What elements readily accept electrons?
From a purely electronegative standpoint, Flourine is most likely to be an electron acceptor.
Are atoms of group 16 elements more likely to gain or lose electrons?
OXYGEN because it has only one oxidation state of -2, all the other elements in the group have multiple oxidation states.
The elements from which group are most likely to react with potassium?
K potassium reacts readily with Cl chlorine because the electron configuration changes to that of a noble gas. Group 7a would be the best guess.
Mg will most likely react with elements in which group?
The Halogens Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine
Which element when combined with chlorine would most likely fom an ionic compound?
Among the naturally occurring elements, the most likely one would be cesium, the least electronegative of all elements. In practice, any of the other alkali metals and any of the alkaline earth metals would usually react readily with chlorine gas, as would many of the transition metals.
Which property of chlorine explains why it is likely to form a compound with an alkali metal?
Chlorine will readily accept one electron to its outershell.
What elements readily accept electrons?
From a purely electronegative standpoint, Flourine is most likely to be an electron acceptor.
What elements would likely be most like chlorine and why?
Fluorine is similar to chlorine.
Which elements are likely to lose electron?
Group I elements (that is alkali metals)
Are atoms of group 16 elements more likely to gain or lose electrons?
OXYGEN because it has only one oxidation state of -2, all the other elements in the group have multiple oxidation states.
Is chlorine a metal or nonemetal?
Chlorine is a nonmetal. It is only one electron short of a noble gas electron configuration and is much more likely to abstract an electron from some other element than to donate one to some other element.
The elements from which group are most likely to react with potassium?
K potassium reacts readily with Cl chlorine because the electron configuration changes to that of a noble gas. Group 7a would be the best guess.
What 3 elements that are likely to donate 1 valence electron?
Elements in the 1st group have 1 valence electron. So they are likely to donate 1 electron to get more stable. potassium, rubidium and cesium are likely to donate 1 electron.
What family of elements contains elements most likely to gain an electron in chemical reaction?
Nonmetals, expecially halogens.
What elements will most likely give up a single electron to bromine?
The group 1 elements, which are the alkali metals.
What elements would be likely to form an anion Ar or Cl or Na and Ne?
chlorine or Cl
What are the rings around the potassium diagram?
It depends which diagram, most likely they are electron shells as all elements have
