Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify s orbitals

An s orbital has a spherical shape. Image B is a spherical shape, thus represents an s orbital.

Step 2: List the s orbitals

The only s orbital depicted is B.

Step 3: Identify p orbitals

A p orbital has a dumbbell shape. Images C and D are dumbbell shapes and therefore represent p orbitals.

Final Answer:

  • Are any of them s orbitals? yes
  • List the s orbitals, if any. B
  • Are any of them p orbitals? yes
  • List the p orbitals, if any. C, D

Video One, a Blu-ray disc player manufacturer, produces two models of Blu-ray players. The mini-blue, which can only play a Blu-ray disc and the media-blue that plays Blu-ray disc and contains a personal DVR. The players are assembled on two different assembly lines. Line 1 can assemble 2 units of the mini-blue model and 13 units of the media-blue model per hour, and Line 2 can assemble 4 units of the mini-blue model and 8 units of the media-blue model per hour. The company needs to produce at least 48 units of the mini-blue model and 168 units of the media-blue model to fill an order. If it costs 400 for each hour of Line 1 and 800 for each hour of Line 2. How many hours of each line should be run to minimize cost? Let x= the number of hours for Line 1 Let y= the number of hours for Line 2.
