Why are the d electrons less effective in shielding the nuclear charge than the s or p electrons, and are thus more polarizing?

I'm in an aerodynamics class, and I have this canard configuration I'm trying to figure out for a final exam. I need to find the sum of the moment about the center of gravity. I may cannot be helped without the drawing being posted. So far this is what i have: Mcg = Mac - (lcg + lw)Lw +...

In particular which configuration you will advise for memory distribution and in particular i am always puzzled by this cache memory:confused:

why is the electron configuration different for Z<20 and Z>90?

I would like to understand how I can configure IIS as my localhost, ISS doesn't have config file as does Apache ? After installing IIS, I tried accessing localhost but I was asked for username/password which I had never set up any, Thanks for any instructions you offer.

I used to understand this -- a few years ago -- but it has completely slipped my mind. What is going on with al this 1s2 and Like Cs[Xe]6s1? Thanks a lot, Mk

Which of the following three sets consist of atoms or ions with the same electron configuration in the ground state? I. O (2-), Ne, and Mg (2+) II. Ni, Cu+, Zn 2+ III. Hg, Tl+, and Pb (2+) a. all but (II) b. all but (I) c. all three sets d. only (I) Is it all but ii. because Cu...

Which principle or rule must be used to determine the correct electronic configuration for carbon in its ground state? a.Aufbau Principle b. Hund's Rule c. Pauli Exclusion Principle d. (A) and (B) only e. All three I know for a fact that Aufbau's and Hunds rule deal with ground state...

A sphere of radius R carries a charge density kr(where k is a constant!).What will be the energy of the Configuration??

Imagine a moderately long beam fixed at one end to a wall. Near the end of the beam, a very heavy weight is kept on top of the beam. At the same spot, two small beams are fixed under the main beam in a V shaped configuration such that the two beams form a sort of "press fit" i.e. they exert a...

-how would one predict electron configuration of an atom? (ex.Rb- [Ar]4s^2, 3d^10, 4p^6) ...How, help please

The requirements, posed on a system given by the configuration coordinates q(t) = (q^1(t), q^2(t), ...) that (1) they be subject to 2nd-order equations of motion: q'(t) = v(t), v'(t) = a(q(t),v(t)) and (2) have a classical configuration space at each time: [q^i(t), q^j(t)] = is nearly...

OK, I need some help here. I can´t really recognize the type of transistor configuration on a circuit (common emitter, common base, common colector). I`ll some tips that help me identify the configuration. Check the circuit attached.

Verizon is my DSL provider. I have difficulty logging into my.verizon.net (subscriber homepage) from Mozilla and from Firefox, but no problem logging in with Internet Explorer. In Internet Explorer I go to the verizon login page, enter username & password, and it loads (in the same...

This is a multiple choice question with the shown triple bond between the two carbons: I've narrowed it down to 2 diagrams a) .. C :: C b) C : : : C is it a). Please tell me if it's right. Thanks

How come the valance electrons of MO is [KR]5s^1 4d^5 and not [KR]5s^2 4d^4

does anyone noe how to configure ur ip address manually via the local area connection (lan) properties? i can change it but so can anyone but how do u make one that works? that's my problem, can anyone help? i have a static connection with a cable company, and my ip is assigned by the dhcp...

Quantum mechanics: classical indistinguishability? What is the quantum number correspondent to the maximal symmetry shared by any two real physical configurations in observable spacetime? For instance, any two protons have a high probability of sharing an identical set of quantum numbers...
