Answer:

Mg (atomic number 12)

K (atomic number 19)

Explanation:

The size of an atom is estimated in terms of its atomic radius.

The atomic radius is taken as half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance (d) between two nuclei in the solid - state of metals.

  • Across a period, atomic radii decrease progressively from left to right.
  • This is due to the progressive increase in the nuclear charge without increase in the number of electronic shells.
  • Down a group, atomic radii increase progressively due to the successive shells of electrons being added which have been compensated for by the increase in nuclear charge.

Cl is further right of Mg in the third period

K is below Na in the first group

1. Millions of gallons of water are wasted by households in America on a yearly basis as a result of wastage of water in the laundry rooms. There are many ways by which water can be conserved in the laundry room, these include:
1. Using a high efficiency washing machine.
2. Choosing the right load sizes and cycles when using washing machines.
3. Wearing clothes more than once before washing them.
4. Collection of grey and rain water.
5. Treat difficult stains before washing them.

2. Using a high efficiency machine will ensure that water is used efficiently. A high efficiency washing machine uses much less water and save about 6,000 gallons of water for an average family on a yearly basis according to Environmental Protection Agency. 
Grey water refers to water that have used once. Water that has been used for washing clothes or bathing can be collected again, recycle and use for some household needs such as gardening, flushing of toilet, etc. Water tanks can also be installed to collect rain water which can be used for washing clothes. This will have positive effect on household overall water consumption.

Please tell me if this is Newton's first law, second, or third law of motion. There can be more than one of the same answer very
AfilCa [17]

Answer: Hope This Helps!

Explanation:

1: Newton’s first law of motion can explain how a magician pulls a tablecloth from underneath the dishes. A negligible horizontal force is applied during the process. As per Newton’s first law of motion, the dishes and glasses remain in their state of motion (rest); as a result, they remain undisturbed.

2: Newton's First Law of Motion is defined as "An object at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."In soccer, when the soccer ball is in the soccer field and it is not moving, that means that it is at rest and there is no force acting upon it. When there is a person that is ready to play soccer and wants to kick the ball and play, then the unbalanced force would be the power from the person's foot.

3: Newtons third law can explain, as the cannonball is pushed forwards by the expanding high-pressure gases created by the exploding gunpowder, it pushes back on these gases. The gases push back on the cannon itself, causing it to roll backwards. Alternative answer: the cannon pushes forward on the cannonball. the reaction force is the cannonball pushing backwards on the cannon.
