CESIUM :)
an atom with a high electronegativity, like fluorine
The single "most likely" element that would form an ionic compound with fluorine is cesium, or possibly francium if enough of it could be collected. This is because cesium, among stable elements, has the lowest electronegativity and fluorine has the highest electronegativity. However, any alkali or alkaline earth metal element in fact readily forms an ionic compound with fluorine, as do many other metals.
the difference between the electronegativity values of sodium and bromine is 1.9 , which is relatively high in general , high differences suggest ionic bonds.
No, cesium has no odor.
CESIUM :)
Generally speaking, non-metals have high electronegativity and metals have low ones. Fluorine (F) has the highest electronegativity of any element, and cesium (Cs) has the lowest.
No. the element francium will have the lowest electronegativity. However it is radioactive and for practical purpose, cesium is considered to be the element with lowest electronegativity.
Electronegativity increases as you go from the bottom left corner of the periodic table to the upper right corner. The element with the lowest electronegativity is thus francium (Fr). However, this element is radioactive, and so generally the least electronegative element that you can really use is cesium (Cs). Generally speaking, this whole first column (the alkali metals) all have very low electronegativities, but the lower down the column, the lower the electronegativity.(Francium may not be the least electronegative element due to the relativistic effects, which is evident from its ionization energy (> Cs) and standard electrode potential (
cesium and fluorine
Cesium and magnesium are both metals. According to Pauling's scale, they have an electronegativity difference lesser than 1.7. Hence, they cannot form an ionic compound.
Based on the maximum possible difference in electronegativity, this should be the bond in cesium fluoride.
It electronegativity is 1.5
The high reactivity of cesium comes from its tendency to give up the one electron in its outermost shell and become a cesium 1+ ion, which is more stable. In cesium chloride, the cesium is already in its stable ionic form.
Electronegativity increases as you move up and to the right. (apex) <3 kw
I believe it is electronegativity
Cesium melts at about 83 degrees F, which means it is liquid at near room temperature.
