Answer:

It decreases

Explanation:

As one moves from left to right on the periodic table, the radius of atoms reduces due to the nuclear pull.

  • The size of an atom estimated by the atomic radius is taken as half of the internuclear distance between the two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements.
  • Across a period, atomic radius decreases progressively from left to right.
  • This is due to the increasing nuclear charge without attendant increase in the number of electronic shell.

One difference between molecular formula and molecular weight.​
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: The formula mass (formula weight) of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula. The molecular mass (molecular weight) of a molecule is its average mass as calculated by adding together the atomic weights of the atoms in the molecular formula.

Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!!!! :D

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The answer is C. The partial pressure of hydrogen will be unchanged.

Explanation:

CO_{(g)} + 2H_{2(g)}  ⇒  CH_{3}OH

Argon with electronic configuration 1s^{2}  2s^{2}  2p^{6}  3s^{2}  3p^{6} (that is atomic number 18) is an inert gas making it unreactive and it's addition to the reaction has no effect on the partial pressure of either the reactant or production or the state of the system.

The partial pressure of hydrogen will remain unchanged on the addition of Argon.
