The oxidation half reaction of the reaction given above would be: Ca → Ca + 2e−. Oxidation is the loss of electrons of an element while its counterpart is called the reduction which gains the electrons that has been lost. Hope this answers the question.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
it's on the internet and I just know because I did this before too
Onization energy is the energy required to lose an electron and form an ion. The stronger is the attraction of the atom and the electron the higher the ionization energy, and the weaker is the attraction of the atom and the electron the higher the ionization energy. This leads to a clear trend in the periodic table. Given that the larger the atom the weaker the attraction of the atom to the valence electrons, the easier they will be released, and the lower the ionization energy. This is, as you go downward in a group, the ionization energy decreases. So, the element at the top of the group will exhibit the largest ionization energy. <span>Therefore, the answer is that of the four elements of group 7A, fluorine will have the largest first ionization energy.</span>
