Atom with the largest atomic radius in group 18

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mkey [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Radon

Explanation:

Group eighteen elements are called noble gases. This group includes helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon.

Radon is present at the last of this column.

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

Thus radon has largest atomic radius.

Which of the following is an example of pseudo science
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Astrology

Explanation:

One characteristic of science is that it must be reproducible. Other scientists must be able to repeat the original experiments and get the same result. That's what makes scientific claims reliable.

Astrology contends that the positions and motions of stars and planets can affect people and events on Earth. This has been disproved, so astrology is a pseudoscience .

Biology, chemistry, and physics are sciences.

1) When an atom is an ion, the number of what particle changes?
leva [86]

Answer:

By definition, an ion is an electrically charged particle produced by either removing electrons from a neutral atom to give a positive ion or adding electrons to a neutral atom to give a negative ion. When an ion is formed, the number of protons does not change.

Fluorine is a toxic, reactive gas. which representation (structural formula, electron dot structure, or three-dimensional model)
Hoochie [10]
The representation that would best explain the properties of the gas fluorine would be a <span>electron dot structure. From this structure, you can see how many electrons are available for bonding since the electrons are the ones responsible for interacting with other atoms. </span>
