Why does oxygen have a higher electronegativity compared to chlorine?

Chemistry
1 answer:
bezimeni [28]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The  electronegativity   of fluorine  compare  to the  electronegativity   of oxygen and chlorine as below

Explanation:

Fluorine  has the highest electronegativity than oxygen, and  chlorine.

 Explanation

Generally  the  electronegativity  increase   across the period ( from the left to the right)  and  decreases down  the group.

Both oxygen and fluorine  are in period 2   in  periodic   table. since  fluorine is on  fur  right side as compared to oxygen , fluorine has higher  electronegativity than  oxygen.

On the  other side  Fluorine  and  chlorine are  in the same group in periodic table. fluorine  is at  the top of  the group  while chlorine  is at  the bottom therefore fluorine has  higher electronegativity  than chlorine.

What is the highest energy to which doubly ionized helium atoms (alpha particles) can be accelerated in a DC accelerator with 3
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Highest energy will be equal to 9.6\times 10^{-13}J

Explanation:

Charged on doubly ionized helium atom q=2e=2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}C=3.2\times 10^{-19}C

It is accelerated with maximum voltage of 3 MV

So voltage V=3\times 10^6volt

Now energy is given by E=qV=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3\times 10^6=9.6\times 10^{-13}J

So highest energy will be equal to 9.6\times 10^{-13}J

The gram formula mass of NH4Cl is(1) 22.4 g/mole (3) 53.5 g/mole(2) 28.0 g/mole (4) 95.5 g/mole
g100num [7]
The answer is (3) 53.5 g/mol. The gram formula mass means that the mass of one mol compound. 1N=14, 4H=4, 1Cl=35.5. So the gram formula mass of NH4Cl=14+4+35.5=53.5 g/mol.
