₁₅P 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³
₁₆S 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴
It is because: 1) phosphorus have 3 unpaired electrons in 3p shell, and that is more stable than 3p⁴ in sulfur, so it ie easier to remove 1 paired electron in sulphur to became 3p³.
2) repulsion in 3p shell in sulfur between 2 paired electrons is higher, so it is easier to remove that electron.
Answer:
Budding- A new organism growing from the body of the parent
Fragmentation- The parent breaks into parts that may regenerate into offspring
Binary Fission- The parent cell divides to produce a genetically identical cell
Answer:
An <u>Orbital </u>is the probability distribution of an electron in an atom or molecule.
Explanation:
As we know atom consists of sub-particles commonly known as protons, neutrons and electrons. The outer space around the nucleus where the probability of finding electrons is maximum is known as orbital. As the electrons are not precisely ordered around the nucleus hence it is not easy to tell the exact position of an electron.
Hence, four quantum numbers are used to locate the position of electrons around the nucleus.
i) Principle Quantum Number:
This number explains the main energy level which tend to increase in energy as the distance of electrons from nucleus are increased. Principle Quantum Numbers are integer number ranging from one to infinity. Hence, increase in this quantum number results in increase of the size of orbital.
ii) Azimuthal Quantum Number:
This Quantum Number explains the direction of particular orbital in 3-dimensional space. Also it is responsible for the shape of an orbital.
iii) Magnetic Quantum Number:
This Quantum Number also tells the direction of orbital in 3D space with respect to x, y and z axis.
iv) Spin Quantum Number:
This Quantum Number tells about the spin direction of an electron about its axis which may be clockwise or anticlockwise.
The central Xe atom in XeO3 has three bonding domains and one lone pair of electrons. Hence, the electron geometry is tetrahedral and molecular geometry is pyramidal.
