What element would bromine most like marry and why?
For example alkali metals because the differences of electronegativities are high.
What are the general and characteristics of metals and non metals and metalloids?
Metals: Shiny 'metallic' appearance Solids at room temperature (except mercury) High melting points High densities Large atomic radii Non Metals: High ionization energies High electronegativities Poor thermal conductors Poor electrical conductors Brittle solids Little or no metallic luster Gain electrons easily Metalloids: Electronegativities between those of metals and nonmetals Ionization energies between those of metals and nonmetals Possess some characteristics of metals/some of nonmetals Reactivity depends on properties of other elements in reaction Often make good semiconductors
Why ionic bond energetically favorable between element of group 1 2 6 and 7?
It is because of the difference in electronegativies between the elements. Groups 6 and 7 typically have large electronegativities and therefore attract electrons to them, while metals generally have a low electronegativity and therefore don't hold their outer shell electrons as strongly. The difference in electronegativities has to be above 2.0 in most cases before it can be considered as an ionic bond.
Why alkali metals form ionic hydrides?
SHORT ANSWER: the difference in electronegativities between H and Alkali metals is high, so the bonds are more ionic.
What forms the most polar bond to hydrogen based on Pauling electronegativities?
Hydrogen and Fluorine form the most polar bond H-F, the difference of electronegativities is 1.9.
What element would bromine most like marry and why?
For example alkali metals because the differences of electronegativities are high.
What is reactivity of properties of metals?
Electronegativities of metals are very different: alkali metals are very reactive, platinum metals very unreactive. Metals react with nonmetals.
What is the metallic properties?
Electronegativities of metals are very different: alkali metals are very reactive, platinum metals very unreactive. Metals react with nonmetals.
Why is lithium the least reactive in its group?
Other alkali metals have lower electronegativities.
What are binary ionic compounds?
Metals and nonmetal ions, Compounds with very different electronegativities
What is a chemical bond between 2 non-metals?
The bond between 2 non-metals is covalent. Depending on the relative electronegativities it may be polar covalent.
What are the general and characteristics of metals and non metals and metalloids?
Metals: Shiny 'metallic' appearance Solids at room temperature (except mercury) High melting points High densities Large atomic radii Non Metals: High ionization energies High electronegativities Poor thermal conductors Poor electrical conductors Brittle solids Little or no metallic luster Gain electrons easily Metalloids: Electronegativities between those of metals and nonmetals Ionization energies between those of metals and nonmetals Possess some characteristics of metals/some of nonmetals Reactivity depends on properties of other elements in reaction Often make good semiconductors

What is the extremely reactive nonmetals readily with the alkali metals to form salt?
The cause is the big difference between electronegativities.
Why alkali metals form ionic hydrides?
SHORT ANSWER: the difference in electronegativities between H and Alkali metals is high, so the bonds are more ionic.
What forms the most polar bond to hydrogen based on Pauling electronegativities?
Hydrogen and Fluorine form the most polar bond H-F, the difference of electronegativities is 1.9.
What makes up alkali metals special?
Alkali metals are very reactive, not dense or hard metals, monovalent, with low electronegativities, with low melting and boiling points, react violently with water, form strong bases, etc.
