We have to get the relationship between metallic character and atomic radius.
Metallic character increases with increase in atomic radius and decrease with decrease of atomic radius.
If electrons from outermost shell of an element can be removed easily, that atom can be considered to have more metallic character.
With increase in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electron decreases which facilitates the release of electron.
With decrease in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electrons increases, so electrons are hold tightly to nucleus. Hence, removal of electron from outermost shell becomes difficult making the atom less metallic in nature.
The potential energy ..
1- when a rubber band is stretche and waiting to be released
2- an acorn hanging from a oak tree
3- a pice of celery
Answer:
It is reactive because it has to gain an electron to have a full outermost energy level.
Explanation:
The electron configuration of oxygen is 1s2,2s2 2p4.
Oxygen is in group six in the periodic table so it has six electrons in its valence shell. This means that it needs to gain two electrons to obey the octet rule and have a full outer shell of electrons (eight).
