Answer:
3
Explanation:
Applying,
= R/R'............... Equation 1
Where n' = number of halflives that have passed, R = Original atom of the substance, R' = atom of the substance left after decay.
From the question,
Given: R = 40 atoms, R' = 5 atoms
Substitute these values into equation 1
= 40/5
= 8
= 2³
Equation the base,
n' = 3
The physical state, or phase, that has the greatest kinetic energy is gas. In a gas, the molecules are more free to move and they move more rapidly than in the other phases, and it is this motion that constitutes kinetic energy.
by putting to much current through it ?
Answer:
An orbital is a region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron.
Explanation:
The orbital is a concept that developed in quantum mechanics. Recall that Neils Bohr postulated that the electron occupied stationary states which he called energy levels. Electrons emit radiation when the move from a higher to a lower energy level. Similarly, energy is absorbed by an electron to move from a lower to a higher orbit.
This idea was upturned by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. This principle state that the momentum and position of a particle can not be simultaneously measured with precision.
Instead of defining a 'fixed position' for the electron, we define a region in space where there is a possibility of finding an electron with a certain amount of energy. This orbital is identified by a set of quantum numbers.
