In general terms, exothermic reactions release energy, so the energy goes from the system to the surroundings.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The interior planet has fascinated a lot of people so a lot of theories have been made about what's in there.
<span>There are few main factors affecting the atomic radii, the outermost electrons and the protons in the nucleus and also the shielding of the internal electrons. I would speculate that the difference in radii is given by the electron clouds since the electrons difference in these two elements is in the d orbital and both has at least 1 electron in the 4s (this 4s electron is the outermost electron in all the transition metals of this period). The atomic radio will be mostly dependent of these 4s electrons than in the d electrons. Besides that, you can see that increasing the atomic number will increase the number of protons in the nucleus decreasing the ratio of the atoms along a period. The Cu is an exception and will accommodate one of the 4s electrons in the p orbital.

This also correlates with the idea that if these two atoms have similar volume and one has more mass (more protons; density is the relationship between m/V), then a bigger mass for a similar volume will result in a bigger density.</span>
