If an atom has 15 electrons, how many electrons are in the n=1 energy level?

Biology

IRISSAK [1]2 years ago

Answer:

In the n=1 energy level, the atom has 2 electrons

Explanation:

Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom in multiple rings (energy levels). The first ring of the electron can only hold 2 electrons. After that, electrons are added to the second ring. Excluding the first ring, all other rings can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.

For example, Oxygen is an atom with 6 electrons. The first energy level contains 2 electrons, and the second energy level contains 4 electrons. The second energy level has room for up to 4 more electrons.

In your example of an atom with 15 electrons, there would be 2 electrons in the first ring, 8 electrons in the second ring, and 5 electrons in the third and final ring.

To summarize, all atoms have a first energy level containing 2 electrons, and all other energy levels can contain 8 electrons. This is true no matter the number of electrons.

Maybe it’s because in order the get the same apple you breed more of that apple? It would take less time than natural selection since the genes of that certain apple may not appear for a few generations. If this makes any sense let me know because I’m just as confused as you are.

Which human body systems interact to perform temperature regulation along with the nervous and endocrine systems?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Hypothalamus of human body system interact to perform temperature regulation along with nervous system and endocrine system.

Explanation:

Hypothamus is an important part of our lower brain that play a significant role in regulation of body temperature.

   Hypothalamus works with nervous system along with the other parts of our body such as blood vessels,skin and sweat gland to maintain temperature homeostasis of human body.

  When our body temperature rises at that time hypothalamus slows down the rate of metabolism of our body to restrict further increase in our body temperature and also dilates the blood vessels present beneath the skin so that body can liberate heat to the environment.

 on the other hand when the body temperature decreases at that time hypothalamus increases the metabolic rate of our body to increase the body temperature and also the constrict the blood vessels present under the skin.

What structure forms during angiosperm fertilization but does not form during fertilization among other types of plants?
OLEGan [10]
The answer is '<span>triploid cell'. 
</span>

This occurs when two sperm nuclei reach the interior of a female gametophyte, where one sperm will fertilise the egg cell to form a zygote, whereas the other usually fuses with the binucleate central cell, forming a primary endosperm cell, effectively constituting an organism separate from the growing embryo. Approximately 70% of angiosperm species have polyploid endosperm cells which are typically triploid (containing three sets of chromosomes), but can vary widely from diploid(2n) to 15n.
