Answer:
n=6 to n=3 (B)
Explanation:
Energy of an electron present in the
orbit is directly proportional to
.Hence a transistion from one orbit to another orbit emits an energy proportional to the difference of their squares of the orbits. that is if an electron travels from orbit n1 to orbit n2 then it emits an energy corresponding to
.So in the above question the highest energy emission occurs when an electron moves from n=6 to n=3.(Highest difference of energy levels).
Answer:
2
Explanation:
Each orbital can hold two electrons. One spin-up and one spin-down.
<span>The student is incorrect because helium has 2 valence electrons and it's in group 18 because the first energy level is full. Although helium is placed in Group 18 which generally has 8 valence electrons, it does not have 8 valence electrons as the student suggested. It was grouped together with the noble gases because it exhibits similar properties with them. </span>
Answer:
The bombarding particle is a Proton
Explanation:
A Nuclear transmutation reaction occurs when radioactive element decay, usually converting them from one element/isotope into another element. Transmutation is the process which causes decay, generally, alpha or beta.
¹⁶₈O(P,alpha) ¹³₇N, can be written as
¹⁶₈O + x goes to ¹³₇N + ⁴₂He
Where x can be anything, balancing the equation in order to give us the correct amount of proton number and nucleus number
16 + x = 13 + 4
x = 17 – 16 = 1, Hence we can say that x = ¹₁P
<u>¹⁶₈O + ¹₁P goes to ¹³₇N + ⁴₂He</u>
Here we can clearly see the bombarding particle is ¹₁P (proton). The ejected particle being ⁴₂He which is also known as an alpha particle
