Positively charged and the sodium ion would be a cation
The importance of the Galapagos to Darwin theory is chances Darwin discovered several species of finches that varied from island to island .
A big part of reason it is so famous is because of Darwin finches.
which are 12 <span>species ,also the Darwin theory is only gradually accepted because people don't believe in them today</span>
Answer:
<em>For both cases the answer is C</em>
Explanation:
We can see that the orbitals are not filled in the order of increasing energy and the Pauli exclusion principle is violated because it does not follow the correct order of the electron configuration; In the first exercise after the 2s2 orbital, the 2p2 orbital follows.
For the second exercise, you must start in order with level 1 and correctly filling each of the sublevels corresponding to each level until reaching level 7 and thus completing the desired number of electrons.
Answer:
SCl₂
Explanation:
In order to know the empirical formula, we have to follow a series of steps.
Step 1: Divide each percentage by the atomic mass
S: 26.95/32.07 = 0.8403
Cl: 59.61/35.45 = 1.682
Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one.
S: 0.8403/0.8403 = 1
Cl: 1.682/0.8403 ≈ 2
The empirical formula of the compound is SCl₂.
Answer:
- <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>
Explanation:
Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.
Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:
- Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.
- Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.
Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:
- Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.
- Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.
So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:
- O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.
Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
