1. Which principle states that an orbital can hold at most two electrons, one with spin up and one with spin down?

Explanation

The Pauli Exclusion Principle is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics that states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same four quantum numbers. This leads to the limitation of two electrons with opposite spins in each orbital.

2. What principle states that it is impossible to simultaneously measure both the position and the velocity of a particle with complete accuracy?

Explanation

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, proposed by Werner Heisenberg, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics that states the limitations in accurately measuring both the position and velocity of a particle.

3. Matter cannot be created or destroyed in ordinary physical, chemical, or biological processes.

Explanation

The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be created or destroyed, only rearranged. This fundamental principle applies to various scientific fields.

Submit
4. What law states that the force between two charged objects is proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them?

Explanation

Coulomb's Law describes the electrostatic interaction between charged objects based on their charges and distances. Newton's Law of Gravitation deals with gravitational force, Ohm's Law relates current, voltage, and resistance in circuits, and Faraday's Law describes electromagnetic induction.

Submit
5. What is the Planck-Einstein relation between frequency and energy for light?

Explanation

The correct relation between frequency (v) and energy (E) for light is represented by E= hv, where h is Planck's constant.

Submit
6. According to which rule, when filling a set of degenerate orbitals, electrons occupy separate orbitals with parallel spin if possible?

Explanation

Hund's Rule states that when filling degenerate orbitals, electrons will occupy separate orbitals with parallel spins before pairing up.

Submit
7. What is the name of the equation Lambda = h/mv?

Explanation

The equation Lambda = h/mv is known as DeBroglie's equation which relates the wavelength of a particle to its momentum. This concept was introduced by Louis de Broglie in his work on the wave-particle duality of matter.

Submit
8. Which scientific principle states that all pure samples of a compound contain the same elements in the same proportion by mass?

Explanation

The Law of Definite Proportions, also known as the Law of Constant Composition, states that a compound always contains the same elements in definite proportions by mass.
