Explanation:
Whether you choose to use van der Waals radii or metallic radii as a measure of the atomic radius, for metals the ionic radius is smaller than either, so the problem doesn't exist to the same extent. It is true that the ionic radius of a metal is less than its atomic radius (however vague you are about defining this).
When the electron absorbs a photon it goes from a lower energy state to a higher one.
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution
mass fo KCl in the solution is - 5.0 g
number of moles of KCl - 5.0 g/ 74.5 g/mol = 0.067 mol
number of moles of KCl in 100 mL - 0.067 mol
therefore number of KCl moles in 1 L - 0.067 / 100 mL x 1000 mL = 0.67 M
molarity of KCl is 0.67 M
Ocean acidification is occurring because excess carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is being absorbed at the surface of the ocean at an increasing rate. This excess CO2 results in more hydrogen ions, which increases the acidity of the ocean.
