Answer:
Fluorine
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry</u>
- Reading a Periodic Table
- Periodic Trends
- Electronegativity - the tendency for an element to attract an electron to itself
- Z-effective and Coulomb's Law, Forces of Attraction
Explanation:
The Periodic Trend for Electronegativity is up and to the right of the Periodic Table.
Fluorine is Element 9 and has 9 protons. Radium is Element 88 and has 88 protons. Therefore, Radium has a bigger Zeff than Flourine.
However, since Radium is in Period 7 while Fluorine is in Period 2, Radium has more core e⁻ than Fluorine does. This will create a much larger shielding effect, causing Radium's outermost e⁻ to have less FOA between them. Fluorine, since it has less core e⁻, the FOA between the nucleus and outershell e⁻ will be much stronger.
Therefore, Fluorine would attract an electron more than Radium, thus bringing us to the conclusion that Fluorine has a higher electronegativity.
I believe the correct term to fill in the blank would be ionic. A molecule of common table salt, or nacl, is the result of ionic bond forming between a sodium (na) atom and a chlorine (cl) atom. Ionic bonding is a result of complete transfer of electrons between atoms. It usually happens between a metal and a nonmetal.
Answer:
CaCO3 -> CaO + CO2
Explanation:
Woahhhh, did you balance it yourself just then?
Answer:
0.11 nm
Explanation:
1.1 x 10-10 m
The goal is to convert the atomic radius from meters (m) to nanometres (nm). We do this by multiplying the value by 10^9.
This is given as;
