Interpretation: The percent increase in volume for the given conversion of atom should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The
Example:
The electron affinity gets increases across the periods that are the horizontal rows in the periodic table.
Atomic radius:
Atomic radius is the distance between the atomic nucleus and outermost electron of an atom. From the atomic radius, the size of atoms can be visualized. But there is no specific distance from nucleus to electron due to electron cloud around the atom does not have well-defined boundary.
Mass number: It is given by the total number of protons and the neutrons present in the nucleus of the element and it is denoted by symbol A. The subscript that lies on the left side of the symbol of the element represents the mass number.
Cation: Removal of electron from the atom results to form positively charged ion called cation.
Anion: Addition of electron to atom results to form negatively charged ion called anion.
The net charge present in the element denotes the presence or absence of electrons in the element.
To identify: The percent decrease in volume between potassium and potassium one plus charge.

- Aluminum (Al) and silicon (Si) are in the same row (period) on the periodic table. The atomic radius of aluminum is 125 pm, while the atomic radius of silicon is 110 pm. Why is the aluminum atom larger than the silicon atom? Choose the best explanation. O Aluminum contains more electrons than silicon, so the electron cloud is larger. O The valence electrons in aluminum experience a lower effective nuclear charge than those in silicon, so they aren't pulled as strongly toward the nucleus. Valence electrons in aluminum are attracted to only 13 protons, while those in silicon are attracted to 14 protons, so the valence electrons aren't pulled as strongly toward the nucleus in aluminum. O Atomic radius decreases left-to-right on the periodic table and aluminum is farther to the left.arrow_forwardQ2. This question is about the periodicity of the Period 3 elements.
