A neutral atom of which of the four element has the smallest radius

Answer:
Element 1

Explanation:
The ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove electrons from the atoms.
We know that the nucleus of the atom attracts the electrons, thus, bound these electrons to the atom.
This means that as the radius decreases, the force of attraction between the nucleus and the electron will increase, therefore, the energy required to remove the electron would increase (and vice-versa).

Based on the above, the atom with the smallest radius would be the atom with the largest first ionization energy.

Hope this help :)

I would probably say that element 1 has the lowest atomic radius since it has the highest 1st ionization energy.

What do protons determine about an element

Daniel [21]

The number of protons in an atoms determines the atoms identity. Electrons determine the electrical charge.

Not very much because half the time the water is purified but just normal water in my area probably has serious levels of scarcity.

For the reaction of hydrogen with iodine

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

$r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, considering the given chemical reaction:

$H_2(g) + I_2(g) \rightarrow 2HI(g)$

Thus, by applying the law of rate proportions, we can write:

$\frac{1}{-1} r_{H_2} = \frac{1}{-1}r_{i_2} = \frac{1}{2} r_{HI}$

Whereas the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants are negative due their disappearance and that of the product is positive due to its appearance. In such a way, when we relate the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas to the rate of formation of hydrogen iodide, we obtain:

$r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}$

Best regards!
