The correct answer is Na > K > Rb.  

The order predicted would be ionization energy of sodium is greater than the ionization energy of potassium, which is greater than the ionization energy of rubidium.  

The ionization energy refers to energy, which has to be supplemented to a gaseous atom in order to withdraw an electron and produce a positive ion. The ionization energy decreases in going down a group. The cause of the decline of the ionization energy down a group is that as one moves down a group, the size of the atom increases that signifies that the valence electrons get further away from the nucleus, and thus, less energy is required to withdraw the electrons.

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged).

Give three reasons why fluid spills in water are more damaging than fluid spills on land
marta [7]

Answer:

1) Oil is less dense than water so when oil spills, it spreads across the entire water surface.

2) The oil spreads very quickly with lighter oils such as gasoline.

3) Wind, Currents, and Warm Temperatures will cause Oil to spread quicker.

A compound decomposes by a first-order process. if 25.0% of the compound decomposes in 60.0 minutes, the half-life of the compou
Tom [10]
Answer:<span>d. 145 minutes

Half-life is the time needed for a radioactive to decay half of its weight. The formula to find the half-life would be:

Nt= N0 (1/2)^ t/h

Nt= the final mass
N0= the initial mass
t= time passed
h= half-life

If 25.0% of the compound decomposes that means the final mass would be 75% of initial mass. Then the half-live for the compound would be:
Nt= N0 (1/2)^ t/h
75%= 100% * (1/2)^ (60min/h)
3/4= 1/2^(60min/h)
log2 3/4 = log2 1/2^(60min/h)
0.41503749928 = -60min/h
h= -60 min / 0.41503749928= 144.6min

What are two variables that affect kinetic energy
zubka84 [21]

The answer for the following questions is explained below.

Explanation:

The two variables that affect kinetic energy are:

  1. mass    and
  2. velocity

  • velocity - The faster an object moves,the more the kinetic energy it has.
  • mass - Kinetic energy increases as mass increases

The kinetic energy of an object depends on both its mass and its velocity

Kinetic energy increases as mass increases

For example,think about rolling a bowling ball and a golf ball down a bowling lane at same velocity

Here,the bowling ball has more mass than the golf ball

Therefore you use more energy to roll the bowling ball than to roll the golf ball

The bowling ball is more likely to knock down the pins because it has more kinetic energy than the golf ball
