Answer: the molecular formula of the compound is still the same i.e CO2
Explanation:
I'll go through them one by one
1) H-S
The electronegativity of Hydrgoen is 2.2, and sulphur is 2.58,
therefore the difference is 0.38 (2.58-2.2=0.38)
2) H-Cl
Hydrogen: 2.2, Chlorine: 3.16
therefore difference is 0.96
3) N-H
Nitrogen: 3.04, Hydrogen: 2.2
therefore difference is 0.84
4) C-H
Carbon: 2.55, hydrogen: 2.2
therefore difference is 0.35
so, the most apparent electronegativity is chlorine, but this could have been done without actually doing the maths. The trend of electronegativty increases across a period and increases up a period due to the strong affinity of the nucleus with bonding electrons. This does not include noble gases though, as they have no charge due to having complete valance shells. T<span>he most electronegative element is Fluorine (9), and the least electronegative element (besides noble gases) is Francium (87)</span>
Answer:
Option (B)
Explanation:
Crystals are usually defined as those substances that are comprised of atoms, ions, and molecules, and they are oriented in a very well-developed and ordered microscopic structure. These crystals are interlinked to one another by strong chemical bonds, namely the metallic, covalent, ionic and Vander Waals bond. In nature, these crystals form when any liquid undergoes cooling and solidifies.
The study of crystals is commonly known as crystallography and is directly associated with the minerals.
Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
A low electronegativity
Explanation:
Potassium is a metal that is expected to have a very low electronegativity value.
Electronegativity is the relative tendency by which an atom attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.
Potassium is an element in the first group on the periodic table.
The common trend is that electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down a group.
- Potassium as metal will prefer to lose electrons rather than attracting because that will make it achieve the octet configuration that will ensure its stability.
- This is why it will have low electronegativity.
