Answer: decreases
Explanation:
Atomic radius in a period from left to right decreases due to increase in nuclear charge.
On moving from left to right, electrons are getting added in outer shell and no of protons also increased which results increase in nuclear charge. Increased nulcear charge holds the electrons tigthly hence electrons moves close to nucleus. So radius decreases.
Answer: This option is incorrect: <span>B. Covalent compounds are held together by much stronger interparticle forces than are ionic compounds.
Justification:
Ionic bonds, held by ionic compounds, are much stronger than covalent bonds, held by covalent compounds.
In ionic bonds one element yields one or more electrons forming a cation (a positively charged ion) and the other element accepts the electrons forming an anion (a negatively charged ion).
The anion and the cation are electrostatically atracted by each other. This electrostatic atraction force, named ionic bond, is very strong.
As result of this, the ionic compounds form strong crystals with high boiling and fusion points. A good example of this the sodium chloride, formed by the union of cation Na(+) and anion Cl(-).
The covalent bonds are result of sharing electrons and do not form ions. This bond is weaker than the ionic bond.

Answer:-
95 grams
Explanation:-
Let the mass of water to be added be M
So total mass = 5 + M
So 5% of this solution has 5g of NaCl by mass.
∴ (M+5) x (5/100) = 5
M+5 = 5 x 100/5
M+5=100
M= 100-5
95
So amount of water to be added is 95 gram
Answer: The answer is biotic
Explanation:Mushrooms are biotic because they are living things. Abiotic means non living, so these are factors in the environment that influence a living thing's life and chance of survival
Answer:
The proportion of dissolved substances in seawater is usually expressed in ppm, ppb or ppt
Explanation:
The concentration of very diluted solutions should be expressed in parts per million, billion or trillion.
ppm = mass from the solute . 10⁶ / mass or volume of the solution
ppb = mass from the solute . 10⁹ / mass or volume of the solution
ppt = mass from the solute . 10¹² / mass or volume of the solution
ppm = mg/kg, μg/g, μg/mL → These are the units
ppb = ng/g
ppt = pg/g
