Neon, Ne, would have the highest ionization energy because it has a high effective nuclear charge and small radius.

Answer:

D. Neon (Ne), because it has a high effective nuclear charge and small radius

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from the valence orbital.

Chlorine (Cl) and fluorine (F) are halogens which have a general valence configuration of ns²np⁵ and are highly electronegative

Lithium (Li) is an alkali metal with a valence configuration of ns¹ and has a tendency to lose electrons readily

Neon (Ne) is a noble gas with a valence configuration of ns²np⁶. Here the outer shells have a complete octet and stable configuration which makes it difficult to remove electrons. In addition the high nuclear charge and small radius of Ne results in a strong force of attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons. Therefore, Ne would have the highest ionization energy value.

A molecular covalent substance (such as co2) has a low melting point because the covalent bonds that hold the molecules together
Leona [35]

A molecular covalent substance (such as co2) has a low melting point because the covalent bonds that hold the molecules together are weak and do not require much energy to break:- False.

What are covalent bonds ?

An electron transfer that leads to the formation of electron pairs between atoms is known as a covalent bond. When atoms share electrons, a stable balance of the repulsive and attractive forces among them is known as covalent bonding. These electron pairs are also known as bonds or shared pairs.

It is a molecular compound, which is a mixture of at least two atoms—the smallest building blocks of matter—joined by a covalent bond. These atoms are joined by a covalent bond, which is formed when electrons are shared.

The four fundamental forces are arranged in the increasing order of their relative strength.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is - both act only between non-atomic particles.

Explanation:

The decreasing order of their relative strength is - the strong force, electromagnetism, weak force, gravity.

so, A would be here = gravity

B would be  = weak force

C  would be = strong force

The weak and strong forces both are fundamental forces that act on sub-atomic particles only such as quarks.
