Answer: Bromide is many orders of magnitude better than fluoride in leaving group ability
Explanation:
As Size of an atom Increases, the Basicity Decreases this is because if we move downwards from the top of the periodic table to the bottom of the periodic table, the size of an atom increases. As size increases, basicity will decrease, meaning the element will be less likely to act as a base implying that the element will be less likely to share its electrons.
in the same vein. With an increase in size, basicity decreases, making the ability of the leaving group to leave increase to increase . This can be seen in the halogens going down the group from
F--- worst
Cl----fair
Br ----good
I-----excellent
with fluorine having the worst ability to leave than Bromine which is better in terms of the leaving group ability.
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The type of substances that has <span>chemical bonds that are not directional and valence electrons that move freely between the atoms are metals. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
A new material is formed in <span>result of a chemical change. Typically, the chemical changes always make the new material.</span><span />
Answer:
Take a look at the attachment below
Explanation:
Take a look at the periodic table. As you can see, Rubidium is the closest element to Cesium, and happens to have the closest boiling point to Cesium, with only a difference of about 30 degrees.
Respectively, you would think that fluorine should have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, considering it is the farthest away from the element out of the 4 given. This is not an actual rule, there are no fixed trends of boiling points in the periodic table, there are some but overall the trends vary. However in this case fluorine does have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, a difference of about 1,546.6 degrees.
<em>Hope that helps!</em>
