Concept introduction:
Atomic size is the distance from the nucleus to the valence shell where the valence electrons are situated. It is very difficult to measure due to absence of any definite boundary.
Along the period, the atomic size decreases due to the increse in the effective nuclear charge.
Down the group, the atomic size increases because of addition of new shells in the successive members of the group.

- A mixture of C7H12O2, C9H9OCl, biphenyl and acetone was put together in a gas chromatography tube. Please decide from the GC resutls which correspond to the peak for C7,C9 and biphenyl and explain the reasoning based on GC results. Eliminate unnecessary peaks from Gas Chromatography results.arrow_forwardIs the molecule chiral, meso, or achiral? CI .CH3 H₂C CIarrow_forwardPLEASE HELP ! URGENT!arrow_forward
