C. 6, 1, 0, -1/2

Explanation:

The four quantum numbers are:

Principal quantum number (n): this represents the energy level in which an orbital is located.
Azimuthal quantum number gives the shape of the orbitals in subshells accommodating the electrons.
Magnetic quantum number gives the number of spatial orientations or degeneracy of the orbitals in the subshells.
Spin quantum number describes the spinning of an electron in either clockwise or anticlockwise directions.

To know the electron with the highest energy, we use the principal quantum number values.

n values takes whole numbers i.e n = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7.............

The higher the value, the higher the energy level.

From the given quantum numbers, C has the highest energy levels.

What is the difference between an atom in the ground state and an atom in an excited state? A. The atom in the ground state has

Marizza181 [45]

The correct option is C.

An atom can be either in the ground state or in an excited state. An atom is said to be in the ground state, if the total energy of its electron can not be lowered by moving one or more electrons into different orbitals. At the ground state, the electrons in the atom have the lowest energy possible and they are stable. On the other hand, an atom is said to be in an excited state, if the energy of its electrons can be lowered by transferring one or more electrons into different orbitals. An atom in an excited state has more energy and is less stable.

Identify the single displacement reaction. 2H 2 + O 2 ⟶ 2H 2O Al 2S 3 ⟶ 2Al + 3S Cl 2 + 2KBr ⟶ 2KCl + Br 2 C 4H 12 + 7O 2 ⟶ 6H 2

ozzi

Answer: $Cl_2+2KBr\rightarrow 2KCl+Br_2$

Explanation:

A single displacement reaction is one in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its salt solution. Thus one element should be different from another element.

$Cl_2+2KBr\rightarrow 2KCl+Br_2$

Synthesis reaction is defined as the reaction where substances combine in their elemental state to form a single compound. $2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O$

Decomposition reaction is defined as the reaction where a single substance breaks down into two or more simpler substances.

$Al_2S_3\rightarrow 2Al+3S$

Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons burn in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water along with heat.

$C_4H_{12}+7O_2\rightarrow 6H_2O+4CO_2$

Have people considered that aliens could possibly live without oxygen and water and we are looking in the wrong direction for a

bija089 [108]

I have never heard anyone ever say anything about aliens only living by using the same metabolistic processes as humans... But.. there may likely be another planet out there that does use oxygen, although at a different percentage from Earths. Anyways, even if we do find "other" life forms, who's to say that they're on the same level as us? Have you ever considered the fact that ants to us are like we are to other life forms out there and maybe they don't want or can't communicate with us because they see themselves as superior?

Hope that helps!

Explain the units and how to solve the following metric conversion then solve the metric conversion by filling in the blank 12KM

LiRa [457]

Answer:- 12 km = 12000 m

Solution:- It's a metric unit conversion where we are asked to convert 12 km to m where km stands for kilometer and m stands for meter.

In metric conversions, kilo means 1000.

So, 1 km = 1000 m

It means, we multiply the given km by 1000 to get the answer in m as:

$12km(\frac{1000m}{1km})$

= 12000 m

Hence, 12 km = 12000 m.
