When a neutral atom that has a charge of negative absorbs an electron, this tends to lessen the size of the ion. The larger the negative charge of the negatively charged element, the smaller the size of the ion will be. Hence the answer is that the ion will have a smaller size than the neutral atom

Answer is: The atomic size of the chlorine ion is larger than the size of the chlorine atom.

Covalent radii of chlorine atom (Cl) is 0.099 nm and ionic radii of chlorine anion (Cl⁻) is 0.181 nm.

Difference between an chlorine atom and chlorine anion is the number of electrons that surround the nucleus.

Chlorine atom has 17 electrons and chlorine anion has 18 electrons.

What is best way to get salt out of salt water solution
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The "simple" hurdle that must be overcome to turn seawater into freshwater is to remove the dissolved salt in seawater. That may seem as easy as just boiling some seawater in a pan, capturing the steam and condensing it back into water (distillation).

At a higher temperature, K = 1.8 × 105. Placing the equilibrium mixture in an ice bath (thus lowering the temperature) will
Soloha48 [4]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

1. Given: 2A(g) <-> 2B(g) + C(g). At a particular temperature, K = 1.6x104.

At a higher temperature, K = 1.8x10-5. Placing the equilibrium mixture in an ice bath (thus lowering the temperature) will...

cause [A] to increase

cause [B] to increase

gave no effect

cannot be determined

Answer:

cause [B] to increase

Explanation:

We have to have it behind our minds that;  for an exothermic reaction, when the temperature is increased, the value of the equilibrium constant decreases. On the other hand, for an endothermic reaction, increasing the temperature increases the value of the equilibrium constant.

In this particular case, increasing the temperature decreased the equilibrium constant from K = 1.6x104 to K = 1.8x10-5 meaning that the equilibrium constant decreased with increase in temperature. This means that the reaction is exothermic and a decrease in temperature will favour the forward reaction hence more B is produced.
