What is electropositivity and electronegativity? Between group 1 and group 17, which is electropositive and electronegative?

1 answer:

3 0

Electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom or a functional group to attract electrons towards the nucleus. Electropositivity on the other hand is a measure of an element's ability to donate electrons. Group 1 is a group of metals hence they are electropositive while group 17 is electronegative

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

The apple also exerts an equal and opposite force on the earth but earth does not move because the mass of apple is very small,due to which the gravitational force produces a large acceleration in it (a=F/m) and we can see the apple falling towards the earth but the mass of earth is very large,the same gravitational .

A 4.4 kg mess kit sliding on a frictionless surface explodes into two 2.2 kg parts, one moving at 2.9 m/s, due north, and the ot

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Original speed of the mess kit = 4.43 m/s at 50.67° north of east.

Explanation:

Let north represent positive y axis and east represent positive x axis.

Here momentum is conserved.

Let the initial velocity be v.

Initial momentum = 4.4 x v = 4.4v

Velocity of 2.2 kg moving at 2.9 m/s, due north = 2.9 j m/s
