 The element  that has the smallest  atomic radius is  <u>titanium</u>


          <em><u>explanation</u></em>

  • Calcium,potassium,  scandium and titanium are in  period  4 in the periodic table.
  • Generally  the atomic   radius    decreases  across the period (from the left to the right) .  This is because  across the period  there is increase  in nuclear charge  which  make electrons been strongly attracted to the nuclear.
  • Titanium is in atomic number 22 thus it has  more nuclear  charge  that  calcium,potassium and  scandium therefore  titanium has the  smallest atomic radius.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that in a periodic table, atomic size decreases when we move from left to right.

The given elements potassium, calcium, scandium, and titanium all belongs to  third period.

Therefore, out of these elements potassium is at the extreme left and titanium is towards the right. Thus, we can conclude that titanium is the element which has the smallest atomic radius.

A) How much energy would be required to melt 500 grams of ice at 0°C to water at 0°C?
baherus [9]

Heat required = Q = 40 kcal

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of 500 g ice

Required

Heat required

Solution

The heat to change the phase can be formulated :  

  • Q = m.Lf (melting/freezing)  
  • Q = m.Lv (vaporization/condensation)  

Lf=latent heat of fusion  

Lv=latent heat of vaporization  

Lf for water = 334 kj/kg=6.01 kJ/mol = 80 cal/g

Phase change(ice to water)

Q=  500 g x 80 cal/g

Q = 40 kcal

How does the volume of water change the solubility of sodium chloride in simple words?
kupik [55]

Answer:

When sodium chloride dissolves in water to make a saturated solution there is a 2.5 per cent reduction in volume. ... The solubility of salt does not change much with temperature, so there is little profit in using hot water.
