Which of the following would not have significant effect on the probability distribution of position of an electron (in a given combination of quantum numbers) in the hydrogen atom?
 
  a.the angle theta
 

b. the azimuthal angle probability distribution
  c. the spherical harmonic for that combination of angular momentum and magnetic quantum numbers
  d. the radial wave equation for that combination of principal and angular momentum quantum numbers
  e. the distance from the nucleus


 

Question 2

The gyromagnetic ratio
 
a.is 1 for the magnetic moment associated with the spin and 2 for the magnetic moment associated with the angular momentum.
  b.relates the Bohr magneton to the elementary charge.
  c. does not help explain the result of the Stern and Gerlach experiment.
  d. relates the magnetic moments of spin and angular momentum to the total angular momentum.
  e.gives the values of intrinsic spin quantum number of the electron as 1/2 and -1/2

Answer to Question 1

b.
Around the z-axis, there is symmetry due to the canceling out of exponentials in the azimuthal solution to Schrdinger's equation.

Answer to Question 2

d.
The gyromagnetic ratio does relate the magnetic moments of spin and angular momentum to the total angular momentum

Vital signs (blood pressure, temperature, pulse rate, respiration rate) should be taken before any drug administration. Patients should be informed not to use tobacco or caffeine at least 30 minutes before their appointment.

For about 100 years, scientists thought that peptic ulcers were caused by stress, spicy food, and alcohol. Later, researchers added stomach acid to the list of causes and began treating ulcers with antacids. Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.

Certain chemicals, after ingestion, can be converted by the body into cyanide. Most of these chemicals have been removed from the market, but some old nail polish remover, solvents, and plastics manufacturing solutions can contain these substances.

Symptoms of kidney problems include a loss of appetite, back pain (which may be sudden and intense), chills, abdominal pain, fluid retention, nausea, the urge to urinate, vomiting, and fever.

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
