- Type in electron configurations for the following atoms and ions. Use the noble gas shortcut. The answer boxes don't support special formatting like superscripts, so I've programmed the answers as follows. As an example, the electron config for carbon would usually be: [He]2s°2p? But the ansvwer box can't hold superscripts, so type it in with spaces between each orbital and the next, like so: [He] 2s2 2p2 Can -- what you - - A ATA typed and what Ti (Ar] 3d2 4s2 Co [Ar] 3d7 4s2 Y2+ [Kr] 4d1 Bi3+ [Xe]6s2 4f14 5d10arrow_forwardFor each of the statements below, indicate whether it is true or false and explain your reasoning.

Explain what the orbital approximation is in the context of this 5 electron atom. 3. For this atom with 5 electrons, how do the energies of the 2s and 2p subshells compare?

Photosynthesis doesn't just happen in green plants; it can occur in bacteria, as well. It occurs when light- harvesting molecules absorb energy in the form of light and transfer it to a reaction center, where light energy is converted to chemical energy. Most of us know about chlorophyll as the light-harvesting molecule, but there are many forms of chlorophyll found in different organisms. However, they all have similar properties when interacting with light.
