Answer: Na, S, Cl
Explanation:
Atomic size decreases as one moves from left to right on the periodic table with elements in the same period. This is as a result of the electrons increasing in the outer circle and thus being drawn to the protons in the nucleus which will lead to the outer shell area decreasing.
Sodium (Na) comes before Sulfur (S) which comes before Chlorine (S) so this is the decreasing order as they are all in the same period.
Answer: Friction is a force that resists relative motion between two surfaces in contact. Depending on the application, friction may be desirable or undesirable.
Answer:
The configuration of the atom would be 2-8-2.
Explanation:
Any atom of an element combines with other element to complete its octet and become stable.
The electron configuration of the given atom is 2-8-6. That means the atom has 6 electrons in its outermost shell. To become stable the atom should have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. The given atom has 6 electrons so it either lose 6 electrons or gain 2 electrons to complete its octet.
But we know the atom having 5,6,7 electrons in its outermost shell they do not lose, they gain either 3 or 2 or 1 electrons to complete its octet.
So we say that atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 bond with the atom having electron configuration 2-8-2.
Answer:
The atomic mass of element is 65.5 amu.
Explanation:
Given data:
Abundance of X-63 = 50.000%
Atomic mass of X-63 = 63.00 amu
Atomic mass of X-68 = 68.00 amu
Atomic mass of element = ?
Solution:
Abundance of X-68 = 100-50 = 50%
Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100
Average atomic mass = (50×63)+(50×68) /100
Average atomic mass = 3150 + 3400 / 100
Average atomic mass = 6550 / 100
Average atomic mass = 65.5 amu.
The atomic mass of element is 65.5 amu.
