Describe electronegativity, and explain the trend of electronegativity in the Periodic Table

Physics
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the property of an atom that attracts the shared pair of an electron to itself. There is a trend in the periodic table.

While moving down in a group, the electronegativity decreases. This is due to the reason that as we move down the number of shells added and so the electron become very far from the pull of the nucleus.

As we move across a period the electronegativity increases. This is because of the no. of charge on the nucleus increase.

The driver of a car travels at 90 km / h, observes some children playing on the road 50 m away, and applies the brakes, managing
Orlov [11]

Answer:

13,750 N

Yes

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 4 s

Find: a and Δx

a = Δv / Δt

a = (0 m/s − 25 m/s) / (4 s)

a = -6.25 m/s²

F = ma

F = (2200 kg) (-6.25 m/s²)

F = -13,750 N

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

Δx = ½ (0 m/s + 25 m/s) (4 s)

Δx = 50 m

How do quantum numbers relate to electrons?<br> please explain?
alukav5142 [94]
Quantum numbers<span> allow us to both simplify and dig deeper into electron configurations. Electron configurations allow us to identify energy level, subshell, and the number of electrons in those locations. If you choose to go a bit further, you can also add in x,y, or z subscripts to describe the exact orbital of those subshells (for example </span><span>2<span>px</span></span>). Simply put, electron configurations are more focused on location of electrons then anything else. 
<span>
Quantum numbers allow us to dig deeper into the electron configurations by allowing us to focus on electrons' quantum nature. This includes such properties as principle energy (size) (n), magnitude of angular momentum (shape) (l), orientation in space (m), and the spinning nature of the electron. In terms of connecting quantum numbers back to electron configurations, n is related to the energy level, l is related to the subshell, m is related to the orbital, and s is due to Pauli Exclusion Principle.</span>

An astronaut takes an object to the moon where there is less gravity. Explain how the mass and weight of the object on the moon
alexandr1967 [171]
The mass of the object will remain the same rather it's on the moon or on the Earth and even in other places. But the weight will change on the moon, so its weight will be different from the one it had on Earth
