Answer:
the same number of protons
Explanation:
Explanation:
The halogen family and noble gases are similar in just one particular way, they are groups of non-metals. All members of these two groups are categorized as non-metals.
Here are some of the differences between them;
- Halogens have 7 electrons in their outermost shell whereas noble gases have 8 electrons in theirs.
- Halogens are highly reactive elements, noble gases are non-reactive.
- Halogens are made up of electronegative elements where as noble gases are neither electropositive nor electronegative.
Answer: An electron having a quantum number of one is closer to the nucleus
Explanation:
The Bohr model relies on electrostatic attraction between the nucleus and orbital electron. Hence, the closer an electron is to the nucleus the more closely it is held by the nucleus and the lesser its energy (the more stable the electron is and the more difficult it is to ionize it). The farther an electron is from the nucleus ( in higher shells or energy levels), the less the electrostatic attraction of such electron to the nucleus due to shielding effect. Hence it is less tightly held.
