In general, ionization energy will?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Bezzdna [24]3 years ago

Answer:

In general, the first ionization energy will increase upon moving left to right in a period and it will decrease from coming top to bottom in a group in a periodic table.

Explanation:

The ionization energy is defined as the amount of energy required to remove a valence electron from a gaseous atom or ion.

When we move inside a period from left to right, the atomic radius decreases and so the effective nuclear charge increases. Hence, the electrons are tightly held by nucleus which makes it difficult to remove the electron. Thus, the ionization energy increases along a period from left to right.

When we move down a group from top to bottom, the principal quantum number (number of shells) increases and so the distance between outer electrons and nucleus increases. The protons of the nucleus hold the core electrons more tightly. But, the core electrons repel the valence shell electrons.

Due to this screening effect, the outermost electrons experience less hold of nucleus which makes it easier to remove the electrons. Thus, the ionization energy decreases when coming down the group.

1. What are the differences between lonic and covalent bonds?
zaharov [31]

Answer: Ionic bonds result from transfer of electrons, whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing. ... Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature, resulting from that attraction of positive and negative ions that result from the electron transfer process; charge separation between covalently bonded atoms is less extreme.

Why is it important to have the correct bond angles of the different atoms and the shape of the molecule? (20 points NEED ANSWER
hjlf

It is important to have the correct bond angles of the different atoms and the shape of the molecule due to following reasons;

                  Among other properties the polarity of compounds mainly depend upon the shape and bond angles of that particular compound. For example, considering the molecule of water, we already know that it is a polar molecule with partially positive hydrogen atoms and partially negative oxygen atoms and acts as universal solvent. The bond angle in water is about 104.5° with a Bent geometry. Unlike carbon dioxide (CO₂) which has Linear structure with bond angle 180° and is non-polar in nature therefore, the bent geometry in water is responsible for the polarity.

                  Other properties which can also be predicted by predicting the bond angles along with molecular geometries are;

                                      i) Magnetism

                                      ii) Phase of matter

                                       iii) Color

                                      iv) Reactivity

                                       v) Biological activities <em>e.t.c</em>

In what way may drugs be used to affect neurotransmitters?
Orlov [11]
Drugs interfere with the way neurons send, receive, and process signals via neurotransmitters. Some drugs, such as marijuana and heroin, can activate neurons because their chemical structure mimics that of a natural neurotransmitter in the body. This allows the drugs to attach onto and activate the neurons. Although these drugs mimic the brain’s own chemicals, they don’t activate neurons in the same way as a natural neurotransmitter, and they lead to abnormal messages being sent through the network.

Other drugs, such as amphetamine or cocaine, can cause the neurons to release abnormally large amounts of natural neurotransmitters or prevent the normal recycling of these brain chemicals by interfering with transporters. This too amplifies or disrupts the normal communication between neurons.
