Explain why Ra is larger than Be. With 2 points.
igor_vitrenko [27]

Explanation:

<h2>Radium(Ra)=> </h2>

atomic number=88

<h2>BERYLLIUM (Be)=></h2>

atomic number =4

why is Ra larger than Be

<h3>1. since the atomic number of Ra is greater than Be, the number of electrons is more, which means there are more number of shells present in Ra than Be. </h3><h2>(atomic Radius)</h2>

<h2>2. the more the valence electron (excluding fully filled ones) the less is the nuclear attraction force</h2><h3>since Ra has more valence electron in its outermost shell, the nuclear attraction force is less which means that Ra 's size is greater than Be.</h3>

hope it helps:)

Select which of the following characteristics match with the correct state of matter.
Tasya [4]

The gases have no definite shape, low density, and are highly compressible while the liquids only have a definite volume but no definite shape.

<h3>What is a Matter?</h3>

Any substance which has mass and occupies space is called matter. Commonly, there are three states of matter that are:

  • Solid - Solids have a rigid shape, definite volume, and high density.
  • Liquid - Liquids have definite volume but no definite shape. They take the shape of the container in which they are placed.
  • Gas - Gases have neither definite shape nor definite volume and have low density. They completely occupy the container in which they are placed.

There are other two states of matter that are Plasma and man-made Bose-Einstein condensates. They are not so common.

Plasma is commonly found in the universe. Stars are the superheated balls of the plasma.

Thus, gases have no definite shape, low density, and are highly compressible. On the other hand, the liquids only have a definite volume but no definite shape.

Which of the following matches is not correct?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

SO42 - Trigonal planar ion

Explanation:

The SO4^2- ion is tetrahedral and not trigonal planar because the sulphur atom has four regions of electron density which includes the lone pair of electrons on sulphur atom.

This accounts for the observed tetrahedral arrangement of electron pairs around the central sulphur atom in SO4^2- ion, hence the answer.
