36.Which best explains why an Al3+ ion is smaller than an Al atom?

A) In forming the Al3+ ion, the Al atom loses the electrons in its outermost energy level, causing a decrease in the atomic radius.

B) In forming the Al3+ ion, the Al atom gains three protons and the resulting net positive charge keeps the electrons more strongly attracted to the nucleus, reducing the radius.

C) The Al3+ ion contains more electrons than the Al atom, which results in a greater attraction for the nucleus and a smaller atomic radius.

D) In forming the Al3+ ion, the Al atom adds electrons into a higher energy level, causing a decrease in the atomic radius.

E) There are more protons in an Al3+ ion than there are in an Al atom.

38.Hydrogen can form two different ions: a hydrogen ion (H+), and a hydride ion (H−).  Which statement concerning these ions is FALSE?

A) The H+ ion is a cation formed by the loss of one electron; this ion has no valence electrons.

B) The H− ion is an anion formed by the gain of one electron; this ion has a full n=1 energy level.

C) The hydrogen ion and the hydride ion are isotopes.

D) The hydrogen ion and the hydride ion have the same number of protons.

E) The hydrogen ion and the hydride ion have different sizes.

 

39.The element carbon forms the basis of study in Organic Chemistry.  Which statement about the element carbon is FALSE?

A) Carbon is a period 2 element.

B) Carbon is a group 4 element.
