Atomic radius defines the size of an atom.  

Explanation:

Atomic radius is defined as “one-half the distance between the nuclei of two identical atoms that are bonded together.” If ‘r’ is the atomic radius and ‘d’ the distance in between nuclei of two atoms that are identical and bonded, then r = d/2.

The units used to express atomic radius are picometer, nanometer, and Angstroms.

In the periodic table, the atomic radius of elements decreases with elements across a <em>period</em> (left-right) and increases with elements down a group.

Temka [501]

Answer:

C mechanical potential to chemical to mechanical kinetic

Explanation:

When the cheetah observes it prey, it does not move at all and remains still in one place. This is potential energy.

To chase after its prey or to pounce on it, the cheetah would require energy. This is obtained by its body by performing certain chemical activities that generate energy that help it to move.

When the cheetah finally undergoes this, it has enough energy to finally come out of hiding and chase its prey. This is kinetic energy as while doing so, the cheetah is in motion.

Hope it helps.
