<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given elements that is sodium and sulfur are the elements which belong to the same period that is third period.

As, the electrons are added up to the same shell across a period, the number of protons also increase and hence, they attract the electrons more effectively. This means that the effective nuclear charge also increases and the size of the sulfur thus shrink and hence, the size (atomic radius) of sodium is the largest amongst third period.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option B.

Answer:

 (V) 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 5

Explanation:

Electron Affinity can be defined as the energy associated with a neutral atom, when an electron is added to form a negative ion.

1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 5 , is the electronic configuration of Chlorine.

The electron affinity is positive because it is an exorthermic reaction, meaning that, energy was released during the addition of an electron to the atom.

Which equation is balanced? “Hint...count the atoms of each element. Only compare like elements!​
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

2Mg + O2 = 2MgO

Explanation:

Al + 3F2 = AlF3 ..... F has 6 on the left and 3 on the right.

Na + F2 = 2NaF ..... Na has 1 on the left and 2 on the right.

2Al + 3O2 = Al2O3 .... O has 6 on the left and 3 on right.
