Answer: A: high ionization energies; high electron affinitlies.
Explanation: Covalent bonds are basically about sharing of electrons between two atoms to achieve that stable structure. They are formed between two atoms when both have similar tendencies to attract electrons to themselves (i.e., when both atoms have identical or fairly similar ionization energies and electron affinities). Covalent bonding usually occurs between two non-metals.
For effective and proper bonding, the two atoms involved in the covalent bonding exercise should be small and hungry for electrons. This is to enable the nuclei of both atoms to effectively attract and hold the shared electron(s) in place; hence, the need for high ionization energies & high electron affinities for a more effective covalent bonding.
Gallum: Z = 31
electron configuration: [Ar] 4s^2 3d10 4s2 4p1
Highest energy electron: 4p1
Quantum numbers:
n = 4, because it is the shell number
l = 1, it corresponds to type p orbital
ml = may be -1, or 0, or +1, depending on space orientation, they correspond to px, py, pz
ms = may be -1/2 or +1/2, this is the spin number.
The answer is _Dissolving_.
Hope tis helps
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Option B is the correct answer. When you add 7 in front of the O2 in the left side, and then you add 4 and 6 in front of NO2 and H2O respectively, the number of oxygen atoms is the same in both sides.
