Electronegativity increases as the size of the atom increases. a. True b. False

Chemistry
1 answer:
stiv31 [10]3 years ago
5 0
B. False. Electronegativity is the property of an atom or element to attract electrons during a chemical reaction. If you look at the periodic trend for electronegativity you see Flourine has the highest electronegativity and Francium is the lowest. However, Francium has the largest atomic radius and Fluorine has the smallest (aside from Hydrogen and Helium). So your statement is false. The relationship between atomic radius and electronegativity is inversely proportional so a true statement would be: As atomic radius increases, electronegativity decreases.

2 characteristics and 2 differences for spiral and elliptical galaxies
Lerok [7]
Spiral galaxies have three main components: a bulge, disk, and halo (see right). The bulge is a spherical structure found in the center of the galaxy. This feature mostly contains older stars. The disk is made up of dust, gas, and younger stars. The disk forms arm structures. Our Sun is located in an arm of our galaxy, the Milky Way. The halo of a galaxy is a loose, spherical structure located around the bulge and some of the disk. The halo contains old clusters of stars, known as globular clusters<span>.

Elliptical galaxies are shaped like a spheriod, or elongated sphere. In the sky, where we can only see two of their three dimensions, these galaxies look like elliptical, or oval, shaped disks. The light is smooth, with the surface brightness decreasing as you go farther out from the center. Elliptical galaxies are given a classification that corresponds to their elongation from a perfect circle, otherwise known as their ellipticity. The larger the number, the more elliptical the galaxy is. So, for example a galaxy of classification of E0 appears to be perfectly circular, while a classification of E7 is very flattened. The elliptical scale varies from E0 to E7. Elliptical galaxies have no particular axis of rotation.

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>C) How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion? </em></u>

Explanation:

<em>The most relevant question to ask regarding this change</em> must take into account the physical knowledge about matter.

When matter changes from<em> liquid </em>state to <em>gaseous</em> state, a physical change called evaporation, the particles (molecules or atoms) of the <em>pure substance </em>will separate from each other, take up more space and move faster.

<em>Condensation</em> is the opposite to evaporation, thus the option A) is not the most relevant question.

<em>The charge of the particles</em> does not change; so the option B) is not relevant at all.

The particles should gain energy from the surroundings to <em>increase</em> their <em>motion</em> (kinetic energy) when they pass from liquid state, where they move slower, to gas state, where they move faster. Hence, the option<em> C), How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion?</em> , is totally relevant.

Since this is an increase in the <em>kinetic energy of the molecules</em>, the option D) is not relevant.
