Among the choices given, the correct answer is the first option. Substance X most likely is a crystal, and substance Y most likely is a liquid. Substance X having a fixed volume describes a crystal because crystals occupy a certain volume. Substance Y is a liquid because liquids can still be compressed further in order to attain a more packed <span>structure.</span>
The radius of the cation is much smaller than the corresponding neutral atom.(b) The radius of an anion is much larger than the corresponding neutral atom.Explanation:The size of the atom or ion is inversely proportional to the nuclear charge experienced by the electrons.(a)The size of the cation is smaller than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. This is because after removal of an electron from the highest principle energy level the nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons increases resulting in the decrease in size.(b)The size of an anion is larger than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. In an anion, an extra electron is added to the highest principle energy level but the effective nuclear charge pulling the electrons towards the nucleus is still same. The net effective nuclear charge experienced by the electrons present in the outermost shell decrease. Moreover, due to the added electron, the repulsion between the electrons also increases resulting in the increase in size
Make since? i hope this helps
Don’t worry about it, let me do your homework!
Born February 27, 1869, Alice Hamilton was an American physician, research scientist, and author who is best known as a leading expert in the field of occupational health and a pioneer in the field of industrial toxicology. She was also the first woman appointed to the faculty of Harvard University.
According to Avogadro constant 1 mole = 6.02 x 10^23 what about 9.25 x10 ^21
that is 1 mole x ( 9.25 x10 ^21) / (6.02 x10^23) = 0.0154 moles
