<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.
This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.
This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.
Thus, the correct answer is Option A.
Silicon has 14 protons Potassium has 19 electrons The neutrons are equal to the mass number minus the atomic number. Or the big number minus the small number on the periodic table. hydrogen 1 does not have a neutron.
iron =56 -26 for 30 neutrons in the nucleus
Chlorine 17 protons and 17 electrons. 18 or 19 neutrons on average.
a) NH₃ molecules have stronger intermolecular attractions than CH₄ molecules.
Explanation:
Ammonia molecules have stronger intermolecular attractions compared to methane.
Ammonia molecules have london dispersion forces and hydrogen bonds between their molecules.
Methane molecules have only london dispersion forces in their structure.
- hydrogen bonds are very strong attractive forces between molecules in which the hydrogen of a molecule is attracted by a more electronegative atom of another usually oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.
- London dispersion forces are weak forces of attraction between heteronuclear atoms.
