I believe Mendeleev formed his periodic table by atomic weight (nowadays we do it by atomic number) so he likely used those values.
The correct answer is gonna be C) A lithium cation ion is smaller
A lithium cation has lost its valence electrons, which causes the remaining electrons to be pulled in stronger by the positive charge in the nucleus. As they get closer to the nucleus, the overall size of the atom is decreased.
Answer:
motor oil
Explanation:
According to Oxford dictionary, viscosity refers to ''a quantity expressing the magnitude of internal friction in a fluid, as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow.''
The higher the molecular weight of a substance, the greater its viscosity. This is because, the long chains in the viscous substance become entangled thereby increasing the internal friction in the liquid.
Motor oil is a heavier hydrocarbon than gasoline hence it is more viscous than gasoline.
