Chemistry

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.

Predict the energy trend as a substance changes from a solid to liquid to gas on this graph.
Vladimir [108]
Answer:
            Option-A (<span> It would increase from bottom left to top right) is the correct answer.

Explanation:
                   As we know converting solids into liquids and converting liquids into gases require energy. This energy provided increases the energy of the state and its particles start moving with higher velocities. Therefore, the energy of solids will be lower than liquids and gases respectively. While, liquids have greater energy than solids but less energy than gases. And, gases are the most energetic than solids and liquids.</span>

What happens to the speed of motion of the particles of a gas when a certain volume of the gas is heated at constant pressure? E
Vitek1552 [10]
As the gas is heated, the particles will begin to move faster. Likewise if you start to cool a gas, the particles will move slower. Because the gas remains at a constant pressure and volume, the particles cannot spread out so they simply move around the container even faster.

Hope this helps :)
