A carbon atom can absorb radiation of various wavelengths with resulting changes in its electron configuration. Write orbital diagrams for the electron configuration of carbon that results from absorption of the three longest wavelengths of radiation it can absorb.

i can ! i just need to know what the paragraph is! : p

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.

if it's not useful, feel free to report for mistake in answer.
