Answer:
The elements become less reactive.
Explanation:
As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction and reactivity increases because of greater electron affinity.
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased. The electron affinity decreases because of shielding effect and thus atom become less reactive.
Answer:
Heat transfer during melting of ice plays greater role in cooling of liquid water.
Explanation:
Temperature of ice = -10 °c
Temperature of water = 0 °c
When ice cube is dipped in to the water.the heat transfer
Q = m c ΔT
⇒ Q = 1 × 2.01 × 10
⇒ Q = 20.1 KJ
Heat transfer during melting of ice 
= latent heat of ice
Latent heat of ice = 334 KJ
⇒ = 334 KJ
Heat transfer during melting of ice is greater value than heat transfer during warming of ice from -10°C to 0°C.
Thus heat transfer during melting of ice plays greater role in cooling of liquid water.
