How does atomic radius change from top to bottom in a group in the periodic table?

The atomic radius increases as you would go down a particular group on the periodic table of elements. This is because along with a greater number of protons, there would also be electrons as well, and thus the need of electron shells surrounding the atom would also be required, to compensate for the more electrons, as according to the bohr model, each shell contains 8 electrons in its electron shell. Thus the distance from the nucleus to the outermost shell increases, the atomic radius.

Answer: Atomic radii increases from top to bottom in a group.

Explanation:

Atomic radius of an atom is defined as the total distance from the nucleus to the outermost orbital of electron.

As moving from top to bottom, there is an addition of shell around the nucleus and the outermost orbital gets far away from the nucleus and hence, the distance between the nucleus and outermost orbital increases.

This in turn increases the atomic radii of the element from moving top to bottom in a group.

What is the mass percent of oxygen (0) in SO2?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

D. (16.0 g + 16.0 g) × 100% / (32.1 g + 16.0 g + 16.0 g) = 49.9%

Explanation:

Step 1: Detemine the mass of O in SO₂

There are 2 atoms of O in 1 molecule of SO₂. Then,

m(O) = 2 × 16.0 g = 16.0 g + 16.0 g = 32.0 g

Step 2: Determine the mass of SO₂

m(SO₂) = 1 × mS + 2 × mO = 1 × 32.1 g + 2 × 16.0 g = 32.1 g + 16.0 g + 16.0 g = 64.1 g

Step 3: Detemine the mass percent of oxygen in SO₂

We will use the following expression.

m(O)/m(SO₂) × 100%

(16.0 g + 16.0 g) × 100% / (32.1 g + 16.0 g + 16.0 g) = 49.9%

In your second paragraph, describe properties of sound waves. Then make a claim about how loud an explosion in space should be.
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Here are five important characteristics: wavelength, amplitude, frequency, time period, and velocity. The wavelength of a sound wave can tell the distance that wave travels before it repeats itself. The wavelength itself is a longitudinal wave that show compression and rarefactions of sound waves.
