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>

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Bacterial genes contain no introns, so the cells, which lack splicing machinery, cannot express eukaryotic genes containing introns and exons. Mature eukaryotic mRNA, which has already been spliced, contains only exons, which, after they have been converted back to DNA, can be transcribed and translated by the bacteria.

A hydrogen-like ion is an ion containing only one electron. The energy of the electron in a hydrogen-like ion is given by:
kupik [55]

hydrogen-like ion is an ion containing only one electron. The energy of the electron in a hydrogen-like ion is given by:

En = −(2.18 × 10^−18J) Z^2 ( 1/n^2 )

where n is the principal quantum number and Z is the atomic number of the element. Plasma is a state of matter consisting of positive gaseous ions and electrons. In the plasma state, a mercury atom could be stripped of its 80 electrons and therefore could exist as Hg80+. Use the equation above to calculate the energy required for the last ionization step.hydrogen-like ion is an ion containing only one electron.

What effect does a catalyst have on a system in equilibrium?
irina1246 [14]

A catalyst is when a chemical reaction occurs faster than normal.

The system is unaffected during a catalyst because both forward and reverse reactions are affected, meaning that quilibrium will occur faster nothing will change.


Hope it helped,
