<u>Answer:</u> The ion that is expected to have a larger radius than the corresponding atom is chlorine.
<u>Explanation:</u>
There are two types of ions:
- <u>Cations:</u> They are formed when an atom looses its valence electrons. They are positive ions.
- <u>Anions:</u> They are formed when an atom gain electrons in its outermost shell. They are negative ions.
For positive ions, the removal of electron increases the nuclear charge for an outermost electron because the outermost electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus. So, the effective nuclear charge increases for cations and thus, the size of the cation will be smaller than that of the corresponding atom.
For negative ions, the addition of electron decreases the nuclear charge for an outermost electron because the outermost electrons are less strongly attracted by the nucleus. So, the effective nuclear charge decreases for anions and thus, the size of the anion will be larger than that of the corresponding atom.
For the given options:
<u>Option a:</u> Chlorine
Chlorine gains 1 electron and form ion
<u>Option b:</u> Sodium
Sodium looses 1 electron and form ion
<u>Option c:</u> Copper
Copper looses 2 electrons and form ion
<u>Option d:</u> Strontium
Strontium looses 2 electrons and form ion
Hence, the ion that is expected to have a larger radius than the corresponding atom is chlorine.
Answer:
<h2>15.37 moles</h2>
Explanation:
To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula
where n is the number of moles
N is the number of entities
L is the Avogadro's constant which is
6.02 × 10²³ entities
From the question we have
We have the final answer as
<h3>15.37 moles</h3>
Hope this helps you
Positive
And Negative for oxygen.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Assuming the units are all supposed to be the same
A cube shaped cell with a 1 um³ volume would have a dimensions of 1 x 1 x 1 (because volume = length x width x height and 1 x 1 x 1 =1)
If we double the dimensions, we have a cube with the dimensions 2 x 2 x 2.
The surface area of each face of the cube is the length x width, so 2 x 2. This means the surface area of each face of the cube is 4 um².
There are 6 faces of a cube, so the total surface area is 6 x 4 um² = 24 um².
