic energy and are very dangerous to health.

The radioactive elements decay at a certain rate which is commonly known as the half-life. Half-life is basically defined as the time required by a radioactive substance to decay half of its initial composition.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

A piece of metal that has a density of 5.2 g/cm3 and a mass of 100 g was placed in a full jar of water. How many mL of water was
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

100g / (5.2g/cm3)

= 100g / (5.2g / 1cm3)

= 100g x 1cm3 / 5.2 g

= 19.2 cm3

Since 1 cm3 = 1 ml, your answer is 19.2 ml.

Diffusion is a general term referring to the net movement of atoms and molecules along a concentration gradient, from an area of
aniked [119]

Answer:

Higher concentration to an area of lower concentration

Explanation:

When you open a perfume bottle at a corner of a room, after a while, its fragrance can be perceived across a distance at the other end of the room. This is because, molecules of the compound in the fragrance have moved from the area of higher concentration in the perfume bottle, across a concentration gradient to a region of lower concentration at the other end of the room. This is diffusion.
