Answer:
Halogens
Explanation:
From the given choices, the halogens will have the smallest radius within the same period.
The size of an atom is estimated by the atomic radius. This is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state.
- Across a period in the periodic table, atomic radii decrease progressively from left to right.
- Down a group from top to bottom, atomic radii increase progressively due to the addition of successive shells.
Since halogen is the right most group from the choices given, it will have the smallest radius.
Answer:
An acid dissociation constant, K a, (also known as acidity constant, or acid-ionization constant) is a quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution. It is the equilibrium constant for a chemical reaction ↽ − − ⇀ − + + known as dissociation in the context of acid–base reactions.
Explanation:
Hello!
The fission of an atom that has a large atomic number can be induced by bombarding the atom with neutrons.
Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy nucleus divides into two or more lighter nuclei. This reaction is induced by the bombarding of neutrons into the nucleus, making it unstable (like throwing an orange to a perfectly arranged orange pyramid at the supermarket). The unstable nucleus breaks down into lighter elements, releasing more neutrons which contribute to the chain reaction.
Have a nice day!
