If many scientists conduct the same or similar experiments, and all obtain similar results, a can be written, which is a generally agreed-upon statement that explains and predicts how a natural phenomenon works.

Which of the following statements is true about energy quantization at the atomic level? electrons in the outermost orbits are the most stable. electrons in all the orbits around the nucleus have the same amount of energy. electrons in the orbit closest to the nucleus have the least amount of energy. electrons absorb or release the same amount of energy independent of the energy levels.

What is the difference between covalent bonds and ionic bonds? covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms; ionic bonds involve the electrical attraction between charged atoms. covalent bonds involve the transfer of electrons between charged atoms; ionic bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms. covalent bonds involve the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms; ionic bonds involve the sharing of single electrons between atoms. covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms; ionic bonds involve the sharing of protons between charged atoms.
