Which ion below would have the smallest radius? Na+ Mg2+ 02- F

Chemistry
1 answer:
nadezda [96]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

F, Fluorine

Explanation:

Na^+ and Mg^2+ have both lost enough electrons to bring their electron shells to that of Neon, Ne.  (1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^6)

O^2- gained 2 electrons to also conform to neon's electron configuration.

F still retains its 1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^5 configuration, which would result in a slightly smaller radius as the 2p^5 electrons can pack slightly closer to the nucleus before being repelled by the negative charge of their neighboring electrons.

Why does earth have uranium
Rainbow [258]
The isotope U-235 is important because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and we use the expression 'nuclear fission'. Meanwhile, like all radioactive isotopes, they decay.

Calculează masa zaharului si volumul apei necesare pentru prepararea 500g de soluție de zahăr cu partea de masa 20%
Sedbober [7]
T = 20 %  : 20 / 100 = 0.2

m1 = solute 

m2 = Solvent

T = m1 / m1 + m2

0.2 = 500 g / 500 g + m2

0.2 * ( 500 + m2 ) = 500

0.2 * 500 + 0.2 m2 = 500

100 + 0.2 m2 = 500

0.2 m2 = 500 - 100

0.2 m2 = 400

m2 = 400 / 0.2

m2 = 2000 g of water

hope this helps!

Both protons and neutrons (and their anti-particles) froze out:
VladimirAG [237]
I think Both protons and neutrons (and their anti-particles) froze out at 1013 K, about 0.0001 seconds after the Big Bang. Protons and neutrons are sub atomic particles of an atom that are found in the nucleus of an atom. Proton is the positively charge particle while the neutron has no charge. The proton positive charge accounts for the positive nuclear charge.
