2. Why would a calcium (Ca) atom be larger than a bromine (Br) atom even

Chemistry
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]3 years ago
3 0

Within a period, the atom size decreases with increasing group number (from left to right), since the nuclear charge and the number of external electrons increase within the period, but the number of shells does not. The electrons are more strongly attracted to the nucleus and are therefore closer to the nucleus.

Which statements describe an element? Check all that apply.
Molodets [167]

Answer:

<em>Hello, Your answer will be B,C,E, And F.</em>

Why must each atom of an element always have the same number of protons?
Yuliya22 [10]
Atoms do not always contain the same number of electrons and protons, although this state is common. When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. In contrast, when an atom loses or gains an electron (or the rarer case of losing or gaining a proton, which requires a nuclear reaction), the total charges add up to something other than zero.

Pressure is this sample?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

P = 164 Atm

Explanation:

PV = nRT => P = nRT/V

n = 10.0 moles

R = 0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K

T = 27.0°C = 300 K

V = 1.50 Liters

P = (10.0 mol)(0.08206 L·Atm/mol·K )(300 K)/(1.50 Liters) = 164.12 Atm ≅ 164 Atm (3 sig. figs.)
