Explanation:
Conduction is a form of heat transfer between one body and another. It usually occurs when a warmer object is in contact with a cooler one. Heat generally flows from a region of high temperature to a place at a lower temperature.
- Conduction is very pronounced in solid bodies.
- The heat transfer causes a net transfer of the average kinetic energy of one body to the other.
- Some examples are: heating of iron by a hotter metallic body, the pot hand getting hotter as cooking continues, cooling of ice by touching it.
Answer:
Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm
Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm
Explanation:
Atomic radii trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
Consider the example of sodium and potassium.
Sodium is present above the potassium with in same group i.e, group one.
The atomic number of sodium is 11 and potassium 19.
So potassium will have larger atomic radius as compared to sodium.
Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm
Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm
Answer:
1947 the United States Army had an excess of metallic sodium left over from World War II and determined that the alkaline waters of Lake Lenore would be a good spot to dump and neutralize the acidic element, which reacts with water with intense explosions.
