Which of the following elements is most likely to form an ion that will then form an ionic bond with an ion of a Group 1A elemen
solniwko [45]
Group 1A (the alkali metals) almost always form cations (positive ions). They'd need anions (negative ions) to ionic bond with. Beryllium (Be) is group 1A already and forms Be+ cation. Bromine is a halogen, and forms Br-, an anion. Platinum is a metal, and usually won't ionic bond with anything. Francium is rare and highly radioactive, plus it so happens to be group 1A as well. Only bromine can form the anion that the group 1A cations need.

What is the difference between electronegativity and ionization energy
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

These properties are basically the inverse of each other.

Explanation:

  • Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract an electron and make it a part of its orbital.

        Ionization enthalpy, is the energy required to remove an electron from                        an atom.

  • More electronegative atoms have high ionization enthalpies If the energy required to remove an electron is less, i.e. the atom has more tendency to give electron, it would thus have less tendency to take electron.
  • Values and tendency of electronegativity in the periodic table: In general, the electronegativity of a non‐metal is  larger than that of metal. For the elements of one period the electronegativities increase from  left to right across the periodic table. For the elements of one main group the electronegativities  decrease from top to bottom across the periodic table. To the subgroup elements, there’s no  regular rule.
  • Values and tendency of ionization potential in the periodic table: The first ionization energy is the energy which is  required when a gaseous atom/ion loses an electron to form a gaseous +1 valence ion. The  energy which is required for a gaseous +1 valence ion to loose an electron to form a gaseous +2  valence ion, is called the second ionization energy of an element.  In general, the second ionization energy is higher than the first ionization energy of an element. The first ionization energies of the elements of one period increase from the left to the right  across the periodic table. According to the elements of main group, the first ionization energies  generally decreases from top to bottom across the periodic table.

A quantity of NaCl was dissolved in 100 cm of solution to obtain
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

2.93g

Explanation:first, let us calculate the number of mole of NaCl present in the solution. This is illustrated below:

Molarity = 0.5M

Volume = 100cm^3 = 100/1000 = 0.1L

Mole =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of NaCl = 0.5 x 0.1 = 0.05mole

Now we can obtain the mass of NaCl as follows:

Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Mole of NaCl = 0.05mol

Mass of NaCl =?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of NaCl = 0.05 x 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 2.93g
