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.

Value of an extensive property
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The value of an intensive property may vary with time and its position within the system. Examples of intensive properties include temperature, velocity, mass density, specific volume, and specific energy. An extensive property does not have a value at a point, and its value depends on the extent or size of the system.

A student wants to measure the entropy of ice. What should the student do?
Helen [10]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as the degree of randomness. This means that more is the number of collisions taking place between atoms of a substance more will be the randomness.

Therefore, more will be the entropy of substance. We cannot measure the entropy but we can measure the change in entropy of a substance.

A thermometer is a glass tube that contains a liquid column generally mercury, and it is usually used to measure the temperature of human body.

A calorimeter is a device or apparatus that is used in a chemical reaction to measure the amount of heat involved.

Therefore, we can conclude that the student can't measure entropy directly, only an entropy change.

Can someone Summarize how the suns gravity affects the planets please.
egoroff_w [7]

The sun's gravity pulls the planet toward the sun, which changes the straight line of direction into a curve. This keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun. Because of the sun's gravitational pull, all the planets in our solar system orbit around it.

Answer:

Sand

Explanation:

with salt distillation will work, heat the solution and collect the water in a seperate beaker

With sugar you do the same, boil away the water and collect the water vapour, you'll be left with sugar in the original container and water if you collected it

Use a fraction of column and heat the solution, the alcohol will be seperated out

Sand is the only one that uses mechanical filtration
