Modern periodic table is arranged on the basis of element's increasing "Atomic numbers"

By Pleistocene ice age is meant the glacial periods that appeared in the Pleistocene. The Pleistocene is the first epoch of the Quaternary. It is an epoch when there was a so called ''ice age'' on the Earth, or rather a glacial period. During this ice age the planet had much lower temperatures on a global scale. The climate was also much drier. Lot of ocean water was frozen in the ice sheets that were stretching deep into the North American and Eurasian continents, which resulted in much lower sea levels that today as well. The places further north than 40 degrees of latitude were almost exclusively covered with ice, so life was almost impossible apart from some coastline places.

Answer:
D. Crystallization
Explanation:
Let's clarify the irrelevant terms first.
- unification: This term has nothing to do with chemistry at all
- lithification: When the problem mentions magma and lava, you might think that this term is related to the process here. However, 'lithification' <em>do </em>have a precise meaning in geology. It refers to the process where sediments collapses into one single rock under pressure, which has nothing to do with the process mentioned here.
Now, for 2 terms that might confuse you: 'solidification' and 'crystallization' these also has precise scientific definition
Solidification is defined the process where substances in <em>liquid</em> phase changes its phase to <em>solid</em>. On first glance, this answer might seems correct, and yes, it is correct for this question. But not the <em>most</em> correct.
The keyword here is
'the internal components will arrange its self in an organized pattern.'
Crystallization is a special case of Solidification where the atoms or molecules of liquid solidify by spontaneously arrange themselves in periodic, ordered, and organized pattern. It might or might not happen during solidification depending on cooling rate, viscosity of liquid, and other factors.
So, Crystallization is the most correct answer here.
The element that has the smallest atomic radius is <u>titanium</u>
<em><u>explanation</u></em>
- Calcium,potassium, scandium and titanium are in period 4 in the periodic table.
- Generally the atomic radius decreases across the period (from the left to the right) . This is because across the period there is increase in nuclear charge which make electrons been strongly attracted to the nuclear.
- Titanium is in atomic number 22 thus it has more nuclear charge that calcium,potassium and scandium therefore titanium has the smallest atomic radius.
