Using the VSEPR theory, the electron bond pairs and lone pairs on the center atom will help us predict the shape of a molecule. The shape of a molecule is determined by the location of the nuclei and its electrons. The electrons and the nuclei settle into positions that minimize repulsion and maximize attraction.
1. For this question, the adjective small must be percepted in a relative sense. This is because it is not the smallest ion (that would be hydrogen). It could be that the antimony and beryllium ions are smaller compared to their neutral forms. This is because they donate electrons when ionized. As a result, the electrons are reduced, so does the electron cloud which makes the radius much smaller.
2. The periodic table is arranged in terms of increasing atomic number. For neutral atoms, the number of protons (atomic number) is equal to the number of electrons. So, the farther we go down the table, the higher the atomic number. The higher the atomic number, the bigger the electron cloud which makes the atomic radius bigger. Because by definition, atomic radius is the length from the nucleus to the farthest electron from the nucleus.
Answer:
Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon, and Oganesson
Explanation:
they have full outer shells
Aspartame produces 4 kilocalories of energy per gram when metabolized, While table sugar produces 3.9 kilocalories. However, aspartame is approximately 200 times sweeter than table of sugar, so it is consumed in much smaller doses. Then we can say that they're pretty much the same
There are two possible situations.
1) If a phase change is not occurring, then the heat added contributes to increased translational energy of the particles. What that means is the particles move/vibrate faster.
2) If a phase change is occurring, then the heat added contributes to the breaking of bonds or intermolecular forces (depending on the chemical nature of the matter you're dealing with).
