1 answer:
Papessa [141]3 years ago

Answer:

a)- Se, S, O

b)- Na, P, Cl

c)- S, Cl, F

d)- P, N, O

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by looking at the Periodic Table. In a group, electronegativity increases from bottom to top; whereas in periods it increases from left to right.

Thus, we order the elements from lower to higher electronegativity as follows:

a. Se, O, S ⇒ order: Se, S, O

Because they are all in the same group. Se is near the bottom, followed by S and O is at the top.

b. P, Na, Cl ⇒ order: Na, P, Cl

They are in the same period. Na is at the left, followed by P and Cl is nearest the right.

c. Cl, S, F ⇒ order: S, Cl, F

P and Cl are in the same period, and P is at the left, so it has the lowest electronegativity. F is in the same group of Cl, but at the top. F has the highest electronegativity.

d. O, P, N ⇒ order: P, N, O

N and P are in the same group, but P is at the bottom so it has the lower electronegativity. N and O are in the same period, but O is at the right, so it is the most electronegative.

Atoms of what class of elements are used to absorb electrons in electron-dense stains?
lesantik [10]

The elements of heavy metals are used to absorb electrons in electron-dense stains.

<h3>What are heavy metals?</h3>

A heavy metals are generally defined as metals with relatively high densities, atomic weight and atomic number.

They toxic and poisonous in nature. They occurs naturally and are very essential to life.

Arsenic, cadmium, lead, copper, nickel and mercury are the most commonly used heavy metals.

Electron staining means to absorb heavy metals of high scattering power to biological specimens which exhibit a small scattering power for electrons.

Thus, the elements of heavy metals are used to absorb electrons in electron-dense stains.

Draw Au3N as a picture of atoms
Shkiper50 [21]

The picture of Au₃N is attached below.

The first part of the picture shows the formation of Au and N ions.

Formation of Au⁺¹ :

                            As Gold has one valence electron in 6s¹ therefore, it will loose it to form Au⁺¹. In case of Au₃N three atoms of Au looses three electrons to form three Au⁺¹ ions.

Formation of N⁻³ :

                            As Nitrogen has 5 valence elctrions therefore, it will gain three electrons that lost by Au to form Nitrite (i.e. N⁻³)

Formation of Au₃N:

                                Three cations of Au⁺ combines with one anion of N⁻³ to form a neutral ionic compound i.e. Au₃N as shown in second part of the picture.
