Where will an electron bound in an atom have the largest electrical potential energy?

Question and answer

Where will an electron bound in an atom have the largest electrical potential energy?

When an electron is bound to an atom, it has a potential energy that is inversely proportional to its distance from the nucleus. This means that the potential energy is more when the electron is further away from the nucleus.

A certain radioactive isotope placed near a Geiger counter registers 160 counts per second. 32 hours later, the counter registers 10 counts per second. What is the half-life of the isotope? A. 8 hours B. 16 hours C. 24 hours D. 32 hours E. none of the above

Weegy: E. none of the above The half-life is 2 hours. Here is my reasoning. If you cut 160 in half you will have 80. 1/2 of 80 = 40. 1/2 of 40 = 20. 1/2 of 20 = 10. We repeated this process 4 times. Four half- lives have elapsed. [ Eight hours divided by 4, equals 2 hour. ] (More)
