Which statement applies to electronegativity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
densk [106]3 years ago
7 0

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.

This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.

This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is Option A.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

One of the main uses of the cathode ray tube is in the Cathode  ray oscilloscope

Explanation:

Cathode rays are produced when a gas in an evacuated glass at very low pressure and high pressure breaks up into positive and negative ions. the negative ions move towards the anode(positive electrode) while the positive ions move towards the cathode(negative electrode), and there they knock off electrons (which are known as cathode rays) from the metal plate of the cathode.

Cathode ray tubes are mainly used in oscilloscopes, television picture tubes and in computer screens.

The cathode ray oscilloscope is used in a.c. and d.c. voltage measurements, observation of waveforms, time measurements, etc.

Why neon is special from other chemical elements​
kupik [55]
Noble gases react very unwillingly, because the outermost shell of electrons orbiting the nucleus is full, giving these gases no incentive to swap electrons with other elements. As a result, there are very few compounds made with noble gases. Like its noble gas comrades, neon is odorless and colorless.

Which of the following is not included in John Dalton's modern theory of the atom?
Akimi4 [234]

The answer for the following question is option "C".

Option C is not included in the John Dalton's modern theory of an atom.

  • "It states atoms of different elements combine to form new compound" but not new elements

Explanation:

According to John's Dalton's modern theory of an atom:

1. All matter is composed of atoms.

2. Atoms cannot be created,destroyed or subdivided in the ordinary chemical reactions.

3. Atoms of one element differ in the properties from atoms of an another element.

(i.e.)Each and every atom of the element has its own unique properties of their own.

4. Atoms of one  element combine with the atoms of another element to <u>form new compound.</u>

5. Atoms that make up an element are identical to each other.

Phosphate buffers are commonly used in biological research. If a small amount of strong acid is added to a buffer solution that
lozanna [386]

Answer:

A) [H3PO4] will increase, [KH2PO4] will decrease, and pH will slightly decrease.

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution which resists changes to its pH when a small amount of acid or base is added to it.

Buffers consist of a weak acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A–) or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Weak acids and bases do not completely dissociate in water, and instead exist in solution as an equilibrium of dissociated and undissociated species. When a small quantity of a strong acid is added to a buffer solution, the conjugate base, A-, reacts with the hydrogen ions from the added acid to form the weak acid and a salt thereby removing the extra hydrogen ions from the solution and keeping the pH of the solution fairly constant. On the other hand, if a small quantity of a strong base is added to the buffer solution, the weak acid dissociates further to release hydrogen ions which then react with the hydroxide ions of the added base to form water and the conjugate base.

For example, if a small amount of strong acid is added to a buffer solution that is 0.700 M H3PO4 and 0.700 M KH2PO4, the following reaction is obtained:

KH₂PO₄ + H+ ----> K+ + H₃PO₄

Therefore, [H₃PO₄] will increase, [KH₂PO₄] will decrease, and pH will slightly decrease.:
