Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Explanation:
Electronegativity is a measure of how strongly atoms attract electrons to themselves.
Process
Look for the electronegativity of each element and compare.
a) Cl = 3.16 F = 3.98 Fluorine has a higher electronegativity
b) Se = 2.55 O = 3.44 Oxygen has a higher electronegativity
c) N = 3.04 As = 2.18 Nitrogen has a higher electronegativity
d) Na = 0.93 Mg = 1.31 Magnesium has a higher electronegativity
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The essence of chemical bonding is in order to attain minimum energy. The minimum energy state is the most stable state of a chemical system.
As the distance of separation between atoms decreases, the potential energy of the system decreases accordingly.
An optimum distance is reached when the two atoms attain the lowest potential energy. This is designated as the bond distance of the two atoms.
Hence two atoms have lower potential energy when bonded than when separated at large distance.
For the answer to the questions above,
a) Ag2CO3(s) => Ag2O(s)+CO2(g)
<span>b) Cl2(g)+2(KI)(aq) => I2(s)+2(KCl)(aq) (coefficients are for balanced equation) </span>
<span>net ionic is Cl2(g)+2I- => I2(s)+2Cl-(aq) </span>
<span>c) I2(s)+3(Cl2)(g)=>2(ICl3)
</span>I hope I helped you with your problem
D) basic ions contain some H+ ions
