Describe the electron configuration of an atom using principal energy level, sublevels, orbitals, and periodic table. Give one example others may not think about and why you made this selection.

Comment 1

An atom has negatively charged electrons. These electrons orbit around the atom in shells located around the atoms also contains subshells within it. Subshells or orbitals are represented by lowercase letters s, p, d, f, etc…Each orbital of an atom holds a certain amount of electrons maximum from inside out the amount that could be carried is 2,6,10,14
The electron configuration of an atom can be seen as the group of the elementFor example chromium, I am using this example because it has an involvement in blood sugar regulation. And the configuration for this element is Cr (24)= 1s 2,2s 2 ,2p 6,3s 2,3p 6,4s 1,3d 5 On the periodic table we se that this element is a group number 6. In this element we see that there is an exception where the stability of the atom changes. We know from the periodic table that chromium is period 4 because the last number of energy in its last shell is 4. The atomic mass of the element is 51.996
Comment 2

The periodic table shows an array of information of each type of element and is carefully mapped out to show not only the atomic number and atomic mass number, but it also categorized into its electron configuration. An electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom.

The electrons are located around the nucleus of an atom called an electron shell and are represented by n. The electron shells have more than one subshells which are notated as s,p,d, and f. These subshells have more than one orbitals. Each orbital can hold to a maximum of two electrons. Furthermore, electrons have the tendency to fill up the lowest energy orbital.

An example of an electron configuration I chose is calcium. From the table I am able to identify that it has an atomic number of 20 which also tells me it has 20 electrons. The electron configuration is as follows: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p64s2. I chose this element because calcium is an essential mineral that is a necessary nutrient for organisms to have to properly function.

Human Factors in Health & Safety

/in /by

In this task you are expected to visit any industry of your choice and conduct an incident investigation ( preferable oil & gas filed or construction site ).

The report should consist of approximately 1500 words.

The Report Should Focus on identifying the role of human factors in the occurrence and consequence of the chosen accident.

You are required to refer from wide range of literature review materials and sources to write this report.

The report should be preferably submitted in the following format:

Introduction- general introduction on human factors about the incident
Role of Human Factors consequences -identify and explain the specific dimensions and features that influence the accident
Failures/errors- Classify specific human failures types and explain the failure/error with relevance to the accident Study
Conclusion
References

Sub-urbanization and gentrification

/in /by

Sub-urbanization and gentrification are two concepts that reflect part of American ideology, the American Dream. They are concepts that describe housing patterns and neighborhood development as well as evoke images of success, failure, and the opportunity structure. On the other hand, the fact that most of the nation’s poor are living in the suburbs, that gentrification reduces the amount of affordable housing available in urban areas, and that these phenomena exacerbate patterns of segregation are issues not widely discussed.
Identify and discuss three different factors that contribute to current trends in sub-urbanization, gentrification, and residential segregation in American society today. (At least one social factor must be structural.)
Which factors do you find most significant and which most difficult to change? Do these factors apply to everyone in society or just certain groups or specific geographic regions? Draw on at least two theories you learned this semester as well as information from academic/peer reviewed resources to develop an explanation for this emergent trend.
