Why is the square for hydrogen separated slightly from the squares for the other elements in the periodic table?

Hydrogen is a unique element because it only has one proton, one electron and no neutrons. Because of this configuration, it can readily form both ionic and covalent bonds.

What type of bond forms between slightly positive hydrogen atom in one molecule and slightly negative atom in another molecule?
A hydrogen bond.
Is hydrogen sulfide gas soluble in water?
slightly soluble, it will make water slightly acidic
The bonds that make water cohesive are?
Hydrogen bonding. The Hydrogen atoms and slightly positive and the oxygen atoms are slightly negative due to electronegativity and the hydrogens from one water molecule is attracted the the oxygen on other molecules
Why does period 3 has a maximum of 8 elements and not 18?
According to a law, the orbital with lower n+l value fills first. So 4S has lower energy i.e. lower n+l value (4) than 3D (5). So the elements after 3P^6 move to the 4th periodic table .
In liquid water does the hydrogen atoms slide past the oxygen atoms easily?
No, because the hydrogen atoms are slightly positive and the oxygen is slightly negative they are attracted to each other by something called hydrogen bonds. It actually gives the water a sticky quality called cohesion.
Which elements from the periodic table has been around the longest?
hydrogen, it is the only element that dates back to the time of the generation of the 3K background radiation of the big bang. some helium formed slightly later, but all the rest of the elements could not form until the first stars formed a billion or so years after the big bang.
Which elements are most likely to react with other elements?
The elements in Group 1 of the Periodic Table are highly reactive in water, and, only slightly less reactive in Oxygen. Group 2 elements are also quite reactive in Oxygen, but not quite as reactive as those elements in Group 1.
What kind of bond is a weak attraction between a slightly positive region of one atom and a slightly negative region of another?
A hydrogen bond.
Is hydrogen peroxyde acid or base?
Hydrogen peroxide is slightly acidic.
Does hydrogen flouride contain hydrogen bonds?
Yes, hydrogen bonds do exist between molecules of hydrogen fluoride. This is because hydrogen fluoride molecules are quite small and are very polar due to the high electronegativity difference of hydrogen and fluorine. As a result, the hydrogen end of each molecule is slightly positive while the fluoride end is slightly negative. The slightly positive hydrogen end of one molecule will be attracted to the slightly negative fluoride end of another molecule, thus forming a hydrogen bond.
Why higher alcohols are insoluble in water and lower alcohols are soluble in water?
Hydrogen bonding occurs between molecules where you have a hydrogen atom attached to one of the very electronegative elements - fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.In the case of alcohols, there are hydrogen bonds set up between the slightly positive hydrogen atoms and lone pairs on oxygens in other molecules.The hydrogen atoms are slightly positive because the bonding electrons are pulled away from them towards the very electronegative oxygen atoms.just bcz of hydrogen bondingsolubility differs..
What type of bond forms between a slightly positive hydrogen atom in on molecule and a slightly negative atom in another molecule?
A hydrogen bond.
What type of bond forms between a slightly positive hydrogen in one molecule and slightly negative atom in another molecule?
A hydrogen bond.
What type of bonds forms a slightly positive hydrogen atom in one molecule and slightly negative atom in another molecule?
It is called hydrogen bond.
What type of bond forms between a slightly positive hydrogen atom in one molecule and a slightly negative atom and another molecule?
A hydrogen bond.
What type of bond forms between a slightly positive hydrogen atom in one molecules and a slightly negative atom in another molecule?
A hydrogen bond.
What type of bond forms between slightly positive hydrogen atom in one molecule and slightly negative atom in another molecule?
A hydrogen bond.
