Atomic Radii

It is generally agreed that the total distance between an atom’s nucleus and the outermost orbital of an electron is referred to as the atomic radius. In simpler terms, it can be defined as something akin to the radius of a circle, where the nucleus is located in the centre of the circle and the […]

Electric Field

An electric field is a physical field associated with each point present in the space and surrounds the charges that may be present in any form. An electric field has the ability to exert force either by repulsion or by attraction on all the surrounding charged particles. The magnitude as well as the direction of
