Which of these statements best explains why the atomic radius of main group elements generally increases down a group in the Periodic Table?

Given the data in the table below, what is ∆Hºrxn for the following process? IF5 (g)  +  F2 (g)  →  IF7 (g)

What is the electron domain geometry (EDG) and molecular geometry (MG) of CO32-?

Methylamine reacts with water according to the chemical equation: CH3NH2 (aq) + H2O (aq)  →  CH3NH3+ (aq) + OH- (aq) In this equation, what is the role of CH3NH2?

In 1910, Ernest Rutherford conducted his famous experiment in which he directed a beam of particles at a thin piece of gold foil, discovering a small, dense nucleus. What particles did he shoot at the gold foil in this experiment?

What will happen to the pressure of a gas if you double the number of moles of gas and triple the absolute temperature while holding volume constant?

The molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol while that of H2O is 18 g/mol.  Given that CO2 has a greater molar mass than H2O, why is CO2 a gas at room temperature and standard pressure while H2O is a liquid?

The element Michellium (Mi) does not exist. But if it did, it would have the following isotopic abundances: Isotope Atomic Mass  % Natural Abundance  83Mi      83.14 amu    14.6 %  83Mi      84.92 amu   Assuming that Michellium only has two naturally-occurring isotopes, what is the atomic weight of Michellium?
