<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Cations are much smaller than their corresponding parent
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Parent atom has more electrons and thus the effective nuclear charge on each electron is less.
- When a cation is formed electron(s) is/are lost. Thus the effective nuclear charge or simply put, the attraction of the nucleus towards the electrons increases. Therefore, due to greater pull, the nucleus pulls the shells towards it, there by reducing the size, which makes cations smaller than their corresponding parent.
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity can be calculated using the following equation: q = mc∆T In the equation q represents the amount of heat energy gained or lost (in joules ), m is the mass of the substance (in grams), c is the specific heat capacity of the substance (in J/g °C), and ∆T is the temperature change of the substance
Answer:
covalent
Explanation:
The carbon and the nitrogen very often form bonds in nature, carbon-nitrogen bonds, which are covalent types of bonds. In fact, the bonds between the carbon and nitrogen are one of the most abundant in the biochemistry and the organic chemistry. The bonds between these two can be double bonds, as well as triple bonds. The carbon-nitrogen bonds have the tendency to be strongly polarized toward the nitrogen.
