Why is it harder to remove an inner shell electron than a valence electron from an atom

Chemistry

I should think because the valence bonds want to escape and bond more whereas the inner layers are for the most part stable

They're closer to the nuclei....ionization energy is higher. having inner shells and a valence only means that the inner shells are conpletely filled and stable.
valence electrons are easily removed only if the number of electrons is =<3 otherwise, they gain rlectrons.

Relate the intermolecular forces in hydrocarbons to their physical properties and uses
DENIUS [597]

The physical properties of alkenes and alkynes are generally similar to those of alkanes or cycloalkanes with equal numbers of carbon atoms. Alkynes have higher boiling points than alkanes or alkenes, because the electric field of an alkyne, with its increased number of weakly held π electrons, is more easily distorted, producing stronger attractive forces between molecules.

How many grams are in 4.5 moles of NaF?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

3139542g

Explanation:

That's because if you talk about

What is Lewis symbol for K+
Alexxx [7]

Lewis symbol for K+ is given by a dot and K.

<h3>Meaning of Lewis symbol</h3>

Lewis symbols can be defined as a symbol the is used in describing the valence electron configurations of an atom ions.

A Lewis symbol consists of the symbol of the element and then surrounded by one dot for each of its valence electrons.

In conclusion, Lewis symbol for K+ is given by a dot and K.

Are these synthesis decomposition single replacement or double replacement?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1. Synthesis

2. Decomposition

3. Single replacement

4. Synthesis

5. Decomposition

6. Synthesis

Explanation:

Kind of a hard picture to look at but let me define each chemical reaction:

Synthesis:

a + b ---> ab   In synthesis elements/compounds come together to form new                compounds

Decomposition:

ab ---> a + b   In decomposition a compound breaks down to form 2 elements/compounds

Single replacement:

a + bc ---> b + ac   In a single replacement one element/compound takes the place of another element/compound.

Double replacement

ab + cd ---> ad + bc In a double replacement 2 compounds exchange different elements/compounds.

Now, let's go through the assignment

1. P + O2 --> P4O10  This is a synthesis reaction because the two elements (P and O) came together to form one compound.

2. HgO ---> Hg + O2  This is a decomposition reaction because HgO broke into separate elements Hg and O.

3. Cl2 + NaBr ---> NaCl + Br2  This is a single replacement reaction because chlorine (Cl) replaced the spot of bromine (Br) to bond with sodium (Na).

4.  Mg + O2 ---> MgO  This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (Mg and O) came together to form one compound.

5. Al2O3 ---> Al + O2  This is a decomposition reactions because Al2O3 broke into separate elements Al and O.

6. H2 + N2 ---> NH3  This is a synthesis reaction because two elements (H and N) came together to form one compound.
