Answer:
The correct option is B
Explanation:
The number of valence electron(s) increases across the period and thus influences the direction of periodic trend of electronegativity, electron affinity and ionization energy across the period. Thus, making option B the answer.
It should be noted that option A is wrong because elements in the same period generally have the same number of electron shells and thus the distance of this shells from the nucleus remains the same throughout the same period and thus option C is also wrong. Option D is wrong because the periodic trends have to do with chemical reactions which actually involves electrons and not protons.
Answer:
Explanation:
The changes in properties from metals to non-metals on a periodic table can be measured and determined by the metallicity or electropositivity of elements.
Metallicity is a measure of the tendency of atoms of an element to lose electrons.
a.
Down a periodic group, metallicity increases.
b.
Across a period from left to right electropositivity or metallicity decreases.
Metals are found in the left part of periodic table and the most reactive metal sits in the lower left corner. Non-metals are towards the right side of the table.
I believe it is C ( reasoning )
Answer:
Equilibrium will lie to the right.
Explanation:

That means HF is stronger acid than
.
Alternatively, it can be said that
is a stronger base than
.
Therefore HF readily gives proton to
to form
and
than the reverse reaction.
So, the equilibrium will lie more towards the right i.e. towards formation of
and
.
