What is the alkaline earth metal with the largest atomic radius?
Radium (Ra) Z = 88.
Which alkaline earth metal is the most likely to attract an electron pair?
The electronegativityÊ of alkaline earth metals decreases as you go down the group due to increase in atomic radius. The earth alkaline metals are beryllium, magnesium, strontium, barium and radium. Radium has the smallest electronegative.
The alkaline earth element having the largest atomic radius is found in period?
7th period because atomic size down the group increases. And Alkali Earth metals are found only in Group 1. The element is in Group 1 and period 7
Why is the bond in beryllium chloride covalent rather than ionic?
The Be2+ cation is smaller in size (being above the rest of the group 2 elements) and hence has high charge density. This enables it to easily polarise the comparatively larger Cl- anion, which results in a covalent characteristic of the compound. Dative bonding (a special type of covalent bond in which the shared electrons come from one of the atoms only) occurs in the compound and BeCl2 usually occurs as a dimer i.e Be2Cl4 (polymeric type) based on the linear molecular structure of BeCl2. Polarisation occurs between a small cation with high charge density and a larger anion. Since the size of the cations of the group 2 elements increases down the group (more atomic radius), charge density around the cation decreases and hence their ability to polarise the Cl- also decreases, resulting in an ionic compound.
How are particle accelerators used to synthesize elements?
What essentially happens is two nuclei of two different (or the same) elements are smashed together; sometimes (although rarely) parts of the nuclei will stick together instead of getting obliterated or shot out. It is through this process that particle accelerators are used to create elements; however, it is worth noting that these elements are unstable due to the nucleus's atomic radius being to large; it will be greater than the range of the residual strong force.
Why is the atomic radius of iodine is greater that the atomic radius of fluorine?
Iodine has 53 electrons in its orbitals while fluorine only has nine. This does not even count the proton/neutron variance.
Does beryllium or barium have a bigger atomic radius?
Radium has a much larger atomic radius than beryllium.
Which of these elements has the largest atomic radius. Aluminum potassium fluorine. Calcium?
Potassium has the largest atomic radius. It is in the 1st group of the periodic table. Fluorine has the least atomic radius.
What is smaller than the atomic radius of beryllium?
Generally, any element with a lower atomic number.
How does the size of a beryllium atom compare to one of oxygen?
The empirically atomic radius of beryllium (105 pm) is higher than the empirically atomic radius ofoxygen (60 pm).
Which has larger atomic radius fluorine or bromine?
bromine
Is N larger in size or F?
In terms of atomic radius yes, nitrogen is larger than fluorine. However, the common fluorine isotopes have a greater mass than those of nitrogen.
What is smaller than the atomic radius of beryllium (Be)?
Generally, any element with a lower atomic number.
What element in the second period has the smallest atomic radius?
Fluorine
Which alkali earth metal has the smallest atomic radius?
The alkali earth metal with the smallest atomic radius would be beryllium(Be), number four
Can you describe the general trend in atomic radius in group 2A?
In the group 2 (IUPAC name) of the periodic table the atomic radius increase from beryllium to radium.
Which element has the smallest atomic radius fluorine chlorine bromine iodine astatine?
Flourine
