The bad smelling element is Sulfur, which smells like rotting eggs.
There is a missing portion of this question which shows the reaction that needs balancing:
"In a balanced equation, the same number of each kind of atom is shown on each side of the equation. Calculate the number of iron (Fe), oxygen (O), and carbon atoms (C).
Fe2O3+ 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO<span>2
</span><span>Based on these values, is the equation balanced?</span><span>"
</span>
To check if this equation is balanced we simply compare the number of each element on each side of the equation.
On the reactant side of the equation we have:
2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms
On the product side of the equation we have:
2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms
Therefore, both side of the reaction have the correct and equal number of each atom, so the equation is balanced.
While staying in the same period, if we move from left to right across the period, the atomic radius decreases. The reason is, in a period the number of shells remain the same and the number of electrons and protons increase as we move across the period to the right. The increased electrons and protons attract each other with greater force and hence the atomic size decreases.
So the element on the left most will have the largest atomic radius. So the correct ans is Potassium. Potassium will have the largest atomic size among Potassium, Calcium and Scandium.
