The radius of an atom is dependent upon which 2 things? (Two answers)

Chemistry
1 answer:
matrenka [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct options are;

C. The magnitude of attraction from its nucleus

D. The distance between the electrons and its nucleus

Explanation:

The atomic radius reduces, within a given period, as we move from left to right, the number of protons increases alongside the number of electrons and the while the quantum shell to which the extra electrons are added to is the same. Therefore, the radius of the atom is dependent on the magnitude of the attraction from the nucleus

Similarly, as we progress to the next period, with an extra quantum shell, the atomic radius is seen to increase.

Therefore, the atomic radius is determined by the distance between the electrons and its nucleus.

If the atomic weight of nitrogen is 14.01, what is the mass of the nitrogen atoms in one mole of cadmium nitrate, Cd(NOÀ)
Nadya [2.5K]
The answer is 28.02.

The chemical formula for cadmium nitrate is Cd(NO₃)₂.

There are in total 2 nitrogen atoms in Cd(NO₃)₂. If <span>the atomic weight of nitrogen is 14.01</span>, the mass <span>of two nitrogen atoms in one mole of cadmium nitrate is 28.02:
2 </span>· 14.01 = 28.02

For elements in the third row of the periodic table and beyond, the octet rule is often not obeyed. a friend of yours says this
Rom4ik [11]

The reason that some of the elements of period three and beyond are steady in spite of not sticking to the octet rule is due to the fact of possessing the tendency of forming large size, and a tendency of making more than four bonds. For example, sulfur, it belongs to period 3 and is big enough to hold six fluorine atoms as can be seen in the molecule SF₆, while the second period of an element like nitrogen may not be big to comprise 6 fluorine atoms.  

The existence of unoccupied d orbitals are accessible for bonding for period 3 elements and beyond, the size plays a prime function than the tendency to produce more bonds. Hence, the suggestion of the second friend is correct.
