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 statement justifies that hydrogen peroxide (h2o2) is a polar molecule? the o – h bond is nonpolar and the molecule is asymmetric. the o – h bond is nonpolar and the molecule is symmetric. the o – h bond is polar and the molecule is asymmetric. the o – h bond is polar and the molecule is symmetric.

What changes occur in the reaction indicated by the equation? check all that apply. the hydrogen nucleus loses protons. the oxygen nucleus gains protons. the bond in h2 is broken, and new bonds are formed between hydrogen and oxygen atoms. each electron associated with a hydrogen atom is shared with an oxygen atom.
