Q 1. Element M is a metal that forms compounds of the type MX2, MX3, and MX4, where X is a Chlorine (Cl).

Chemistry
1 answer:
SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The ionic radius of metal M decreases as the charge on the metal M increases. The ionic radius is generally defined as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electron of the ion. Hence, ionic radius becomes much lesser as the magnitude of the positive charge increases.

It is obvious  from the various formulae of metal chlorides in the question that the metal forms cations M^2+, M^3+ and M^4+ respectively. The order of decreasing ionic radius of the compounds is;

MX2 > MX3 > MX4

Explain and describe how the photoelectric effect occurs on an atomic level in terms of protons, neutrons, and electrons
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when electromagnetic radiation, such as light, hits a material. Electrons emitted in this manner are called photoelectrons.

Based on the wave model of light, physicists predicted that increasing light amplitude would increase the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons, while increasing the frequency would increase measured current.
