Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When we move from top to bottom in a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to increase in the number of electrons.
For example, in group 2A elements beryllium is the smallest in size whereas radium being at the bottom is the largest in size.
Also, atomic number of beryllium is 4 and atomic number of radium is 88.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options radium is the 2A element which has the largest atomic radius.
Answer:
D. 5.6 g/cm^3
Explanation:
On the average seismic velocity increases with increase in depth due higher the pressure and more compaction
sand and shales in the Niger Delta Basin density–velocity relationship is
P = 0.31×V^0.25
A derivation of the original Gardner equation to calculate the average densities for sands and shales in wells.
ρ = α ×V^β
where
ρ = bulk density in g/cm3,
V = P-wave velocity,
α = 0.31 for V (m/s) and 0.23 for V(ft/s) and
β = 0.25.
Such that
ρ = 0.31 ×V^0.25
So the fastest seismic velocity will be in the densest material which is D. 5.6 g/cm3
B. Molecules in both the metal and the surrounding air will start moving at higher speeds.
