Answer: d . Contradictory observations are found.

Explanation:

A scientific theory can be define as the proposed explanation of cause of a natural phenomena or event. It is based upon evidences obtain from direct observations and experimental procedures.

A change in the concept of the scientific theory only occurs when there exists a contradictory idea or evidence by the other experimenters which explain the facts which are required to discard the theories.

Which of the following ions has the smallest ionic radius?
maria [59]

Answer:

The C4+ ion has the smallest ionic radius

Explanation:

In the periodic table, the size of an atom increases on going downwards in a group.

On the other hand, in a period, size decreases on going from left to right

The size of cation is smaller than its parent atom.

Lithium-ion (Li+) is the most left so it has the biggest radius.

More to the right ( this means a smaller ionic radius) , we have Berylium-ion (Be2+).

More to the right, so smaller than Be2+, we have B3+

The ion the most to the right, we have C4+

The C4+ ion has the smallest ionic radius

Li+ > Be2+ > Be3+ > C4+
