c. remains the same
The atomic number will only increase if there is an increase in protons.
The average atomic mass (or amu) will increase if the number of neutrons increase.
 If an element's mass is greater or less than the average atomic mass, it is known as an isotope.

Since the atomic number of an element consists of neutrons and also electrons, we can conclude that since the number of neutrons are increasing, the atomic number will also increase. That is called an isotope (when the number of neutrons differ)

Final answer:- b. Increases

What are atoms?

Answer:

The smallest particle of a chemical element can be defined as an atom.

Explanation:

The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom's identity, and the number of electrons determines its electrical charge.

a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom is known as valence electrons.

An atom's reactivity is its tendency to lose or gain electrons. ... This is because they have one outer electron and losing it gives them the stability of a outer electron shell as the next level... The reactivities of elements can be predicted by periodic trends.

Of the following, ________ should have the highest critical temperature. Of the following, ________ should have the highest crit
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

H2

Explanation:

Critical temperature is the temperature above which gas cannot be liquefied, regardless of the pressure applied.

Critical temperature directly depends on the force of attraction between atoms, it means stronger the force of higher will be the critical temperature. So, from the given options H2 should have the highest critical temperature because of high attractive forces due to H bonding.

Hence, the correct option is H2.
