Pregunta 2
Pregunta
Which one of these sets has the elements arranged in correct order of increasing atomic radius and correctly explains the basis for this order?
Hint: When electrons are being shielded (repelled) by one another, what does this do to the size of the atom?
Ca < Sr = Rb because size depends on the principal quantum number.
Sr < Rb < Ca because fewer protons mean a larger radius.
Ca < Rb < Sr because radius depends on the total number of subatomic particles.
Ca < Sr < Rb because of effective nuclear charge and number of occupied principal shells.
Ca < Sr < Rb because of the number of protons and the number of occupied principal shells.

Which one of these two elements is more likely to lose an electron than the other? Why?
[Ne]3s1 [Kr]5s2, 4d10, 5p5
Think: What is the trend in Ionizing Energy, Electron affinity and Atomic Radius? Atoms with stronger ionizing energy do WHAT to weak little punks like Lithium? A bigger Atomic Radius means it's easier to do what to an atom? Where is the Atomic Radius the largest?
Respuesta
Magnesium-Mg, Because it is easier to lose one electron and achieve Noble gas stability, than to gain 6.
Antimony-Sb, Because it has enough Ionizing Energy, it will drop the electron and achieve Noble gas stability.
Sodium-Na, Because it is easier to lose one electron and achieve Noble gas stability, than to gain 6.
Iodine-I, In losing an electron it will reach Noble gas stability.
