Answer:
Across a period, effective nuclear charge increases as electron shielding remains constant. A higher effective nuclear charge causes greater attractions to the electrons, pulling the electron cloud closer to the nucleus which results in a smaller atomic radius. ... This results in a larger atomic radius.

Explanation:
Atomic size increases down the group due to the addition of more shells.
As more shells are added and repulsion of inner electrons become more significant, atomic size increases down the group. However, across the period, atomic size decreases due to increase in effective nuclear charge without any increase in the number of shells. This causes increased attraction between the nucleus and the outermost shell thereby decreasing the size of the atom.
Ionization energy decreases down the group because the outermost electron is more shielded by inner electrons making it easier for this outermost electron to be lost. Across the period, ionization energy increases due to increase in effective nuclear charge which makes it more difficult to remove the outermost electron due to increased nuclear attraction.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g
Mass of water = 5.67g
Unknown:
Limiting reactant = ?
Solution:
The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.
Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;
Al₂O₃ + 3H₂O → 2Al(OH)₃
Number of moles;
Number of moles = 
molar mass of Al₂O₃ = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole
number of moles =
= 0.04mole
molar mass of H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole
number of moles =
= 0.32mole
From the reaction equation;
1 mole of Al₂O₃ reacted with 3 moles of H₂O
0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O
But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.
This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant
