This is an exception to the general electronegativity trend. It can be explained by looking at the electron configurations of both elements.

When you remove an electron from beryllium, you are taking away an electron from the 2s orbital. When you remove an electron from boron, you are taking an electron from the 2p orbital. The 2p electrons have more energy than the 2s, so it is easier to remove them as they can more strongly resist the effective nuclear charge of the nucleus.
I’m not an expert and I haven’t taken chemistry in like a year but i believe you use stoichiometry to do this equation. It should look something like this.
There’s no other degenerate s orbital because the there can be only one s orbital for any value of n.
Answer:
model of mountain formation
Explanation:
The formation of mountains takes millions of years. This formation of mountains involves so much processes that do not occur quickly.
Hence, a model that can adequately show something that happens very slowly is the model for the formation of mountains.
They speed up reactions by lowering activation energy. Many enzymes change shape when substrates bind.
