An atom of which element has the largest atomic radius?

Chemistry

Answer:

Cesium

Explanation:

As you go down a Group in the Periodic Table from top to bottom, the number of energy levels or electron shells increases so the atomic radius of the elements increases.

In general, the atomic radius of elements decreases as you go across a Period from left to right.

This means, we would expect that the last element in group 1 to have the largest atomic radius. This is Francium. But the atom with the largest atomic radius is referred to as Cesium.

Why aren't francium atoms the biggest? The usual periodic trend for atomic size places larger atoms at the left of a row and towards the bottom of a column on the periodic table. It's no surprise that cesium is large. But shouldn't francium, in the next period with an even larger valence shell, be even larger?

The answer is "possibly, but we just don't know yet." Francium isn't easy to study. It's the least stable of the first 103 elements; the most stable Fr isotope has a half-life of just 22 minutes The distance between atoms in metallic francium has not yet been measured.

The element which has the largest known atomic radius is Cesium.

In the laboratory, a student dilutes 18. 9 ml of a 10. 0 m perchloric acid solution to a total volume of 250. 0 ml. what is the
Sever21 [200]

The concentration of diluted solution is 0.756M.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of stock solution (V1) = 18.9 mL

Molarity of stock solution (M1) = 10 M

Volume of diluted solution (V2) = 250 mL

Molarity of diluted solution (M2) =?

We can obtain the molarity of the diluted solution by using the dilution formula as shown follow:

M1V1 = M2V2

10 × 18.9 = M2 ×250

189 = M2 × 250

Divide both side by 100

M2 = 189 / 250

M2 = 0.756 M

Therefore, the molarity of the diluted solution is 0.756 M.

Thus the concluded that concentration of the dilute acid is 0.756 M.

Orlov [11]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Dispensing chemical from large stock bottles into smaller container makes sure that students only takes the quantity they need which reduces wastage. Also in situation where the students did not finish the reagent or chemical it is easier for student to pour back into smaller bottle than the entire reagent bottle which can contaminate the whole solution. Small bottles prevent or reduces the risk of spillage because it is easier to handle and pour.
