What is responsible for the larger size of an anion in comparison with the atom from which it is form?

Chemistry
1 answer:
GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

electron-electron repulsion

Explanation:

When electrons add into valence shell of neutral elements, the element assumes a negative oxidation state. With this, the number of electrons having (-) charges will be larger than the number of protons having positive (+) charges. As a result, the extra electrons repel one another (i.e., like charges repel) and a larger radius is the result.  

In contrast, when cations are formed, electrons are removed from the valence level (oxidation) producing an element having a greater number of protons than electrons. The larger number of protons will function to attract the electron cloud with a greater force that results in a contraction of atomic radius and a smaller spherical volume than the neutral unionized element.    

To visualize, see attached chart that shows atomic and ionic radii before and after ionization of the elements.

How did the change of stress (adding or removing reactants or products) cause a shift in the equilibrium system of your solution
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

One way is to add or remove a product or a reactant in a chemical reaction at equilibrium. When additional reactant is added, the equilibrium shifts to reduce this stress: it makes more product. When additional product is added, the equilibrium shifts to reactants to reduce the stress. :)

According to de Broglie, which of these objects does not have a wavelength?
polet [3.4K]

Answer: Option D is correct.

Explanation: Equation given by de Broglie is:

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}

where, \lambda = wavelength of the particle

h = Planck's constant

m = mass of the particle

v = velocity of the particle

In option A, football will have some mass and is moving with a velocity of 25 m/s, hence it will have some wavelength.

In Option B, unladen swallow also have some mass and is moving with a velocity of 38 km/hr, hence it will also have some wavelength.

In Option C, a person has some mass and is running with a velocity of 7 m/hr, hence it will also have some wavelength.

As, the momentum of these particles are large, therefore the wavelength will be of small magnitude and hence, is not observable.

From the above, it is clearly visible that all the options are having some wavelength, so option D is correct.
