Answer:
electron-electron repulsion
Explanation:
When electrons add into valence shell of neutral elements, the element assumes a negative oxidation state. With this, the number of electrons having (-) charges will be larger than the number of protons having positive (+) charges. As a result, the extra electrons repel one another (i.e., like charges repel) and a larger radius is the result.
In contrast, when cations are formed, electrons are removed from the valence level (oxidation) producing an element having a greater number of protons than electrons. The larger number of protons will function to attract the electron cloud with a greater force that results in a contraction of atomic radius and a smaller spherical volume than the neutral unionized element.
To visualize, see attached chart that shows atomic and ionic radii before and after ionization of the elements.
Solution :
Cd(s) ---------------------->

,
= 0.34 v
(aq) + 2
------------> Cu (s) ,
= -0.04 v
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cd(s) +
(aq) ------------->
(aq) + Cu (s) ,
= 0.30 v

Answer:
The specific heat capacity of quartz is 0.71 J/g°C.
Explanation:
Heat lost by quartz will be equal to heat gained by the water

Mass of quartz= 
Specific heat capacity of quartz= 
Initial temperature of the quartz= 
Final temperature = 

Mass of water=
Specific heat capacity of water= 
Initial temperature of the water = 
Final temperature of water = 



On substituting all values:

we get:

The specific heat capacity of quartz is 0.71 J/g°C.
