Help me out please if you guys can

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.

A3.37-mg sample of protein was chemically digested to convert its nitrogen into ammonia and then diluted to 100.0 ml. then 10.0 ml of this solution was placed in a 50-ml volumetric flask and treated with 5 ml of phenol solution plus 2 ml of sodium hypochlorite solution. the sample was diluted to 50.0 ml, and the absorbance at 625 nm was measured in a 1.00-cm cuvette and found to be 0.486. for reference, a standard solution was prepared from 10.0 mg of nh4cl (molar mass = 53.49 grams/mole) dissolved in 1.00 l of water. then 10.0 ml of this standard was placed in a 50-ml volumetric flask, treated in the same manner as the unknown, and the absorbance found to be 0.323. finally, a reagent blank was prepared using distilled water in place of unknown, it was treated in the same manner as the unknown, and the absorbance found to be 0.076. calculate the weight percent of nitrogen in the protein.

Part b: study of equilibrium on solubility: mg(oh)2(s) ⇌ mg2+(aq) + 2 oh–(aq) cloudy clear (pink) 7. a. b. 8. a. b. 9. 10. 11. 12. when adding concentrated hydrochloric acid, how did the appearance of the equilibrium mixture change? the change in appearance indicated a shift in the point of equilibrium. in which direction did the equilibrium shift? (l) left (r) right explain your answer to question 7a. you should indicate which ion was added to or removed from the equilibrium mixture. when adding edta, how did the appearance of the equilibrium mixture change? the change in appearance indicated a shift in the point of equilibrium. in which direction did the equilibrium shift? (l) left (r) right explain your answer to question 8a. you should indicate which ion was added to or removed from the equilibrium mixture. upon heating in which direction is the equilibrium shifting? upon cooling in which direction is the equilibrium shifting? is the forward reaction a. endothermic explain your answers to questions 9, 10, and 11. (l) left (r) right (l) left (r) right b. exothermic
