All p block elements form ions. True or False

Chemistry

FinnZ [79.3K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

No this statement is false.

Explanation:

when an atom lose or gain the electron ions are formed. If the atom lose an electron the positive ions are formed called cations while anion is formed by the gaining of electron by an atom The elements having less electrons in valance shell usually lose their electrons while the elements like halogens having 7 valance electrons gain an electron to complete the octet. while p block elements noble gases are inert, their outer most valance shell is complete so they do not form ions.

P block elements are non-metals, metals and metalloids. These are thirty five elements. The P-block elements are present on right side of periodic table. There valance electrons are present in P orbital. The p-block metals are shiny and good conductor of heat and electricity. These metal lose the electron which is accept by non metals and form ionic bond. They have high melting points.

Metalloids includes boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium. Metalloids contain both the properties of metals and non metals, Some metalloids are toxic like arsenic.

Most of p-block elements are non metals. They are bad conductor of heat and electricity and have low boiling points. The non metals mostly accept the electron from the metals and usually from ionic bond like in case of chlorine. It form the ionic compound with sodium.

The sodium chloride which is an ionic compound, formed by the complete transfer of electron from sodium to chlorine atom and form ionic bond. In this ionic compound sodium carry positive charge and chlorine carry negative charge there is attraction between these oppositely charged atoms.

Answer:

²³⁸₉₃Np  → Pu₉₄²³⁸ + ⁰₋₁e

Explanation:

²³⁸₉₃Np  → Pu₉₄²³⁸ + ⁰₋₁e

Beta radiations:

Beta radiations are result from the beta decay in which electron is ejected. The neutron inside of the nucleus converted into the proton an thus emit the electron which is called β particle.

The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.

They can travel in air in few meter distance.

These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.

The sheet of aluminium is used to block the beta radiation

⁴₆C → ¹⁴₇N + ⁰₋₁e

The beta radiations are emitted in this reaction. The one electron is ejected and neutron is converted into proton.

Kisachek [45]
<span>1.05 g/ml * 1000 ml = 1050g/l because of 1g/ml = 1 kg/l so, a/q mass of 4.7 l of whole blood in pound = 4.7 * 1050 = 4935 g so in pound 4935g = 10.87981p</span>
