Answer:
Explanation:
Electrons are the negatively charged particles of an atom that are involved in chemical reactions. They are located outside the nucleus of an atom
Answer:
Ionic character
A. PF₃ > PBr₃ > PCl₃
B. BF₃ > CF₄ > NF₃
C. TeF₄ > BrF₃ > SeF₄
Explanation:
The most electronegative element is fluorine, followed chlorine, phosphorous nitrogen etc.
- Atoms with high electronegativity tend to form negative ions.
- Ionic compounds formed between elements with high electronegativity difference.
- % ionic character is directly proportional to electronegativity difference.
- According to Pauling Scale E.n for F(4.0), O(3.5), N(3.0), C(2.5), B(2.0), P(2.19), Se(2.55) , Te (2.1), Cl(3.16) and Br(2.96)
- ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( P and F = 4 - 2.19 = 1.81), (P and Br = 2.96 - 2.19 = 0.77) , (P and Cl = 3.16 - 2.96 = 0.2 )
- ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( N and F = 4 - 3 = 1), (B and F = 4 - 2 = 2) , (C and F = 4 - 2.5 = 1.5 )
- ΔE.N (Electronegativity difference) between( Se and F = 4 - 2.55 = 1.45), (F and Te = 4 - 2.1 = 1.9) , (F and Br = 4 - 2.19 = 1.81 )
Answer:
Because they are extremely stable molecules, CFCs do not react easily with other chemicals in the lower atmosphere. ... Free chlorine atoms then react with ozone molecules, taking one oxygen atom to form chlorine monoxide and leaving an ordinary oxygen molecule.
