Answer:

Lowest ionization energy: Cs

Most favorable electron affinity: Cl

Most energy required to remove an electron: Cu2+

Explanation:

Ionization energy decreases down the group. That means that as we move down the group, the ionization energy of elements decreases due to greater distance of the outermost electron from the nucleus and greater screening effect of inner electrons on this outermost electron. Hence Cs has the lowest ionization energy.

Electron affinity of halogens decreases down the group. Hence, Cl possess the most favorable electron affinity.

When an electron has been removed from an atom, the removal of the next electron is usually harder. Thus, the second ionization energy is always greater than the first ionization energy and so on. Thus, it is most difficult to remove an electron from Cu^2+ from which two electrons have already been removed.

Consider an electron placed in a region of space in which the electric potential spatially. The electron is placed at a point wh
loris [4]

Answer:

1.33\cdot 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

For a charged particle accelerated by an electric field, the kinetic energy gained by the particle is equal to the decrease in electric potential energy of the particle; therefore:

K_f-K_i = -q\Delta V

where

K_f is the final kinetic energy

K_i is the initial kinetic energy

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference

In this problem,

q=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the charge of the electron

\Delta V=-500 V-(-1000 V)=500 V

The electron starts from rest, so its initial kinetic energy is

K_i=0

Therefore,

K_f=-(-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(500)=8\cdot 10^{-17}J

We can write the final kinetic energy of the electron as

K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m=9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg is the electron mass

v is the final speed

And solving for v,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(8\cdot 10^{-17})}{9.11\cdot 10^{-31}}}=1.33\cdot 10^7 m/s
