Chemistry

Answer:

Phosphorus is more electronegative than hydrogen

Explanation:

Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons towards itself thereby making a molecule to be polar. The Pauling scale is the most commonly used to measure electronegativity. Fluorine (the most electronegative element) is assigned a value of 4.0 on the Pauling's scale, and values range down to caesium and francium which are the least electronegative elements.

Electronegativity increases from left to right across the periodic table (across the period) hence, phosphorus is far more electronegative than hydrogen. Being more electronegative than hydrogen, phosphorus attracts the bonding electron pair of the P-H bond closer to itself than hydrogen. Since the electrons of the bond are closer to phosphorus than hydrogen, the phosphorus atom acquires a partial negative charge while the hydrogen atom acquires a partial positive charge.

Can some please answer these two questions?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

1. Mass of potassium (K) = 203.32 g

2. Number of mole of As = 7.53 moles

Explanation:

1. Determination of the mass of potassium (K)

Molar mass of K = 39.1 g/mol

Number of mole of K = 5.2 moles

Mass of K =.?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

5.2 = mass of K / 39.1

Cross multiply

Mass of K = 5.2 × 39.1

Mass of potassium (K) = 203.32 g

2. Determination of the number of mole of Arsenic (As)

Molar mass of As = 74.92 g/mol

Mass of As = 563.9 g

Number of mole of As =.?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Number of mole of As = 563.9 / 74.92

Number of mole of As = 7.53 moles

How many groups and periods are present in the periodic table?​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are seven periods in the periodic table, with each one beginning at the far left. A new period begins when a new principal energy level begins filling with electrons. Period 1 has only two elements (hydrogen and helium), while periods 2 and 3 have 8 elements. Periods 4 and 5 have 18 elements.

Give the electron configuration for F.
postnew [5]

Answer:

1s² 2s² 2p⁵

Explanation:

The elements of group 17 are called halogens. These are six elements Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Astatine. Halogens are very reactive these elements can not be found free in nature. Their chemical properties are resemble greatly with each other. As we move down the group in periodic table size of halogens increases that's way fluorine is smaller in size as compared to other halogens elements. Their boiling points also increases down the group which changes their physical states. i.e fluorine is gas while iodine is solid.

Properties of fluorine:

1. it is yellow in color.

2. it is flammable gas.

3. it is highly corrosive.

4. fluorine has pungent smell.

5. its reactions with all other elements are very vigorous except neon, oxygen, krypton and helium.  

6. Its atomic number of 9.

7. its atomic mass is 18.99 amu.

Electronic configuration:

₉F = 1s² 2s² 2p⁵
