As you go down a family or group on the periodic table *

Chemistry
1 answer:
pickupchik [31]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The elements become less reactive.

Explanation:

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 and reactivity increases because of greater electron affinity.

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. The electron affinity decreases because of shielding effect and thus atom become less reactive.

Hydrogen boils at 20k. what is the boiling point of hydrogen on the celsius scale
Dimas [21]

Celsius scale is related to kelvin scale by the following equation,

⁰C = K-273

°C = K-273  

So as here temperature is given in kelvin, so it can be converted into celsius as follows:

So 20 K = 20K-273 °C  

= -253 °C .

So, the 20 K temperature equals to -253 °C.

So , -253 °C is equals to  20 K or 20 K temperature equals to -253 °C.

What type of bonding occurs in a sample of pure chromium, cr? in other words, how is one chromium atom held to another chromium
spayn [35]

Chromium is a metal in nature. So when one chromium is bonded to another chromium, there is a weak intermolecular forces which helds them together which we call as “metallic bonding”.

Metallic bonding is the intermolecular force of attraction which exist between valence electrons and the metal atoms. It is considered as the sharing of various detached electrons between many positive ions, whereby the electrons serve as a "glue" which gives the substance a definite structure.
