Complete the sentences to identify the trend in first ionization energies as one proceeds down the group 7A elements and explain
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a)decrease

b)increase

c)smaller

d)smaller

Explanation:

Ionization energy decreases down the group due to increase in the atomic radius. The distance between the outermost electron and the nucleus increases hence the nuclear attraction for the outermost electrons become smaller and the ionization energy also become smaller as electrons are now easily removed from the outermost shell.

Hence the group of answer choices provided above.

Why do some elements form double and triple bonds during bonding
jekas [21]

Explanation:

Elements need a total of eight electrons to gain stability and look like a noble gas. So, they sometimes need sharing of two, four or even six electrons to complete their octate. So, they form double and triple covalent bonds. One more  the reason is the  interaction between the p orbitals of the combining atoms. for example  A double bond, as in ethene H2C=CH2, arises from one combination of the s orbitals and one combination of the p_y orbitals.

1 It was found that 4n atoms of metal x
raketka [301]

Answer:

C 108

Explanation:

1 It was found that 4n atoms of metal x

weigh 501.6 g. The relative atomic mass

of X is 209. If n atoms of another metal,

Y, weigh 65.00 g, what is the relative

atomic mass of metal Y?

A 27 B 52 C 108 D 137

if 4n atoms of x weigh 501.6 gm, the n atoms weigh 501.6/4 = 125.4 gms

since the atomic mass is 209, then 6.022 X10^23 atom weigh 209

the ratio of 125.4 to 209 is

125.4/Y =0.6

therefor n is the number of atom in 0.6 moles

if metal Y has the same, number of atoms "n"  and weighs 65 gm

then then the relative atomic mass is

65/0.6 =108

so the answer is

C 108
