Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given atoms has to be arranged in increasing order of electronegativity.
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 atoms has to be arranged in increasing order of electronegativity.
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.

O9O double bond energy beginning with O2(g) as a reactantarrow_forwardWithout using Fig. 3-4, predict the order of increasing electronegativity in each of the following groups of elements. a. C, N, O b. S, Se, Cl c. Si, Ge, Sn d. Tl, S, Gearrow_forwardDistinguish between the terms electronegativity versus electron affinity, covalent bond versus ionic bond, and pure covalent bond versus polar covalent bond. Characterize the types of bonds in terms of electronegativity difference. Energetically, why do ionic and covalcnt bonds form?arrow_forward
