Horizontal rows are called periods. As you travel downwards, the period is changing. (Oxygen in period 2, sulfur in period 3, and selenium in period 4)

<u>Answer: </u>The size of the element is changing.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxygen, sulfur and selenium are the elements which belong to Group 16 and periods 2, 3 and 4 respectively.

Atomic size of an element is defined as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost shell.

In a periodic table, the size of an element decreases as we move across a period and increases as we move down the group.

Down the group, new shell is getting added around the nucleus and electron is getting added in the new shell. Hence, the distance of the outermost shell from nucleus increases.

Therefore, the size of the element is changing.

Velocity is the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph.<br>O<br>A. True<br>False​
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The slope of a velocity-time graph gives acceleration. Acceleration can be defined as the change in velocity with time.

A slope denotes the gradient of line. It takes into consideration the changes on both y and x axis. The ratio of the changes gives the slope.

On a velocity-time graph, the y-axis is the velocity and the x-axis is time. The change in velocity with time gives acceleration.

The slope of an acceleration

-time graph is not velocity.
