Question

which of the following is true for atoms? a. light is releasedwhen electrons in atoms move from higher energy levels.  b.the line-emission spectrum of a given kind of atom is unique tothe kind of atom. c. both a and b       d. neithera nor b according to the law of definite composition, any two samplesof KCl will have _____. a. the same mass   b. the same density  c. slightly different molecular strutures   d. the sameration of elements an electron for which n=4 has more ____ than an electron forwhich n=2. a. spin   b. stability   c.energy     d. wave nature which of the following is true for atoms? a. light is releasedwhen electrons in atoms move from higher energy levels.  b.the line-emission spectrum of a given kind of atom is unique tothe kind of atom. c. both a and b       d. neithera nor b according to the law of definite composition, any two samplesof KCl will have _____. a. the same mass   b. the same density  c. slightly different molecular strutures   d. the sameration of elements an electron for which n=4 has more ____ than an electron forwhich n=2. a. spin   b. stability   c.energy     d. wave nature

Explanation / Answer

c. both a and b are true statements,if by light they mean electromagnetic energy and not just visiblelight the law of definite composition means just what its nameimplies - that any compound will have a definite composition,regardless of the source...so d. is the correctanswer - that a compound will have the same ratio ofelements an electron for which n = 4 is an electron in a higherprinicpal energy level, and thus has c. moreenergy that one with n = 2
