Answer:

It has fewer electron shells

Explanation:

Cesium is a metal and metals tend to lose their valence electrons to become positively charged cations. Loss of valence electrons in a metal also results in the loss of the total valence shell. Therefore, when cesium loses its valence electron, it also loses the whole outer shell which consequently leads to a decrease in radius.

Therefore, we may conclude that for a fewer electron shells, we would expect to have a smaller radius.

A cork has a mass of 3 grams and a volume of 16 cms calculate the density
REY [17]

hey mate here is ur answer

solution

mass{m}=3 gram

             =3/1000

             

volume{v}=16cm

                =16/100

               

density=m/v

           =3/1000÷16/100

           =3/160

            =0.01875kg/m3

Wich tools are appropriate to determine the densety of an irregular-shaped object ?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The most accurate way to determine an object's volume, especially in the case of an irregularly shaped object, is to immerse it in water and measure the amount of water it displaces. A graduated cylinder large enough to hold both the object and enough water to fully immerse it is the best tool for this job.

What is a chemical property of carbon?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
I'll give you three just in case a couple are ones you aren't quite looking for.

-Carbon has several allotropes, or different forms in which it can exist. A couple of allotropes included are graphite and diamond, which both have very different properties.

-Despite carbon's ability to make 4 bonds and its presence in many compounds, it is highly nonreactive under normal conditions.

-Carbon exists in three main isotopes: ¹²C, ¹³C, and ¹⁴C in which ¹⁴C is radioactive and used in dating carbon-containing samples (known as radiometric dating)

Hope this helps!!
