What happens when elements combine to form compounds?

Chemistry
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago
7 0
When the elements combine form compounds, they do it to become stable. They give and taker the outside electrons or by sharing outer ring electrons.

How do you write electron configurations in 2 steps?​
Galina-37 [17]

Explanation:

Electron configuration can be carried out in two steps which can be:

  • Sublevel notation
  • Shell notations.

In the sublevel notation, the sequence of filling electrons into the orbitals of the sublevels are guided by some principles:

  • the maximum number of electrons in the orbital of sublevels are two for s-sublevel, six for p-sublevel, ten for d-sublevel and fourteen for f-sublevel. This indicates that the maximum number of electrons in an orbital is two.
  • Aufbau's prinicple states that sublevel with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies.
  • Pauli exclusion principle states that no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of the four quantum numbers.
  • Hund's rule states that electrons go into degenerate orbitals singly first before pairing occurs.

Using the shell notation, numbers are used to denote the sum of electrons in all orbitals each energy level.

   For an atom of Be:

               Sublevel notation for the 4 electrons     1s²2s²

                        Shell notation                                    2,2

Other representation is using the electron dot structure.

Which atom has higher electron affinity F or I, Why?​
pshichka [43]
Down a group, electron affinity typically decreases. This is because the atomic radius increases down a group.
Fluorine, which is higher up the group then chlorine, has a lower electron affinity. This is because the electrons in the outermost shell of a fluorine atom are closer together.
The electron gained also feels a great amount of repulsion from the electrons originally in the outermost shell. Energy is required to keep the gained electron in the shell, causing fluorine to have a smaller electron affinity than chlorine.
Hope this helps :)

Copper is a good conductor of heat. This means that if you heat one end of a piece of copper, the other end will quickly reach the same temperature. Most metals are pretty good conductors; however, apart from silver, copper is the best.

Aluminum is an excellent heat and electricity conductor and in relation to its weight is almost twice as good a conductor as copper.

Glass is a very poor heat conductor. It has one of the lowest possible heat conduction a solid (without air trapped in it) can possibly have, this is mostly due to its lack of ordered crystal structure. Since it's an insulator, the electronic contribution to the thermal conductivity is very small.

Metals and stone are considered good conductors since they can speedily transfer heat, whereas materials like wood, paper, air, and cloth are poor conductors of heat. ... These include copper (92), iron (11), water (0.12), and wood (0.03).

Wood and Glass do not conduct heat well, aluminum is the best for him to choose because

aluminum conducted heat the fastest at an average of 14 seconds. ... Aluminum has the ability to absorb heat faster than copper, and when removed from the heat source, will cool faster because it is less dense than copper
