The atom with the strongest attraction for electrons in bond formation is the atom with the most positive charge since an electron has a negative charge. Unlike attracts like. Among these, Sr and ba has 2+ and has the greatest charge but ba<span> has a stronger electron affinity (decreasing from top to bottom). answer is barium.</span>
Explanation:
It is more difficult to remove electrons from the second shell or energy level because of the imbalance between the positive nuclear charge and the remaining electrons.
- The amount of energy required to remove electrons in ground state of an atom is the ionization energy.
- The first ionization energy is the energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electron of an atom in the gas phase in ground state.
- The second energy has a greater nuclear pull as it is closer to the nucleus.
- Both potassium and silicon have the same number of energy levels.
Answer:
Kinetic energy is the energy of the motion of objects that are attached together.
Potassium Iodide have a lot of strong bonds which requires a very high temperature (high energy) to break them and change into a different state of matter.
