Answer:

A. K

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the trends in the Periodic Table:

  • Atomic radii <em>decrease</em> from left to right across a Period.
  • Atomic radii <em>increase</em> from top to bottom in a Group.
  • Ionic radii of metal cations are <em>smaller</em> than those of their atoms.

Thus, the largest atoms are in the lower left corner of the Periodic Table.

The diagram below shows that K is closest to the lower left, so it is the largest atom. It is also larger than any of the cations.

The Earth's moon is unusually large. Two popular theories of the moon's origin include the "sister world" hypothesis, which stat
Verizon [17]

Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.

Explanation:

Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.

In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.

However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.
