Answer:
C, increases/decreases
Explanation:
As you move down a group on the periodic table, the electronegativity of an element decreases because the increased number of energy levels puts the outer electrons very far away from the pull of the nucleus.
Answer:
38.2836 kJ
Explanation:
Mass = 91.5g
Initial Temperature = melting point = 0 C = 273 K (upon converting to kelvin)
Final Temperature = Boiling point = 100 C = 373 K
Heat = ?
They are related by the equation;
H = mCΔT
ΔT = Final - Initial Temperature = 373 - 273 = 100 K
C = specific heat capacity = 4.184 J /gK
H = 91.5 * 4.184 * 100
H = 38283.6 J
To convert to kilojoules, divide by 1000. This leaves us with;
H = 38283.6 / 1000 = 38.2836 kJ
The correct answer is
B.The elements all have three valence electrons
