Answer:
C. The first ionization energy decreases because the outermost
electron is farther from the nucleus.
Explanation:
Ionization energy trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.
Ionization energy trend along period:
As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.
Answer:
Lewis structure in attachment.
Explanation:
Atoms of elements in and beyond the third period of the periodic table form some compounds in which more than eight electrons surround the central atom. In addition to the 3s and 3p orbitals, elements in the third period also have 3d orbitals that can be used in bonding. These orbitals enable an atom to form an <u>expanded octet</u>.
The central Xe atom in the XeF₄ molecule has <u>two</u> unbonded electron pairs and <u>four</u> bonded electron pairs in its valence shell.
It is insoluble. Because one of the substances are polar and the other is non-polar.
Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Braising means first of all fry a dish slightly and then cook it slowly in a closed vessel or dish. The vessel is close so that the liquid present inside it does not evaporates.
Also, Braising is done to mix the flavors of different liquids or spices appropriately.
Thus, we can conclude that as a cooking method, braising is valued for its ability to retain flavor.
Density is a physical property. It's measured and doesn't change the object chemically.
