Answer:
<u>an element with a large number of valence electrons and a large atomic radius</u>
Explanation:
Electronegativity means a tedency when an atom attracts bonding electrons in a covalent bond situation.
» If an atom has many valency electrons [ <em>empty</em><em> </em><em>orbitals</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>o</em><em>u</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>m</em><em>o</em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em>l</em><em>l</em><em> </em>], it has difficulty in attracting electrons hence electronegativity low.
» If an atom is large, its nuclear attraction force of incoming electrons is low hence low electronegativity.
Answer:
The answer is tiny organisms known as cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. These microbes conduct photosynthesis: using sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, yes, oxygen.

The daughter isotope : Radon-222 (Rn-222).
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Radium (Ra-226) undergoes an alpha decay
Required
The daughter nuclide
Solution
Radioactivity is the process of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes by decay, by emitting certain particles,
- alpha α particles ₂He⁴
- beta β ₋₁e⁰ particles
- gamma particles ₀γ⁰
- positron particles ₁e⁰
- neutron ₀n¹
The decay reaction uses the principle: the sum of the atomic number and mass number before and after decay are the same
Radium (Ra-226) : ₈₈²²⁶Ra
Alpha particles : ₂⁴He
So Radon-226 emits alpha α particles ₂He⁴ , so the atomic number decreases by 2, mass number decreases by 4
The reaction :
₈₈²²⁶Ra ⇒ ₂⁴He + ₈₆²²²Rn
Temperature, salinity, and density are the group of factors are most important in determining the composition of ocean water.
a.)temperature, salinity, and density
<u>Explanation:</u>
The three fundamental factors that help in determining the composition of ocean water are temperature, salinity, and density. Temperature, saltiness, salinity, and density influence the thickness of seawater.
Enormous water masses of various densities are significant in the layering of the sea water (increasingly thick water sinks). As temperature builds water turns out to be less thick. As saltiness builds water gets denser. The temperature helps in deciding the pace of vanishing of the ocean.
