The postmortem cooling or algor mortis gets fixed by 8- 10 hours after death. The temperature of the body after death can be used to determine the time since death.
While staying in the same period, if we move from left to right across the period, the atomic radius decreases. The reason is, in a period the number of shells remain the same and the number of electrons and protons increase as we move across the period to the right. The increased electrons and protons attract each other with greater force and hence the atomic size decreases.
So the element on the left most will have the largest atomic radius. So the correct ans is Potassium. Potassium will have the largest atomic size among Potassium, Calcium and Scandium.

LiF or lithium fluoride is the non covalent molecule or ionic compound.
Option 3.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Covalent molecules are those molecules which do have actual bonds between the atoms present in the molecule by sharing of the electrons. But in ionic molecules, there's no actual bonds between the atoms, but the oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other by means of electrostatic force of attraction.
The molecules that are formed by the atoms with high electronegativity and electropositivity are actually ionic because the atoms with high electronegativity are able to actually gain electron readily and the atoms with high electropositivity are actually ready to give the electrons to the electronegative elements.
Lithium is highly electropositive and fluoride is highly electronegative. So they establish an ionic bond. But other molecules like fluorine molecule has both the electronegative elements, Carbon monoxide has carbon which isn't electropositive highly, and ammonia has hydrogen which isn't electropositive.
So lithium fluoride is the ionic compound.
