It will become smaller because the three electrons it will lose decreases the size of the 'cloud' of electrons rather than making it larger. They also will be 'held' tighter to the nucleus. The opposite is true of those elements that gain electrons.
No, aluminum has a larger atomic radius than sodium. Aluminum has a greater number of protons in its nucleus compared to sodium, leading to a larger effective nuclear charge that pulls its electrons closer, resulting in a smaller atomic radius.
Yes, indium (In) is larger than aluminum (Al) in terms of atomic size. Indium has a larger atomic radius because it is located further down in the periodic table, which means it has more electron shells compared to aluminum. This increased number of shells results in a greater distance between the nucleus and the outermost electrons, making indium physically larger than aluminum.
Magnesium's atomic radius is smaller than Calcium's.
Sodium (Na) has a larger atomic radius than aluminum (Al).
Barium (137.327) is larger than aluminum (24.305)
The phosphorus ion (P³⁻) is larger than the aluminum ion (Al³⁺) due to differences in their electron configurations and effective nuclear charge. Phosphorus gains three electrons to achieve a stable octet, resulting in increased electron-electron repulsion and a larger ionic radius. In contrast, aluminum loses three electrons, leading to a higher effective nuclear charge that pulls the remaining electrons closer to the nucleus, resulting in a smaller ionic size. Thus, the gain of electrons in phosphorus versus the loss in aluminum accounts for the size difference.
Typically, chromosomes are not larger than a cell. Chromosomes are made up of DNA and proteins and are found within the nucleus of a cell. Cells contain many chromosomes, each of which is a long, coiled molecule.
Sodium has a larger atomic radius than aluminum.
Yes..Aluminium has a larger charge (more electrons) and the electrons cloud are more compress to the nucleus (small atomic radius) compared to Sodium. So the density of Aluminium is larger and this leads to better conductivity of electricity.
yes
beta
it is the control center of a cell
