Answer:

Strontium (St)

Explanation:

The atom that will have a larger radius than zinc is strontium, Sr.

Atomic radius is defined as the half of the inter-nuclear distance between two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements or half of the distance between two nuclei in the solid state of metals.

Across the period atomic radii decreases progressively due to the increase in nuclear charge.
Down a group atomic radii increase progressively due to the successive shells of electrons being added.
Since strontium satisfies the criteria, it has the larger atomic radius.

Use the equation editor or "Insert Chemistry - WIRIS editor" to write the balanced molecular chemical equation for the reaction

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The balanced molecular equation for the reaction :

$Cu(NO_3)_2(aq)+K_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow CuCO_3(s)+2KNO_3(aq)$

Explanation:

The reaction between copper(II) nitrate and potassium carbonate gives solid precipitate of copper(II) carbonate and aqueous solution of potassium nitrate.

$Cu(NO_3)_2(aq)+K_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow CuCO_3(s)+2KNO_3(aq)$

According to reaction, 1 mole of copper(II) nitrate reacts with 1 mole of potassium carbonate to give 1 mole of copper(II) carbonate and 2 moles of potassium nitrate,
