The atomic radius of sodium is 186 pm and of chlorine is 100 pm. the ionic radius for na+ is 102 pm and for cl– is 181 pm. in going from na to cl in period 3, why does the atomic radius decrease while the ionic radius increases? a. the inner electrons in the sodium cation shield its valence electrons more effectively than the inner electrons in the chloride anion do. b. the inner electrons shield the valence electrons more effectively in the chlorine atom than in the chloride anion. c. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a smaller effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. d. the outermost electrons in chloride experience a larger effective nuclear charge than those in the sodium cation do. e. monatomic ions are bigger than the atoms from which they are formed.

Which of the following statements is true about energy quantization at the atomic level? electrons in the outermost orbits are the most stable. electrons in all the orbits around the nucleus have the same amount of energy. electrons in the orbit closest to the nucleus have the least amount of energy. electrons absorb or release the same amount of energy independent of the energy levels.

Some molecular compounds, such as hcl, ionize completely in solution. for molecular compounds such as h2co3, most molecules do not ionize in solution. which describes the properties of these two solutes? a. hcl and h2co3 have the same effect on the properties of the solution. b. hcl raises the freezing point of water more than h2co3 does. c. hcl raises the boiling point of water more than h2co3 does.
