Answer:
Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.
Explanation:
As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.

To determine the mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide, we simply obtain the ratio of the mass of oxygen and the mass of sulfur produced from the decomposition of sulfur dioxide. All other values given in the problem statement above are just to confuse us that the question is a difficult one. We do as follows:
mass of oxygen per gram sulfur = 3.45 g / 3.46 g
mass of oxygen per gram sulfur = 0.9971 g O2 / g S
Answer: When a substance is pure, it is composed of one type of molecule. For example, table salt is only composed of (more or less) salt molecules, while seawater has water and salt molecules. A more complicated example of a non - pure substance is soil. It has many different types of nutrients and compounds.
Answer:
50 mol
Explanation:
Mass of methane = 800 g
Number of moles of CO₂ produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
Number of moles of methane:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 800 g/ 16 g/mol
Number of moles = 50 mol
Now we will compare the moles of methane and carbon dioxide from balanced chemical equation.
CH₄ : CO₂
1 : 1
50 : 50
