The radius of the cation is much smaller than the corresponding neutral atom.(b) The radius of an anion is much larger than the corresponding neutral atom.Explanation:The size of the atom or ion is inversely proportional to the nuclear charge experienced by the electrons.(a)The size of the cation is smaller than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. This is because after removal of an electron from the highest principle energy level the nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons increases resulting in the decrease in size.(b)The size of an anion is larger than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. In an anion, an extra electron is added to the highest principle energy level but the effective nuclear charge pulling the electrons towards the nucleus is still same. The net effective nuclear charge experienced by the electrons present in the outermost shell decrease. Moreover, due to the added electron, the repulsion between the electrons also increases resulting in the increase in size
Make since? i hope this helps
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
One tank of goldfish is feed the normal amount which is once a day, a second tank is fed twice a day, and a third tank is fed four times a day during a 6 week study. The fishes' body fat is recorded daily.
Independent Variable-
Dependent Variable-
Constants
Control Group-
Answer:
A) The amount of food the gold fish receives
B) Body fat of the gold fish
C) -Type of fish used in the study (gold fish)
Time period within which the fishes were fed (Six week period)
Shape and size of tank
D) group of gold fish fed the normal amount
Explanation:
The purpose of the study is to determined the impact of amount of feed on the body fat of gold fish. Hence, the amount of feed is the independent variable while the body fat of the feed is the dependent variable.
The control group receives the normal amount of feed (once a day). The fishes are all gold fish, fed within a six week period. All the tanks were of the same shape and size. These are the constants in the study.
K because parent atoms are always larger than their cations(positively charged atoms)
I don’t really know but I’ll get someone to help u
Is to find the problem to the investigation
