Answer: The energy of the 4-s subshell is lower than the energy of 3-d subshell.
Explanation:
During the filling of electrons in subshells, the lower energy levels are filled before the higher energy levels. Also known as Aufbau principle.
Energy of the sublevel = (n + l)
where : n = Principal quantum number
l = Azimuthal quantum number(s=0,p=1,d=2,f=3)
Energy of 4-s subshell= (4+0) = 4
Energy of 3-d subshell=(3+2) = 5
Energy of 4-s subshell is lower than the energy of 3-d subshell, that is why 4s orbital is filled before the 3-d subshell.

Yes, the atomic radius increases as you move down a group of elements.
this is true
going down leads to valence electrons that are further away from nucleus -> less electrostatic attraction -> less pull towards nuc. -> greater radius/volume taken
Answer:
Energy levels
Explanation:
Elements in one row of the periodic table have the same energy levels. A row on the periodic table is the horizontal arrangement of elements. These rows are called periods.
There are 7 periods on the periodic table.
- Each elements on a period begins with an atom having one valence electrons and then ending with completely filled orbitals.
- Elements in the same period are known to have the same electronic shells which is the energy level.
- The principal quantum number of their electrons is the same.
