I think that it is D because the higher the molecular mass, the higher it's boiling point. I hope that helped:) Bye!
Answer:
Francium (Fr)
Explanation:
From the given choices, francium will have the lowest ionization energy.
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron within an atom.
The magnitude of the ionization energy depends on the characteristics of the atom in relation to its nuclear charge, atomic radius, stability etc.
- Generally on the periodic table, ionization energy increases from left to right on the table
- As you go from metals to non-metals and to gases, the value of the ionization energy increases steadily.
- Down the group, the value reduces.
- Since Francium is the most metallic of all the given choices, it has the highest ionization energy.
The number of valence electrons of an element can be determined by the periodic table group (vertical column) in which the element is categorized
Solid (ice caps)
Liquid (oceans, rivers, lakes, etc)
Gas (clouds)
The answer to this question would be: <span>1) Electrons occupy regions of space

In plum pudding model, the atoms are drawn as pudding and the negative particle is spread around the pudding. In this model, the electron is spread but not moving in orbit. Rutherford model that comes afterward is the one that says most of the atoms is empty space.</span>
