Answer:
The second ionization energy of an atom is always greater than its first ionization energy.
Explanation:
<em>Ionization energies are always negative quantities.</em> FALSE. Ionization energies are always positive because they represent the energy that has to be added to a neutral gaseous atom to remove 1 electron. By convention, energy absorbed goes with the positive sign.
X(g) + 1 I.E. ⇒ X(g)⁺ + 1 e⁻
<em>Oxygen has a larger first ionization energy than fluorine.</em> FALSE. First ionization energy (1 I.E) is the energy required to remove 1 electron from a neutral gaseous atom. First ionization energy for Oxygen is 13.61 eV and for Fluorine is 17.42 eV, that is, more energy is required to remove an electron from F than from O.
<em>The second ionization energy of an atom is always greater than its first ionization energy.</em> TRUE. The energy required to remove 1 electron from a +1 cation (second ionization energy) is always greater than the first ionization energy because of the attraction between the cation and the electron.
X(g)⁺ + 2 I.E. ⇒ X(g)⁺² + 1 e⁻
<em>The third ionization energy is the energy needed to ionize three electrons from a neutral atom.</em> FALSE. The third ionization energy (3 I.E.) is the energy required to remove 1 electron from a +2 cation.
X(g)⁺² + 3 I.E. ⇒ X(g)⁺³ + 1 e⁻
Answer:
AX₂
Explanation:
Binary compounds:
The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.
For example:
The following compounds are binary:
HCl
H₂O
NH₃
HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine. Ammonia is also binary compound because it is made up of only two elements nitrogen and hydrogen.
water is also binary because it is also made up of only two elements hydrogen and oxygen.
In given question it is stated that the charge of cation is twice than the anion which means its charge would be +2 thus anionic part will have the charge -1. In neutral compound the positive and negative charges must be equal in magnitude to cancel the effect of each other and make the compound neutral. So, there must be two anionic atom present so that charge becomes -2 and cancel the +2 charge of cationic part. Thus the formula will be,
AX₂
A⁺²X₂⁻²
