Answer : The correct answer is Option D.
Explanation:
Ores are defined as natural occurring substance from which metals and another mineral are extracted.
Bauxite is primary ore of an aluminium metal. it doesn't have definite or specific chemical composition. This is because it contains mixture of hydrous aluminum oxide, aluminum hydroxides, insoluble materials like hematite, quartz ,geothite ,magnetite etc.
From the given options the most appropriate statement which is correct about the bauxite is 'It does not have a definite chemical composition'.
Hence, the correct option Is (D).
Answer:
Iodine have higher atomic size than tellurium because of the presence of more number of protons and lower atomic mass than tellurium because of the presence of lower number of neutrons.
Explanation:
Atomic number of an element is the number of the protons present in the element.
Atomic mass is the sum of a protons and the neutrons which are present in the nucleus of the atom.
Iodine has higher atomic number than tellurium because it has more number of protons than the tellurium.
On the other hand, iodine has lower atomic mass than tellurium because it has less number of neutrons in its core.
Development of carbonation
By convention, the symbol Z is assigned to the number of protons in the nucleus, or simply, the atomic number of an element. This is actually used when you want to determine the effective nuclear charge of a specific electron of an element. The equation is:
Z* = Z - S
where
Z* is the effective nuclear charge
Z is the atomic number
S is the number of electrons between the electron in question and the nucleus
There is due to a phenomenon called the shielding effect. This effect states that the farther the electron is from the nucleus, the lesser is its pull of force to the nucleus. That is the reason why the valence electrons (outermost electrons) are the ones always involved in chemicals reactions. Because they are not that strongly bonded to the nucleus of an atom.
