Answer:
O, N, C, H
Explanation:
Electronegativity of an element is the property that combines the ability of its atom to lose or gain electrons. It measures the relative tendency with which the atoms of the element attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.
On the periodic table, Electronegativity increases across the period but decreases down a group.
To solve the given problem, let us use thE Pauling's table of electronegativities to compare the electronegativities of the elements.
On the table:
C = 2.5
H = 2.1
O = 3.5
N = 3.0
In terms of decreasing electronegativities, the atoms are arranged as:
O N C H
Answer:
1) B
2) D
3) A
4) Ga
5) K
6)Po
7) Atomic size increases down the group
8) B<Al<Ga<In<Tl
9)Se<C<Ga
10) ionization energy is the energy required to remove electrons from the outermost shell of an atom.
Explanation:
In the periodic table, the properties of elements reoccur ''periodically'' throughout the table, hence the name 'periodic table'.
Ionization energy increases across the period hence the noble gas He has the highest ionization energy.
Since ionization energy increases across the period, group 1 elements possess the lowest ionization energy.
Since atomic size increases down the group and decreases across the period, gallium is smaller than indium, potassium is smaller than caesium, polonium is smaller than titanium and iodine is larger than bromine.
This explanation above justifies the order of increasing atomic radius of group 13 elements shown in answer number 8 above.
Since atomic size decreases across the period, the order of increasing atomic size shown in answer number 9 above is correct.
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove electrons from the outermost shell of an atom.
