Transition Metals 1a) The d-orbitals of a free transition metal atom or ion are degenerate (all have the same energy.) However‚ when transition metals form coordination complexes‚ the d-orbitals of the metal interact with the electron cloud of the ligands in such a manner that the d-orbitals become non-degenerate (not all having the same energy.) The way in which the orbitals are split into different energy levels is dependent on the geometry of the complex. Crystal field theory can be used to predict

We need more narrators. For example‚ he doesn’t know anything about the bombing in Dresden. That’s why the letters are important

Thomas Graham studied the behavior of the diffusion of gases of unequal densities when placed in contact with each other‚ using air as his control. He wanted to numerically prove how the diffusion of the gas volumes was inversely proportional to the value of the density of the gas‚ under constant temperature and pressure. The significance of this experiment was that in led to a reevaluation of the concept of the movement of matter‚ realizing that diffusion dealt with small immeasurable elements

Biology Homework Explain how blood sugar levels are regulated in your body. Blood sugar level (also known as blood glucose level) is the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood. The amount of glucose in the blood is expressed as millimoles per litre (mmol/l). Blood sugar levels are tightly regulated in the human body. Glucose‚ transported via the bloodstream‚ is the primary source of energy for the body’s cells. The levels of glucose in the blood are monitored by the cells in the pancreas. If
