Answer:

The number of protons determines an element's atomic number (Z) and distinguishes one element from another. For example, carbon's atomic number (Z) is 6 because it has 6 protons. The number of neutrons can vary to produce isotopes, which are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons.

List a possible set of four quantum numbers (n,l,ml,ms) in order, for the highest energy electron in gallium?

Elena-2011 [213]

Gallum: Z = 31

electron configuration: [Ar] 4s^2 3d10 4s2 4p1

Highest energy electron: 4p1

Quantum numbers:

n = 4, because it is the shell number
l = 1, it corresponds to type p orbital
ml = may be -1, or 0, or +1, depending on space orientation, they correspond to px, py, pz
ms = may be -1/2 or +1/2, this is the spin number.

The ratio of sizes between the ionic radii of anions and cations in a cell has no influence on the manner of packing for that ce

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is B. False

Explanation:

The ratio of sizes between the ionic radii of cations and anions in a cell influences the manner of packing for that cell thereby predicting the possible cation/anion coordination number in any compound and establishing the structure of ionic solids.
