Answer:
what does it say under the paragraph
Explanation:
Elements in the same group<span> in the </span>periodic table<span> have </span>similar<span> chemical properties. This is because their atoms have the </span>same<span> number of electrons in the highest occupied energy level. </span>Group<span> 1 </span>elements<span> are reactive metals called the alkali metals.</span>Group<span> 0 </span>elements<span> are unreactive non-metals called the noble gases.</span>
According to Grahams law the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of it's molecular weight. The rate of diffusion is the measure of rate at which two gases mix. From this law we can say that for the two gases carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, the rate of effusion of carbon monoxide is greater than that of carbon dioxide, this is because carbon monoxide is lighter (28 g) compared to carbon dioxide (44 g).
Answer:
When an atom attracts extra electrons it becomes a negative ion. The negative ion is larger than the original atom. The positive nucleus remains the same, with the same attractive force. However, this attractive force is now pulling on more electrons and therefore has less effect.
Or
Positive ions are formed by removing one or more electrons from the outermost region of the atom. The opposite is true of negative ions. When electrons are added to form an anion, the increased electron-electron repulsions cause the electrons to spread out more in space. Thus, anions are larger than their parent atoms.
