Explanation:
Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom.
When we move across a period from left to right then there occurs a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. Therefore, ionization energy increases along a period.
But when we move from top to bottom in a group then there occurs an increase in size of the atoms. Hence, ionization energy decreases along a group.
(a) As Sb, Sn and I are all period 5 elements. Hence, these elements are arranged in order of increasing as follows.
Sn < Sb < I
(b) As Sr, Ca, and Ba are all elements of group 2a. Hence, these elements are arranged in order of increasing as follows.
Ba < Sr < Ca
Answer:
The given molecules are SO2 and BrF5.
Explanation:
Consider the molecule SO2:
The central atom is S.
The number of domains on S in this molecule is three.
Domain geometry is trigonal planar.
But there is a lone pair on the central atom.
So, according to VSEPR theory,
the molecular geometry becomes bent or V-shape.
Hybridization on the central atom is
.
Consider the molecule BrF5:
The central atom is Br.
The number of domains on the central atom is six.
Domain geometry is octahedral.
But the central atom has a lone pair of electrons.
So, the molecular geometry becomes square pyramidal.
The hybridization of the central atom is .
The shapes of SO2 and BrF5 are shown below:
