Chemistry
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
4 0
Answer: This option is incorrect: <span>B. Covalent compounds are held together by much stronger interparticle forces than are ionic compounds.

Justification:

Ionic bonds, held by ionic compounds, are much stronger than covalent bonds, held by covalent compounds.

In ionic bonds one element yields one or more electrons forming a cation (a positively charged ion) and the other element accepts the electrons forming an anion (a negatively charged ion).

The anion and the cation are electrostatically atracted by each other. This electrostatic atraction force, named ionic bond, is very strong.

As result of this, the ionic compounds form strong crystals with high boiling and fusion points. A good example of this the sodium chloride, formed by the union of cation Na(+) and anion Cl(-).

The covalent bonds are result of sharing electrons and do not form ions. This bond is weaker than the ionic bond.

J. Explain how an atom's valence electron configuration determines its place on the periodic table.​
Darya [45]

Answer:

Elements having same valence electrons are placed in <u>same group.</u>

Explanation:

First, let's start with some basic concepts of modern periodic table:

1. Modern Periodic table : It is the arrangement of element in the increasing order of their atomic numbers

The Modern periodic table is divided into Periods and groups .

Periods : These are the horizontal rows. There are seven periods in the periodic table . Period 1 has 2 element. Period two and three has 8 elements , period 4 and 5 have 18 elements and the period 6 and 7 have 32 elements.

Same period have same number of atomic orbital(Shell)

Group : The group is the vertical columns . There are 18 groups in the modern periodic table.Those element which have same group number will also have same number of electron in their outermost shell. The number of electron in the outermost shell determines the valency of the element.

So, elements showing same valency are placed in same group.

All alkali are place in group 1 and have 1 valance electron in the outermost shell

Answer: 2. with two symmetrical shells - mirror images of each other.

the term "crinoid" means: 6. phylum where starfish and sea urchins belong

4. lived inside their shells: 1. exoskeletons are made up of this material

7. multicellular organisms that often live in colonies:  8. individuality of coral is called

Explanation:

Crinoid is a term that can be used to describe the radial symmetry of animals that have oral (side of mouth) and aboral surfaces (opposite to the mouth). It is characterized by the mouth at the top surface and surrounded by the arms for feeding it. This is a characteristic feature of animals like star fish and sea urchins and echinoderm animals.

The exoskeleton is a protective shell which protect the animal from the external environment like water, sunlight and predation.

The multicellular organisms that live in the colonies they form coral reef and individually the are called the coral polyp.
