Identify the elements correctly shown by decreasing radii size. Group of answer choices N > N3- K+ > K S- > S2- N3- > N Cu2+ > Cu+

Answer: \( \text{N}^{3-} > \text{N} \)

Explanation: When comparing ionic and atomic radii, the size of an ion or atom is influenced by the number of electrons and the effective nuclear charge.

  1. N vs. \( \text{N}^{3-} \): The nitride ion \( \text{N}^{3-} \) has gained three additional electrons compared to the neutral nitrogen atom. This increase in electron-electron repulsion causes the ion to be larger than the neutral atom.
  1. K vs. \( \text{K}^+ \): The potassium ion \( \text{K}^+ \) has lost an electron compared to the neutral potassium atom, resulting in a smaller ionic radius due to the reduced electron-electron repulsion and increased effective nuclear charge per electron.
  1. S vs. \( \text{S}^{2-} \): The sulfide ion \( \text{S}^{2-} \) has gained two additional electrons, making it larger than the neutral sulfur atom due to increased electron-electron repulsion.
  1. Cu vs. \( \text{Cu}^+ \) and \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \): The copper ions \( \text{Cu}^+ \) and \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \) have lost electrons compared to the neutral copper atom, with \( \text{Cu}^{2+} \) being smaller than \( \text{Cu}^+ \) due to the higher positive charge and greater effective nuclear charge per electron.

Therefore, the correct order by decreasing radii size is \( \text{N}^{3-} > \text{N} \).

A game is said to be fair if the expected value (after considering the cost) is 0. This means that in the long run, both the player and the “house” would expect to win nothing. If the value is positive, the game is in your favor. If the value is negative, the game is not in your favor. At a carnival, you pay $1 to choose a card from a standard deck. If you choose a red card, you double your money, but if you pick a black card, you do not get any. (A standard deck of cards has 52 cards. 26 of the cards are red.)

Calculating tax incidence Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola consumers a tax. Before the tax, 10,000 cases of cola were sold every week at a price of $5 per case. After the tax, 3,000 cases of cola are sold every week; consumers pay $8 per case (including the tax), and producers receive $3 per case. 1) The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $??? per case. 2) Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $??? per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ???$ per case. 3) True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been the same as if the tax had been levied on producers.
