How do I know which element comes first in the formula for a binary molecular compound if i just have the two elements, not the

name (E.g Cl and O, how do i know if it's Cl₂O or OCl₂ since there isn't a cation or anion?).

Which condition increases the number of collisions between reactant molecules in a given volume?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Increasing Surface Area

Explanation:

A greater surface area (meaning more, smaller particles) allows for more opportunity for particles to collide.  On the other hand, decreasing temperature and removing a catalyst would only decrease the number of collisions, and the clumping option doesn't make much sense.  Hope this helps!

What do Potassium and Krypton have in common and what are their differences based on their location on the periodic table?
Kamila [148]

Potassium (K) and Krypton (Kr) are in the same period, so they have the same number of electron shells. Potassium is more reactive than Krypton because it only has one valence electron.

K and Kr are both in Period 4, so they each have the n = 1, 2, 3, and 4 shells. Kr is less reactive than K because it already has a complete octet.


“Potassium (K) and Krypton (Kr) are in the same period, so they have the same number of electron shells. Krypton is more reactive than Potassium because it has a full outer shell” is <em>incorrect </em>because having a full outer shell means that the element is unreactive.


“Potassium (K) and Krypton (Kr) are in the same group, so they have the same number of valence electrons. They have different numbers of electron shells” is <em>incorrect </em>for three reasons:

1. K is in Group 1 and Kr is in Group 18.

2. K has one valence electron, and Kr has eight valence electrons.

3. They have the same number of electron shells.


“Potassium (K) and Krypton (Kr) are in the same group, so they have the same number of valence electrons. They have different numbers of electron shells” is <em>incorrect</em> for two reasons:

1. K and Kr have different numbers of valence electrons.

2. They have the same number of electron shells.
