Trends in atomic radius of Period 3 elements

Chemistry
1 answer:
serious [3.7K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Here's what I find  

Explanation:

A. Period or Group?

Na Mg Al Si

These elements are in Period 3.

B. Trend in atomic radius

\begin{array}{ccc}\textbf{Atom} &\textbf{At. No.} &\textbf{r/nm }\\\text{Na} & 11& 0.19 \\\text{Mg} & 12 & 0.14 \\\text{Al} & 13 & 0.12 \\\text{Si} & 14 & 0.11 \\\end{array}

The graph below shows that the atomic radius decreases as the atomic number increases, that is, as you go from left to right across the Period.

C. Explanation

As you go from left to right across a Period, you are adding electrons to the n = 3 shell. The electrons repel each other, so the atoms tend to increase in size.

However, you are also adding protons to the nucleus, so the attraction between the protons and the electrons increases. Each added electron can shield only about 0.3 of a proton's charge, so the nuclear attraction wins out and the atomic radius decreases.

Mademuasel [1]

The students have conducted an experiment to check their hypothesis on the thermal conductivity of two metals; Aluminum and steel. The experimental observations have been noted, and the next step based on the scientific procedure is to analyze the data.

Analysis of data suggests that; since the length of wax after 10 min is lower in Al than steel, aluminum is a better thermal conductor.

Ans B) Analyze the data

Reaction is
-Dominant- [34]
According  to the task, you  are proveded with patial pressure of CO2 and graphite, and here is complete solution for the task :
At first you have to find n1 =moles of CO2 and n2 which are moles of C 
<span>The you go :
</span>CO2(g) + C(s) \ \textless \ =\ \textgreater \  2CO(g)

n1 n2 0
-x -x +2x
n1-x n2-x 2x Kp=P^2 (CO)/Pco2
After that you have to use the formula PV=nRT
 Kp=(2x)^2/n1-x
Then you have to solve x, and for that you have to use <span>RT/V
And to find total values:</span>P(total)=n(total)*R*T/V
I am absolutely sure that this would be helpful for you.
