What is a orbit in a atom?
http://www.answers.com/topic/atomic-orbital Atomic orbitals are cloud like structures around the nucleus of an atom that contain the atoms electrons. There are s, p, d, and f orbitals. S contain up to 2 electrons, P contain up to 6 electrons, d contain up to 10 electrons, and f contain up to 14 electrons. These orbitals have electrons containing different amounts of energy, and it is possible for electrons to jump to and from different orbitals. When this happen energy either needs to be added or released. The number of orbitals present in an atom is completely dependent on the number of electrons present in the atom.
How long should a procedure be for a science project?
a procedure should be at least 5-10 steps. according to my science teacher.
Why do some people say hydrogen should be above lithium Li and others argue that it should be above fluorine F?
Some people say hydrogen should be above lithium (Li) and others argue that it should be above fluorine (F) because it has a valence shell that only accepts two electrons.
Atom x has 8 protons 8 neutrons in the nucleus two electrons in the first shell and eight electrons in the next shell this atom is?
Your information is inconsistant: Either this is a normal O16 with only 6 electrons in the outer shell, or this is a negative oxygen ion. Go with choice #1. this guy must have missed the 2 electrons in the first shell, it can't be a normal O16 atom because there are more electrons than protons, so it is a negative ion
According to the Handbook of Forensic Services what should be used when photographing latent prints?

What should electrons do according to classical macroeconomic theory?
none of the above. or all of the above for plato!
Why does classical physics predict that atoms should collapse?
Classical physics predicts that electrons orbiting the nucleus in atoms should continuously radiate energy and spiral inward, eventually collapsing into the nucleus due to electromagnetic forces. This prediction contradicts observations and the stability of atoms, which led to the development of quantum mechanics to explain the behavior of particles at atomic scales.
What should be the major purpose of government according to classical republicanism?
According to the view of classical republicanism, the primary purpose of government is to promote the common good. Classical republicanism dates back to the Renaissance.
What property should you increase to increase the energy of an electromagnetic wave?
To increase the energy of an electromagnetic wave, you should increase its frequency. Energy is directly proportional to frequency for electromagnetic waves, according to the equation E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is frequency.
Mention two defects in Rutherford atomic model?
according to classical theory, electrons being the charged particles should release or emit energy continuously and they should ultimately fall into the nucleus. if the electrons emit energy continuously, they should form a continuous spectrum but in fact, line spectrum was observed.
Can classical physics explain the photoelectric effect?
No. To explain the photoelectric effect, you have to think of light as a particle, not a wave. The fact that light can be both a wave and a particle is part of quantum mechanics, not classical physics.
What was the problem with Rutherford's model of atoms?
Rutherford and other scientists had guessed that electrons move around the nucleus as planets move around the sun. * accelerating charges produce some kind of light or electromagnetic radiation.an electron traveling around a nucleus in a circular orbit is constantly accelerating because it is changing it's direction. And according to classical theory , these electrons should emit photons of electromagnetic radiation, losing energy in the process. because they lose energy, they should ultimately collapse into the nucleus. but this does not happen in real life. the materials we see around us are obviously stable ,and because of that reason , they must be composed of stable atoms.basically, without realizing the existence of energy levels among electrons, he could not explain the chemical properties of an atom. Also, without the ability to jump into an orbit closer to the nucleus when an electron looses energy, the atom would implode ... ouch -- black hole ... but that's another subject
Why it is said that outermost shell should contain 8 electrons?
According to the Octect Rule, an atom is most stable when its outermost shell has 8 electrons. So atoms try to attain 8 electrons in their outer shell.

Who Showed that light consists of electromagnetic waves?
James Clerk Maxwell, on the basis of some calculations, predicted that something called electromagnetic waves should exist. Since, according to his calculations, these waves would propagate at the speed of light, he suggested that light might also be an electromagnetic wave. This was later confirmed - but I am not sure who confirmed it.
What couldn't Rutherford model explain?
The Rutherford model of atom has neither addressed the process of radiation of atoms nor could it explain the stability of the atom in spite of the revolving electrons around the nucleus. According to electrodynamics the electron should radiate electromagnetic waves. A simple calculation shows that an electron starting from a circular orbit of the size of an atom will spiral into the nucleus by radiating away its energy in a very short time, about 10-8 s. This makes stability of the atom impossible, which is not the case.
