As an atom’s radius increases, 1. its ionization energy increases. 2. its ionizations energy increases or decreases depending on whether you are going up a column or across a row. 3. its ionization energy does not change. 4. its ionization energy decreases

The correct option is: 4. its ionization energy decreases

Explanation:

Ionization energy refers to the energy required to pull a valence electron completely from the valence shell of a gaseous atom.

Now, in the periodic table of chemical elements, as we down a group, the atomic radius increases, so the effective nuclear charge experienced by the valence electron decreases. Therefore, the ionization energy decreases, down the group.

As we across a period, the atomic radius usually decreases, so the effective nuclear charge experienced by the valence electron increases. Therefore, usually the ionization energy increases, across the period.

Therefore, as the atomic radius increases, the effective nuclear charge experienced by the valence electron decreases and thus the ionization energy also decreases.

  1.the balanced   chemical equation is as below

cu +   2 ag(no)₃ → cu(no₃)₂   +2 ag

2.the   much silver   produced   is   50.9 g

step 1: find the   moles of cu

moles =   mass÷   molar mass

  from periodic table the molar mass of cu = 63.5 g/mol

moles is therefore = 15.00 g÷ 63.5 g/mol = 0.236   moles

step 2: use the mole ratio to determine the   moles of ag

from equation above   cu: ag   is 1: 2

therefore the moles of ag   =0.236   moles   x 2/1 =0.472   moles

step 3: find the mass   of ag

mass = moles x molar mass

from periodic table   the molar mass of ag =107.87 g/mol

mass   = 0.472   moles x 107.87 g/mol = 50.9 g

3.   the   much   silver   collected worth is   1.797 oz

  convert   50.9 g   to oz

that is   1 gram = 0.0353 oz

          50.9 grams =?   oz

by cross multiplication

={(50.9 grams x 0.0353 oz) / 1   gram}   =1.797 oz
