Why does atomic radii decrease as you move from the left to right across the period

When we move from left to right across the periodic table, we can see that the atomic radii keeps decreasing. This is because, as you move from left to right, the nucleus gains protons. The atomic number increases and hence the valence electron will feel more attracted towards the nucleus & the atomic radii will decrease.

Answer:

This is because, within a period or family of elements, all electrons are added to the same shell.

Is it possible to add an atom with 12 protons and 13 electrons explain​
Svetllana [295]
No, it is not possible. No.To gain a stable octet configuration, it would either lose 2e- (but question shows 13 e-) or else gain 6e- (which creates a great energy difference)

A volume of 75.0 mL of H2O is initially at room temperature (22.00 ∘C). A chilled steel rod at 2.00 ∘C is placed in the water. I
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: 17.78g

Explanation:

Assume there is no heat exchange with the environment, then the amount of heat taken by the steel rod, Q(s), is equal to the amount of heat lost by the water, Q(w), but with opposite sign.

Q(s) = -Q(w)

Remember, Q = mc(ΔΦ)

Where Q = amount of heat

m = mass of steel

c = specific heat capacity of steel

ΔΦ = Initial temperature T1 - Final temperature T2

Q = mc(T1-T2)

Recall, Q(s) = -Q(w). Then,

m(s)*c(s)*(T1s - T2s) = - m(w)*c(w)*(T1w - T2w)

Substituting each values

Note: m(w) = volume of water*density = 75mL*1g/mL = 75g

m(s)*0.452*(21.5-2) = -75*4.18*(21.5-22)

m(s)*8.814 = 156.75

m(s) = 156.75/8.814

m(s) = 17.78g

Therefore, the mass of steel is 17.78g
