Answer:
The answer to your question is: Al, Si have the greatest and S, C have the smallest.
Explanation:
Atomic radius increases from right to left in the periodic table.
Atomic radius increases from the upper section to the lower section of the periodic table.
Order of the atomic radius from highest to lowest.
Al, Si, S and C
First, calculate the mass of sodium in g with the help of molar mass and number of moles.
Number of moles = 
(1)
Molar mass of sodium =
Substitute the given value of number of moles and molar mass of sodium in formula (1)
(1)
(1)
mass of sodium in g = 
Now, according to conversion factor, 1 g = 1000 mg
So, of sodium = 
= 
of sodium
Thus, mass of sodium in mg =
Answer: both options A and D
Explanation:
Half filled and completely filled orbitals are more stable than any other configuration since they are more symmetrical and energy exchange Occurs readily.
So 4f^7& 4f^14 are more stable
The atomic number of Li is 3
Electron configuration of Li : 1s² 2s¹
The atomic number of Na is 11
Electron configuration of Na : 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹
Thus there is one electron in the valence shell of Li (2s¹) and that of Na (3s¹). However, the valence electron in Na is in a shell that is farther away from the nucleus compared to that of Li. As a result, the Na valence electron will be held less tightly by the nucleus i.e. it will experience a reduced nuclear attraction and can be removed easily than the Li 2s electron.
We have to get the relationship between metallic character and atomic radius.
Metallic character increases with increase in atomic radius and decrease with decrease of atomic radius.
If electrons from outermost shell of an element can be removed easily, that atom can be considered to have more metallic character.
With increase in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electron decreases which facilitates the release of electron.
With decrease in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electrons increases, so electrons are hold tightly to nucleus. Hence, removal of electron from outermost shell becomes difficult making the atom less metallic in nature.
