Photographs are taken of falling drops of two different liquids: Liquid X Liquid Y Note: the drops have identical volumes. Notice that the oncoming wind tends to flatten out each drop as it falls. What's different about liquids X and Y

See explanation

Explanation:

The reason why the droplets are spherical is  the surface area to volume ratio of the falling droplet in a gravitational field. Recall that a sphere has a small surface area to volume ratio.

Between X and Y, one key difference that will define the rate at which the two drops of liquid falls is the viscosity of the fluid. Since the images were not attached, I can not really tell what liquid droplet is more flatter  than the other.

However, the liquid with a greater surface tension will form larger droplets and experience a greater air resistance as the droplet falls. Hence the less the surface tension, the flatter the droplets. Cohesive forces pull molecules of a liquid droplets inwards leading to a more spherical shape and reducing the surface area. Surface tension is therefore the reason why liquids form droplets.

the electronic configuration of an atom with eight electrons is 1s²2s²2p⁴. the orbital diagrams are shown in the figure.

as per the hunds rule:

1. electrons tend to avoid being in the same orbital as per as practicable.

2. electrons in different orbitals of the same energy will have their spin parallel.

this can be illustrated from the multiplicity of the orbitals of the atom. as there are four electrons in the p orbital and p orbital has 3 sub-shells. the electrons can be fed in different ways as shown in the figure but the correct orbital diagram will be as per the hunds rule.

c-14 is carbon-14, or radiocarbon.   it is a radioactive isotope of carbon with an atomic nucleus containing 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
