Which element has the highest first electron affinity? which element has the highest first electron affinity? te ba xe cs?

Chemistry

Savatey [412]3 years ago
4 0
Electron affinity is the energy released when an electron is added to the gaseous atom or ion.
Electron affinity increases by moving from left to right in periodic table and decreases by moving from up to down.
So the correct answer is Te
Xe: being as noble gas it is unacceptable to gain an electron
The values of electron affinity for these elements:
Ba (13.9 kJ/mol) - Te (190.1 kJ/mol) - Xe (-80 kJ/mol) - Cs (45.5 kJ/mol)

Andre45 [30]
Answer: Metals bond with metals.  
Explanation: A metallic bond is a sharing of electrons between many atoms of a metal element. Metallic bonding is when positive ions (metals) are in a 'sea of negative electrons'. The electrons are delocalised, which means they can move around easily and carry charge, and this enables it to conduct electricity, even in a solid state. The big pool of electrons is like a free-for-all in that any valence electron can move to any atom within the material.

A sample of salt (sodium chloride) is placed on the tip of a platinum wire. When the sample is heated on blue flame the flame tu
gulaghasi [49]
So platinum is a transition metal. In general transition metals are reducers, which means they can give the electrons they have, to the sodium atoms. Also in chemistry we look at sub orbitals rather that shells(2,8,8). So due to the energy from heat, the d orbital split as electrons move to a higher energy level. Some of the electrons are given to the sodium ions and therefore the flame changes colour to yellow. 
The excitation of the electrons is caused by them getting energy and so moving up an energy level. This energy is released and the electron returns to it's original state. The energy released, however, does not release in the same direction, but in different/various directions. Therefore the colour of the light changes as some energy is released in the surrounding.
