Here I found some info at Yahoo answers: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090119191941AAB7oAb
The more electronegative an atom is the more unwilling it is to lose its electrons in a compound. If you do try to take a very EN atom away from a compound you'll need to apply a lot of energy for that to happen. I can give an example of a single atom though 

<span>Cl has 7 valence electron filled and every atom wants to be like nobles (noble gases), so it's not going to give an electron away b/c it's really close to being like a noble gas. Noble gases are the most stable atoms, which is why I say stability counts.</span>

Write 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation with 4 significant figures.
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The number 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation is 1.0847x10^{7}

Explanation:

Scientific notation is an easy form to write long numbers and it is commonly used in the scientific field. To write a long number in a shorter way it is necessary to 'move' the decimal point to the left the number of positions that are necessary until you get a unit. Then you write the number and multiplied it by 10 raised to the number of positions you moved the decimal point. In this case, it is necessary to move the decimal point 7 positions so, we multiply the number by 10 raised to 7.

Of the following gases which will have the lowest rate of effusion at a given temperature?A. SO3B. CH4C. NH3D. HBr E. HCl
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: HBr has the lowest rate of effusion at a given temperature.

Explanation: The effusion rate usually increases with increase in temperature because the kinetic energy of the gaseous molecules increases. But it was not true for gases having heavier mass. This was explained by Graham's Law.

Graham's Law states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight.

(\text{Rate of effusion})_A\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Mol. mass}_A}}

We are given different gases with different Molecular masses. The gas having larger Molecular mass will have the lowest rate of effusion.

Mol. Mass of SO_3 = 80 g/mol

Mol. Mass of CH_4 = 16 g/mol

Mol. Mass of NH_3 = 17 g/mol

Mol. Mass of HBr = 81 g/mol

Mol. Mass of HCl = 36 g/mol

As, Mol. mass of HBr is the highest, so its rate of effusion will be the lowest.
