introduction to quantum mechanics electrons

The long form of the periodic table is based upon the filling of a particular shell and has been accordingly divided into four blocks i.e. 's', 'p', 'd' and 'f' blocks. The 's' block elements involve the filling of 's' subshell. This block includes the elements of group 1 (or I A) and group 2..

Telefacsimile's or Fax machines are a must for many businesses around the world. The fax machine however, did not become widely used until the late 1980's. A fax means basically scanning a page to make an electronic representation of its text or graphics, compresses the data to save tran..

Biomolecules are complex organic molecules. These molecules form the basic structural constituent of a living cell. The organic compounds such as amino acids, nucleotides and monosaccharides serve as building blocks of complex biomolecules. The important biomolecules are proteins, carbohydrates and..

Elements of group 13 to 18 of the periodic table are collectively called 'p' block elements. The general electronic configuration of these elements is ns 2 np 1 - 6 . They involve the filling up of 'p' orbitals of their outermost shells, when their 's' orbitals are already filled...

The elements that lie in between S-block and P-block are the d-block elements. These elements are called transition elements as they show transitional properties between s and p-block elements. These elements contain partially filled d-orbitals and hence they are called as d-block elements. The gen..

Every cell, whether it is prokaryotic or eukaryotic, is enclosed in a thin covering called cell membrane . It is also called as plasma membrane or plasma lemma . The cell membrane can only be seen through the electron microscope since its thickness is well below the resolving power of hum..

Appliances used in our day to day life are based on the principles of electricity and magnetism. Electricity is one of the most important sources of energy. Lights, fans, motors, radios and television are some common appliances which work on electricity. Benjamin Franklin Historically, it was frict..

Electron Displacement in Covalent Bonds - Organic compounds mainly consist of covalent bonds. The displacements of the electron pairs in these covalent bonds may take place either on their own or under the influence of other species. Three types of electron displacemen..
