The neutral atom is bigger. The ion would be smaller because in order for magnesium to become a positively charged ion, it has to give up its valence electrons, which results in the removal of the outermost energy level. So instead of having three energy levels, the ion now has only two.
Sulfate (SO4) is comprised of a sulfur atom surrounded by four oxygen atoms. It is a molecule, not an atom, and it is larger both in volume and in mass than a magnesium atom.
Sulfur is bigger than Magnesium. Sulfur has an Atomic Mass of ~32 while Magnesium's is only ~24.
Yes, lithium atoms are larger than magnesium atoms.
No!sulphur atom is smaller than phosphorus atom
Iron, Fe
Sulphur has a molar mass of 32.065. Carbon has a molar mass of 12.01. 32.065 / 12.01 = 2.67. So an sulphur atom is 2.67 heavier than an carbon atom.
The nuclear charge is the same for both species, but the eight valence electrons in the sulfide ion experience a greater amount of electron-electron repulsion than do the six valence electrons in the neutral sulfur atom. This extra repulsion in the sulfide ion increases the average distance between the valence electrons, so the electron cloud around the sulfide ion has the greater radius.
No. A cesium atom is larger both in terms of atomic mass and atomic radius.
Because each atom has more eletons, so it needs more space.
A sulfur atom is larger than an oxygen atom.
Phosphate is H3PO4 and phosphite is H3PO3. Phosphoric acid, when neutralized with a base, such as ammonium or potassium, forms a salt (Phosphate). Phosphorous acid also forms a salt when neutralized with a base (Phosphite). Thus, Phosphite has one less oxygen molecule than Phosphate.
Not at all; the cesium atom is far bigger than the lithium atom.
Iron, Fe
Atoms cannot be described as polar, only molecules.Nitrogen is, however more electronegative than sulfur if that's what you mean.
8 Times Heavier
oxygen and carbon -the gamdecbdvcjd
Because the sum of protons, neutrons and electrons masses in sulfur atom is higher than in a carbon atom.
An atom is smaller than a compound because if an electron fits in an atom, and an atom is a part of a compound, it means a compound is bigger than an atom
An atom is a component of matter; mole is a unit for the amount of substance in SI. Of course a mole of atoms is bigger than a single atom.
Yes, of course
The Universe. an atom
