Why does having a high first ionization energy and high electronegativity cause a nonmetal to be very reactive?.

SAT
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]2 years ago
6 0

There in an increase in reactivity because the nonmetals want to hold on to their electrons.

<h3>Reactivity</h3>

With less electronegativity, there is also less ionization energy. For metals, it is easier to lose the electrons, hence the metal becomes more reactive because it uses less energy.

For nonmetals, they are gain electrons and not lose them. Thus, an increase in electronegativity and ionization energy means an increase in reactivity because the nonmetals want to hold on to their electrons.

According to Newton's 3rd Law of Motion, when you walk on the sidewalk, the push of your shoe on the ground is _______ the push
Nady [450]

Answer:

opposite

Explanation:

Newton's 3rd law of motion: If object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A.

so it should be opposite because the ground/floor pushes the shoe up and forward, the shoe pushes down and back.

correct me if you see a mistake.

In a bag of red and blue sweets, the ratio of red sweets to blue sweets is 3:4. If the bug contains 120 blue sweets, how many bl
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

If there are 120 blue sweets then going by the ratio 3:4, there are 90 red sweets

Explanation:

Red sweets : Blue sweets = 3:4

Total ratio* = 3+4 = 7

Blue sweets = 4x = 120

Red sweets = 3x

where X is the ratio multiplier

x= 120/4 = 30

》 Red sweets = 3 × 30 = 90

GOD HALP MEEE: It takes Lucas 3 hours to cycle from his home to his friend's village. But if he travels 5 mph slower, it will ta
Bumek [7]

Answer:

45 miles

Explanation:

Speed = distance / time

Lets assume :

speed = x

Distance = D

Time = 3 hours

so in first case :

x = D / 3

D = 3x

Second case :

speed = x-5  ( he is traveling 5mph slower )

Distance = D ( Distance is same )

time = 4.5 hour

so,

x-5 = D / 4.5

D = 4.5(x-5)

since D is same in both cases.

3x = 4.5(x-5)

3x = 4.5x - 22.5

4.5x - 3x = 22.5

1.5x = 22.5

x = 22.5/1.5

x= 15

so speed is 15mph

D= 3x

so Distance = 3*15 = 45 Miles.
