The given elements are present in period 4 of periodic table. Now we will discuss the trend of atomic radius along period.
Atomic radius:
" It is the smallest distance from nucleus to the outer most valance shell of an atom"
When we move from left to right in the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size goes to decrease in same period because of edition of electron with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. In this way positive charge is also going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect causes the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell come closer to the nucleus.
As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.
"-2" is the electric charge of the oxygen ion among the following choices given in the question. It actually needs two electrons to complete the stable outer shell. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the third option or option "C". I hope that the answer has helped you.
The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed. The first two reactants have a total of 23 grams so therefore the product must have 23 grams as well. 23 - 16 = 7 There would be 7 grams of hydrogen gas.
A substance's molar mass is calculated by multiplying its relative atomic mass by the molar mass constant (1 g/mol). ... By multiplying a given mass by the molar mass, the amount of moles of the substance can be calculated.
