Answer:
Ca
2+
<K + <Ar<Cl − <S 2−
Explanation:
Ar,K +
,Cl −
,S 2−
,Ca 2+
have the same number of electrons. Their radii would be different because of their different nuclear charges. The cation with the greater positive charge will have a smaller radius because of the greater attraction of the electrons to the nucleus. Anion with the greater negative charge will have the larger radius. In this case, the net repulsion of the electrons will outweigh the nuclear charge and the ion will expand in size. Hence the correct order will be Ca
2+ <K + <Ar<Cl − <S 2−
They may break bonds,form new compounds, new ions etc...
The correct answer is A
its not D because a low pH is a acid
its not C because a base releases OH- ions
its not B because it donates and releases OH- ions
hope this helps
2n² rule:
This rule is used to determine number of electrons in particular shell.
n=1 means K shell
n=2 means L shell
n=3 means M shell
n=4means N shell
The first K shell can hold upto 2 electrons, L shell can hold up to 8, third M shell can hold up to 18and the fourth N shell can hold upto 32 electrons. This rule of arrangement of electrons according to the shell is known 2n2 rule where n means number of shell.
For example: There is one proton in the nucleus of hydrogen atom, which moves in K shell path. It has no neutron.
