Which of the following halogens has the largest atomic radius?

Chemistry

pickupchik [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ Iodine }}

Explanation:

Atomic radius is the measurement from the nucleus to the outer edge of the electron cloud.

As you go down a group (vertically) the atomic radius increases because more electron shells are added. As you go across a period horizontally, the atomic radius decreases.  

If we look at the halogens group (17), we see they follow this order from top to bottom:

F - Fluorine

Cl - Chlorine

Br - Bromine

I - Iodine

Since it increases down the group, iodine  must have the largest atomic radius.

Which has higher percentage of oxygen: (Fe = 56, O = 16, C = 12) a) FeO b) FeCO3 c) Fe2O3 d) Fe3O4
allochka39001 [22]

B)

FeO = 56, 16, 0

FeCO3 = 56, 48, 12

Fe2O3 = 112, 48, 0

Fe3O4 = 168, 64, 0

What is the empirical formula for a molecule containing 46.8% Si and 53.2% O?
Over [174]
Assume there are 100 g of the substance.
Masses:
Si: 46.8 g
O: 53.2 g
Moles:
Si: 46.8 / 28 = 1.67
O: 53.2 / 16 = 3.32
Dividing by the smaller number:
Si: 1.6 7/ 1.67 = 1
O: 3.32 / 1.67 = 2
Thus, the formula:
SiO2
