Answer:
A3+ and B-
Explanation:
Elements in group 13 have outermost electron configuration, ns2np1 hence they form trivalent positive ions.
Elements in group 17 have outermost electron configuration ns2np5 hence they form univalent negative ions.
This implies that, if element A is in Group 13 and element B is in Group 17, the ions formed are A3+ and B-.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Particles in a solid have fixed locations in a volume that does not change. Solids have a definite volume and shape because particles in a solid vibrate around fixed locations.
I think the answer is False.
Answer:
(A) The intermolecular attraction between HF molecules are stronger than between HCl molecules mainly to due hydrogen bonding.
Explanation:
Since Flourine is highly electronegative and as such, when it bonds with Hydrogen it forms a hydrogen bond. Whereas the HCL molecule is a polar molecule whose inter-molecular forces are dipole dipole interactions. Although a Hydrogen bond is a type of dipole dipole interaction it is stronger than the traditional dipole dipole forces and London dispersion forces. HF also has a shorter bond length which makes the bond and inter-molecular forces stronger as compared to HCL.
