<span>The hybridization of bromine must be sp^3.</span>
Answer:
Cooling a substance causes molecules to slow down and get slightly closer together, occupying a smaller volume that results in an increase in density. Hot water is less dense and will float on room-temperature water. <u>Cold water is more dense and will sink in room-temperature water.</u>
<u></u>
Boron would have the lower first ionization energy.
Be: 1s2 2s2
B: 1s2 2s2 2p1 -> electron from the p orbital is easier to eject than than electron from the s orbital.
