Answer:

As you move across a period the electrons are being added to the same shell. But, protons are being added as well. This makes the nucleus more positively charged and, increasing protons has a greater effect than electrons. So, there is a greater nuclear attraction and, because the electrons are being added to the same shell that shell gets pulled in more. This causes a decrease in atomic radius.

Which of the following statements best compares the pH value of H3PO4 and HCl?
wel

Answer:

Option B. Both have a pH less than 7, but H3PO4 has a lower pH than HCl

Explanation:

Those are acid, so the pH would be < 7.

H₃PO₄ is a weak acid with 3 dissociations

HCl is a strong acid.

pH depends on [H]⁺

H₃PO₄  →  3H⁺  +  PO₄⁻³

HCl →  H⁺  +  Cl⁻

If both acid, have the same concentration, [H⁺]H₃PO₄ > [H⁺]HCl, that's why the pH from the phosphoric will be lower.
