IE is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. As atomic radius increases, the valence electrons get farther from

the nucleus. How do you think an atom’s size will affect its ability to hold on to its valence electrons? Why?

Answer:

The bigger the atom the lesser the ability of the atom to hold on to its valence electrons.

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be looked at as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost energy level. As an atom gets bigger, the outer shell gets further and further from the positive nucleus. this means that electrons that are in the outer energy level become less held (attracted) by the nucleus because of distance and shielding of the attractive forces by the electrons in the lower energy levels. This means that as an atom becomes bigger, its ability to hold on to its outer electrons lessens.

A 60-watt light bulb has a voltage of 120 bolts applied across it and a current of 0.5 amperes flows through the bulb. What is t
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

240 ohms

Explanation:

From Ohms law we deduce that V=IR and making R the subject of the formula then R=V/I where R is resistance, I is current and V is coltage across. Substituting 120 V for V and 0.5 A for A then

R=120/0.5=240 Ohms

Alternatively, resistance is equal to voltage squared divided by watts hence \frac {120^{2}}{60}=240
