It condenses very long strings of numbers while retaining the general accuracy of the figure.
Which has the highest electronegativity value?
A
hydrogen
B
calcium
C
helium
D
fluorine d because fluorine has a higher group number
<em>This statement is false.</em> When you say full octet, it means that an element opts to have eight electrons in its valence shell to become stable. However, since a hydrogen atom only has 1 electron when neutral, it is impossible to reach a full octet. That is why Hydrogen is one of the exceptions to this octet rule.
Answer:
Period
Explanation:
Periodic trend along period:
As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction.
The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required.The electron affinity also increases along period because of greater positive charge.
