Explanation:

A change that does not cause any change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.

For example, mass, density, volume etc are all physical changes.

On the other hand, a change that brings change in chemical composition of a substance is known as chemical change.

For example, combustion, toxicity, reactivity etc are all chemical changes.

Hence, following statements are identified as chemical or physical changes as follows.

(a) Oxygen gas supports combustion : Chemical change

(b) Fertilizers help to increase agricultural production : Chemical change

(c) Water boils below 100^{o}C on top of a mountain : Physical change

(d) Lead is denser than aluminum : Physical change

(e) Uranium is a radioactive element : Chemical change

Given any two elements within a group, is the element with the larger atomic number likely to have a larger or smaller atomic ra
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

Consider the example of sodium and potassium.

Sodium is present above the potassium with in same group i.e, group one.

The atomic number of sodium is 11 and potassium 19.

So potassium will have larger atomic radius as compared to sodium.

Atomic radius of sodium = 227 pm

Atomic radius of potassium = 280 pm

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

The invariant mass of an electron is approximately9. 109×10−31 kilograms, or5. 489×10−4 atomic mass units. On the basis of Einstein's principle of mass–energy equivalence, this mass corresponds to a rest energy of 0.511 MeV.
