Concept Introduction:
- Covalent bonding: A covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons (equally or partially polarized) between the two non-metals.
- Octet rule: By obtaining eight electrons around the valence shell of an element, then compound satisfied the octet rule and thus, achieved the electron configuration of noble gas.
To Identify: The electron affinity trend from aluminum to chlorine to be interpreted.

1. On the basis of electron configuration explain why:a) Sulphur has a lower electron affinity than chlorine. (2)b) Phosphorous has a higher ionization energy than sulphur.
All of the following statements concerning the characteristics of the halogens are true except which:
a) The first ionization energies decrease as the atomic numbers of the halogens increase.
b) Fluorine is the best oxidizing agent.
c) Fluorine atoms have the smallest radii.
d) Iodine liberates free bromine from a solution of bromide ion.
e) Fluorine is the most electronegative of the halogens.
1. Arrange the atoms according to both decreasing atomic radius and increasing first ionization energy (IE): Ca, Cl, Ga, P, and S
2. Select the statement(s) that explain(s) the relationship between the arrangement of elements by size and first ionization energy.
(a). The two arrangements are the same because IE of elements increases from left to right and the radii of elements decreases from left to right.
b). The first set of paired electrons in a p subshell experience a large amount of electron-electron repulsion, making the fourth electron in a p subshell easy to remove.
c). A full s subshell is able to shield a newly filled p subshell from the nucleus, making the first electron in a p subshell easy to remove.
d). A p subshell with only one unpaired electron is extremely stable, making the fifth electron in a p subshell easy to remove.
e). The third unpaired electron in a p subshell causes a lot of electron-electron repulsion among the orbitals, making the third electron…
