Answer:
a) a space in an atom where an electron is most likely to be found
Explanation:
Atomic orbital is the mathematical function which describes wave-like behavior of the electrons present in the atom.
It is used to calculate probability of finding the electron of the atom in any region around nucleus of the atom. Atomic orbital is the physical region or a three dimensional space where the probability of finding the electron is more than 90% which also means that the space where an electron is most likely to be found. They are boundless space and have definite energy.
Option A best describes atomic orbital.
I, D, B, E, H, C, J, F, A, G, K
The answer is a identical
I will use this conversion:
1m = 1000 mm => 1 = 1m / 1000mm
1 m = 100 cm=> 1 = 1m / 100cm
1m = 10 dm=> 1 = 1m / 10 dm
So,
B) 3.8 * 10^7 cm^3 = 3.8 * 10^7 cm^3 * [1m / 100cm]^3 = 38 m^3
C) 3.8 * 10^5 dm^3 * [1m / 10 dm]^3 = 380 m^3
D) 3.8 * 10^8 mm^3 * [1m / 1000 mm]^3 = 0.38 m^3
Now you can compare the four volumes and conclude which is the largest.
Answer: option C) 3.8 * 10^5 dm^3
