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.
Answer:
1. 1568 J
2. 0 J
3. 1176 J
Explanation:
PE = mgh
(PE = Potential Energy) = (m = mass)(g = gravitational force which is 9.8)(h = height)
1. (3)(9.8)(20) = 1568 J
2. PE = (3)(9.8)(0) = 0 J
3. (5)(9.8)(24) = 1176 J
An ionized has consisting of positive ions and free elections in proportion resulting in more or less no overall electric charge
