Periodic trends vary as we move across the periodic table. in general, as you move across a row (from left to right) in the periodic table a) ionic size increases. b) atomic radius decreases. c) nuclear charge decreases. d) ionization energy decreases.

An ideal transformer has 60 turns in its primary coil and 360 turns in its secondary coil. if the input rms voltage for the 60-turn coil is 120 v, what is the output rms voltage of the secondary coil?

The functioning of an electron transport chain is analogous to a) a slinky toy going down a flight of stairs. b) a canoe going over a waterfall. c) a person climbing a flight of stairs one step at a time. d) a person leaping from the top to the bottom of a flight of stairs in one jump.

The particle in a two-dimensional well is a useful model for the motion of electrons around the indole ring (3), the conjugated cycle found in the side chain of tryptophan. we may regard indole as a rectangle with sides of length 280 pm and 450 pm, with 10 electrons in the conjugated p system. as in case study 9.1, we assume that in the ground state of the molecule each quantized level is occupied by two electrons. (a) calculate the energy of an electron in the highest occupied level. (b) calculate the frequency of radiation that can induce a transition between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied levels. 9.27 electrons around the porphine ring (4), the conjugated macrocycle that forms the structural basis of the heme group and the chlorophylls. we may treat the group as a circular ring of radius 440 pm, with 20 electrons in the conjugated system moving along the perimeter of the ring. as in exercise 9.26, assume that in the ground state of the molecule quantized each level is occupied by two electrons. (a) calculate the energy and angular momentum of an electron in the highest occupied level. (b) calculate the frequency of radiation that can induce a transition between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied levels.
