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.

Calculate the binding energy per nucleon of the helium nucleus 52he. express your answer in millions of electron volts to four s
Vitek1552 [10]
The main formula is given by Eb/nucleon = Eb/ mass of nucleid
as for <span>52He, the mass is 5
so by applying Einstein's formula Eb=DmC², Eb=</span><span>binding energy
</span><span>52He-----------> 2 x 11p + 3 x10n is the equation bilan
</span>so Dm=2 mp + (5-2)mn-mnucleus, mp=mass of proton=1.67 10^-27 kg
                                                        mn=mass of neutron=<span>1.67 10^-27 kg
                                                        </span><span>m nucleus= 5
Dm= 2x</span>1.67 10^-27 kg+ 3x<span>1.67 10^-27 kg-5=  - 4.9 J
Eb= </span> - <span>4.9 J x c²= -4.9 x 9 .10^16= - 45 10^16 J
so the answer is Eb /nucleon = Eb/5= -9.10^16 J, but 1eV=1.6 . 10^-19 J
so </span><span>-9.10^16 J/ 1.6 10^-19=  -5.625 10^35 eV

the final answer is </span><span>Eb /nucleon </span><span>=  -5.625 x10^35 eV</span>

What is the first law of conservation of energy? How is the law applicable to the earths energy balance
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

First law of thermodynamic state that energy is always conserved, in other word, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

This means that energy can only transfer from one source to another.

For example, the electricity we used to power our phone didn't come from nowhere.

We charge our phone using the energy from the electricity from the outlet.

The outlet gets its energy from the power plant, who generated that energy from burning coal.

The coal they burned got their energy while they were alive as plants.

The plants got their energy from the sun.

The sun got its energy from other cosmic stuff and so on...

My point is that the energy we use will always cycle around. It doesn't come from thin air and it doesn't disappear into thin air either. This help keeps things balance because if energy is created out of thin air then the earth might just blow up. If energy gets erased into thin air then there'll be nothing to fuel life.
