Which is the largest atomic radius

Chemistry
1 answer:
katrin2010 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

₁₁A

Explanation:

Atomic radius

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons.

This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases.

So in given elements consider A₁₁, B₁₂, C₁₃ ans D₁₇ as sodium, magnesium, aluminium and chlorine. This is the third period and as we move form sodium to chlorine atomic radius decreases. That's why sodium has greater size.

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

Hibernation is _______. A. An example of an abiotic cycle b. Triggered by changes in the weather c. Caused only by biotic factor
natta225 [31]

The correct answer is option b, that is, triggered by changes in the weather.  

Hibernation refers to a state of lower metabolism and inactivity usually witnessed in endotherms. This condition is featured by a slow heart rate, slow breathing, low metabolic rate, and low body temperature. It assists the majority of the endotherms to thrive in the cold seasons. For example, hibernation of a bear in winters. Therefore, weather change can stimulate hibernation.
