An electron microscope focuses electrons through magneticlenses to observe objects at higher magnification than is possiblewith a light microscope. For any microscope, the smallest objectthat can be observed is one-half the wavelength of the radiationused. Thus, for example, the smallest object that can be observedwith light of 400 nm is 2X10⁻⁷m. (a) What is the smallest ob-ject observable with an electron microscope using electronsmoving at 5.5X10^4m/s? (b) At 3.0X10^7m/s
Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
