Answer:
            Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.

Explanation:
                   As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.

Elements and their atomic radius are as follow,

Aluminium           0.130 nm

Silicon                  0.118 nm

Phosphorus         <span>0.110 nm</span></span></span>

An iron bar of mass 841 g cools from 84°C to 7°C. Calculate the heat released (in kilojoules) by the metal.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

28.75211 kj

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron bar = 841 g

Initial temperature = 84°C

Final temperature = 7°C

Heat released = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

specific heat capacity of iron is 0.444 j/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 7°C - 84°C

ΔT = -77°C

By putting values,

Q = 841 g × 0.444 j/g.°C × -77°C

Q = 28752.11 j

In Kj:

28752.11 j × 1 kJ / 1000 J

28.75211 kj
