To show the electron configuration for an atom, when would it be better to use an orbital notation than to use a written configu
VikaD [51]
The answer is <span>D.when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells. This is because there are some instances when elements don't possess a regular or normal electron configuration. There are those who have special electron configurations wherein a lower subshell isn't completely filled before occupying a higher subshell. It is best to visualize such cases using the orbital notation.</span>

10. Which of the following mirror is used to form smaller image
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Correct answer is b) convex mirror

Explanation:

A convex mirror, which bulges outward, reflects at a wider angle near its edges than at its center, creating a slightly distorted image that's smaller than actual size. Convex mirrors have many uses. The smaller size of the images means that you can see more with these surfaces, hence their use in safety mirrors.
