The crust of the Earth is thickest beneath the continents.
Gravitational force -an attractive force that exists between all objects with mass; an object with mass attracts another object with mass; the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.
The correct answer is ionic radii increase.
The ionic radii decrease as one move across the periodic table, that is, from left to right, while the ionic radius increases as one move from top to bottom on the periodic table. As one moves down a group in the periodic table, the supplementary layers of electrons are being added that usually results in the increase of the ionic radius as one moves down the periodic table.
To determine the expected pH of the resulting solution of the following substances, create a balanced chemical equation of their ionization in water:
HI
HI + H2O ---> H+ + I-
It completely dissociates into H+ and I-. Due to the presence of the Hydronium Ion, the solution is acidic.
KBr
KBr + H2O ----> HBr + KOH
The salt KBr is formed by a strong base and a weak acid, therefore, the solution it forms with water is basic.
LiOH
LiOH + H2O ----> Li+ + OH-
It dissociates completely in water, turns into Li+ and OH-. Due to the presence of Hydroxide Ion, the solution becomes basic.
