<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Atomic radius is defined as the total distance from the nucleus to outermost orbital of the electron.

As moving from top to bottom, new shell is added around the nucleus. The outermost orbital gets far away from the nucleus and hence, the distance between the nucleus and outermost orbital gets increased.

Thus, the atomic radii of the elements increases as we move from top to bottom in a group.

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.

A chemist must prepare 0.200 L of 1.00 M aqueous silver nitrate working solution. He'll do this by pouring out 1.82 mol/L aqueous silver nitrate stock solution into a graduated cylinder and diluting it with distilled water. How many mL of the silver nitrate stock solution should the chemist pour out?

Answer: 0.110 L

Explanation:

According to the dilution law,

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,  

M_1 = molarity of stock silver nitrate solution = 1.82 M

V_1 = volume of stock silver nitrate solution = ?  

M_1 = molarity of diluted silver nitrate solution = 1.00 M

V_1 = volume of diluted silver nitrate solution = 0.200 L

Putting in the values we get:

1.82M\times V_1=1.00M\times 0.200L

V_1=0.110L

Therefore, volume of silver nitrate stock solution required is 0.110 L

How do you explain why air bags in cars are important during head on collisions using Newton’s first law?
Alenkasestr [34]
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. This is referred to as interia . If an unbalanced force such as another vehilce hits another, than a persons air bag will then be active . Because when a car is in motion at a constant speed, that’s what will happen when an unbalanced force acts apon it .
