Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given following atoms increasing order of electronegativity has to be arranged.
Concept introduction:
Electronegativity increases in a period from left to right due to atomic size decreases and nuclear charge increases from going left to right in a period.
Electronegativity means the bonded electron between two atom, to attracts a shared pair of electrons towards itself is called Electronegativity
Electronegativity of a series of
Electronegativity decreases down the group because the atomic size increases.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given following atoms increasing order of electronegativity has to be arranged.
Concept introduction:
Electronegativity increases in a period from left to right due to atomic size decreases and nuclear charge increases from going left to right in a period.
Electronegativity means the bonded electron between two atom, to attracts a shared pair of electrons towards itself is called Electronegativity
Electronegativity of a series of transition metals is almost similar
Electronegativity decreases down the group because the atomic size increases.

- Using a periodic table, but not a table of electronegativity values, arrange each of the following sets of atoms in order of increasing electronegativity. a. Be, N, O, B b. Li, C, B, K c. S, Te, Cl, Se d. S, Mg, K, Caarrow_forwardFour hypothetical elements, A, B, C, and D, have electronegativities A = 3.4, B = 3.1, C = 2.5, end D = 1.7. These elements form the compounds CB, DC, DA, and BA. Arrange the compounds in order of a. Increasing ionic bond character b. Decreasing covalent bond characterarrow_forwardDefine the term lattice energy. Why, energetically, do ionic compounds form? Fig. 3-8 illustrates the energy changes involved in the formation of MgO(s) and NaF(s). Why is the lattice energy of MgO(s) so different from that of NaF(s)? The magnesium oxide is composed of Mg2+ and O2 ions. Energetically, why does Mg2+O2 form and not Mg+O? Why doesnt Mg3+O3 form?arrow_forward
