What else can I help you with?
Pick the statement that is most likely to be true of an element with LOW electronegativity?
An element with low electronegativity is likely to be a good conductor of electricity since it has a weaker ability to attract and hold on to electrons. This means that the element is less likely to form strong covalent bonds with other elements, making it more likely to easily share electrons and conduct electricity.
What specifies the properties of electrons?
The number most usually associated with electrons is minus one, which describes their electrical charge.
The valence electrons are those electrons most tightly held by the atom?
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom, and they are involved in bonding with other atoms to form molecules. These electrons are most loosely held by the atom, as they are farthest from the nucleus and have the highest energy.
What type of element is most likely to gain electrons when it is forms bonds?
metals
What element has 4 electrons on its outer most energy level?
Carbon is an example.
Which element will hold its electrons most tightly F Au Rb or N?
F (fluorine) is the most strongly electronegative element.
Which element holds its electrons most tightly?
Fluorine holds its electrons most tightly among the elements. This is because fluorine has the highest electronegativity value on the periodic table. Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract and hold onto electrons in a chemical bond.
How many electrons are in its outermost shell?
It depends on the element in question. The outer most shell of electrons will hold the remainder of the electrons after all inward shells are filled. The first shell will only hold up to 2 electrons. After each shell holds up to 8 electrons (if the atomic number is <20).
What has scientist listed to be at the top of items that hold or give up electrons?
The most electronegative element is fluoride. The most electropositive element would be Francium however there has never been enough of it collected to perform the measurement on.
What is the number of valence electrons (number in the outer most energy level)?
The valence electrons are the outer most electrons and the principal energy level in which they belong will vary for element to element and generally corresponds to the period number in which the element is present
Pick the statement that is most likely to be true of an element with LOW electronegativity?

How many electrons can the first energy level in the electron cloud hold?
The first energy level can hold 2. The second level can hold 8. The third level can hold 18. Fourth and beyond can hold 32.
Are the valence electrons held most tightly by the atom?
Valence electrons are the electrons least tightly held by the atom and by definition are the electrons in the outermost shell of the electron and are highest in energy. They are the electrons that often contribute to an elements reactivity and in the case of Sodium, which as one valence electron in its ground state, it "gives up" its electron when it comes in contact with water.
Electrons that are held most loosely in an atom are called what?
The electrons in the valence band, this can be 1 to 8 electrons (in the s and p orbitals of the outer shell) depending on the element.
What part of an atom is involved the most in bonding?
Electrons are the most important element in atom bonding. Each element has an atomic number based on the number of electrons, and it is the was these different numbers of electrons link up to each other that determines how closely they will bond.
Is boron protons electrons or neutrons?
Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.
Does all gold in nature have electrons?
Gold has lots of electrons. All elements have electrons, but gold, a heavy element, has more than most.
