Aline says that the magnetic moment of an atom originates in the orbital angular momentum of the electron. Bevis says that it comes from the electron spin. Which one, if either, is correct, and why?

◦
Aline, because only atoms, not electrons, can have angular momentum.

◦
Bevis, because only atoms, not electrons, can have angular momentum.

◦
Neither, because electron spin and orbital angular momentum always cancel exactly.

◦
Neither, because the magnetic moment of an atom comes only from the spin of the nucleus.

◦
Both, because both the orbital angular momentum and the spins of the electrons contribute to the magnetic moment of an atom.

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
