Yet, I regularly brought home B’s and low A’s, at best, on my report card. I had barely challenged myself in middle school, if at all.

The S subshell occupies groups 1 and 2, the D subshell is all of the transition metals, and the P subshell occupies groups 13-18. The D subshell is irregular in that it will always have a three in front of it, but the numbers in front of the other subshells will change based on what shell they are in. The three is there…

I know you are busy and I don't want to rush you at all, but I am eager to resume our discussion with their office when you are ready.

In William Blake’s poetical verses explaining the two contrary states of human existence, he observes the world with an extensive view from a state of “innocence and of an imagination unspoiled by stains of worldliness” (Keynes 12), and from a state of “indignation and pity for the sufferings of mankind as he saw them in the streets of London (Keynes 12).
