How does atomic radius change from left to right across a period in the periodic table?
a. it tends to decrease.
c. it first increases, then decreases.
b. it tends to increase.
d. it first decreases, then increases.

Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that atoms are arranged with increasing atomic number from left to right. As a result, there will be increase in number of protons and electrons within a period, that is, from left to right.

Since protons have positive charge and electrons have negative charge so, more protons and electrons means more tightly they are attracted towards each other.

Hence, this will lead to a decrease in size of the atoms.

Therefore, we can conclude that atomic radius tends to decrease from left to right across a period in the periodic table.

answer; /// the amount of material dissolved in a measure of liquid(concentration) the above statement is (true); /// good luck

in scientific notation, the value of the  speed of light in a vacuum

  will be written as 2.995 * 10^8. when this value is represented in the form of

  a * 10^b, then, a = 2.995 and b = 8.

the value of the speed of light in a vacuum given above can also be rounded up to approximately 300000000. in this case, the scientific notation will be written as 3 *10^8.
