2. F is non-metal, because it has seven electrons (more that 3)
3.It <span>fills its shell by gaining one electron, because it is easier to gain 1 e⁻ than to loose 7 e⁻.
4. It </span><span>becomes a negatively charged ion, because atom of F is neutral, it has "0" charge, and it takes one negatively charged electron(-1). (0 +(-1)= -1)</span>
Answer:
Strontium (St)
Explanation:
The atom that will have a larger radius than zinc is strontium, Sr.
Atomic radius is defined as the half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.
- Across the period atomic radii decreases progressively due to the increase in nuclear charge.
- Down a group atomic radii increase progressively due to the successive shells of electrons being added.
- Since strontium satisfies the criteria, it has the larger atomic radius.
I guess you are asking what world should go at the beginning of the sentence. If I am right, it is energy.
The correct answer is meiosis. Meiosis is a process where a cell divides into two where these cells contain half of the genetic information from the original cell. Meiosis produces daughter cells containing 50% information from the mother and 50% from the father.
