Why are elements with high electron affinities also the most electronegative?

Chemistry

Explanation:

Electron affinity is the energy released in adding an electron to a neutral atom in the gas phase. This is a measure of the readiness of an atom to gain an electron. When an atom gains an electron readily, it has a high electron affinity.

  • The electronegativity is a property that combines the ability of its atom to lose and gain electrons.
  • It is expressed as a number that describes the relative tendency with which the atoms of the element attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

Therefore , we see that an atom with a high electronegativity will have a very high affinity to gain electrons. It will want to attract electrons by all means to itself.

D. Even though the temperature is the same, container B has more thermal energy, since it has more liquid than container A.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Whenever there is an increase in the volume of the pink liquid, it is due to the increase in temperature.

When the temperature increases, the molecules move farther apart as much as possible.

When the molecules moves apart from each other and collide with each other, so that its kinetic energy also increases, So thermal energy of the container B is more compared to the container A.

I need help with the question in the photo!!
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

a semi-crystalline structure is formed, which holds the water molecules apart, making ice less dense than liquid water, such that it floats. This means that it insulates the water beneath, allowing organisms in the liquid water to survive. Cohesion is the tendency of molecules within a substance to ‘ stick together

Which of these would most likely be one of the final steps when performing a strong acid-base titration? Prepare the burette. Re
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer is: Prepare to measure pH change.

For example for strong acid-base titration, sodium hydoxide and hydrochloric can be used.

Balanced chemical reaction: HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O.

In this reaction pH of equivalence point will be always 7.

Equivalence point is the point which there is stoichiometrically equivalent amounts of acid and base.  

Chemist can draw pH curve (graph showing the change in pH of a solution, which is being titrated) for titration and determine equivalence point.  

Near equivalence point indicator should change color, so we must pick indicator who change color near pH of equivalence point.
