Why is the electron affinity for clorine is greater than the electron affinity for iodine?
Generally electron affinity goes up as you go from left to right across the periodic table, and decreases as you go down a column. However, fluorine is an exception -- and the element with the highest electron affinity is chlorine.(Note that the most electronegative element is fluorine however; 'electronegativity' is not exactly the same as 'electron affinity'.)Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a molecule to draw bonding electrons to itselfElectron affinity is a measure of the energy change when an electron is added to a neutral atom to form a negative ion.The reason that the electron affinity is not as high as might otherwise be predicted for fluorine, is that it is an extremely small atom, and so it's electron density is very high. Adding an additional electron is therefore not quite as favorable as for an element like chlorine where the electron density is slightly lower (due to electron-electron repulsion between the added electron and the other electrons in the electron cloud).
Is daL mL dL cL in smallest to largest?
The correct order from smallest to largest is: cL (centiliter), mL (milliliter), dL (deciliter), daL (decaliter).
Which element has the electron configuration 1s22s22p63s23p5?
The element with the electron configuration 1s22s22p63s23p5 is fluorine (F).
How many valence electrons does ch2cl2 have?
Cl2 is the diatomic molecule of chlorine (Cl) . It has 14 valence electrons, 7 in each atom. When chlorine forms a chloride ion, an atom accepts an electron and becomes Cl- (negative ion).
The electron dot structure for Cl?
The electron dot structure for Cl (chlorine) consists of the chemical symbol Cl surrounded by 7 dots representing the 7 valence electrons of a chlorine atom. These dots are placed around the symbol to show the distribution of electrons in the outer energy level.
What has the highest and lowest electron affinity Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar?
Among the elements listed: Highest electron affinity: Cl (Chlorine) with an electron affinity of -349 kJ/mol. Lowest electron affinity: Ar (Argon) with an electron affinity of 0 kJ/mol (inerts gases like Ar typically have low electron affinities).
What element has the most negative electron affinity Al Si S Cl?
Chlorine (Cl) has the most negative electron affinity among these elements. It has a higher tendency to gain an electron to form a chloride ion compared to aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), and sulfur (S).
What has the greatest electron affinity?
Cl and F
Who can help me with this problem Rank the following elements by electron affinity from most positive to most negative I have the elements Ar Cl O Sb and Rb?
The order is: O, Cl, Sb, Rb, Ar.
What is the relationship between the ionization energy of a mono-anion such as Cl - and the electron affinity of the neutral atom?
The ionization energy of a mono-anion such as Cl- is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from the anion to form a neutral atom. Electron affinity is the energy released when an atom gains an electron to form an anion. They are related as the ionization energy of Cl- is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the electron affinity of the Cl atom.
Which element has the lowest electron affinity Is it nitrogen?
No, nitrogen does not have a low electron affinity. Electron affinity increases as you go up and to the right on the periodic table. Thus, Groups I and II elements (ex. Cs, Ba, Sr, etc.) have LOW electron affinities and the halogens in Group VII (Br, Cl, F, etc) have the HIGHEST electron affinities. Chlorine has the HIGHEST electron affinity on the periodic table.(Fluorine is an exception in this case.)
Which element would most likely have a positive electron affinity between Na Al Rb and Ar?
Chlorine (Cl) would most likely have a positive electron affinity. Typically, elements with high electron affinities are found on the right side of the periodic table, closer to the noble gases. Among the choices given, Argon (Ar) is a noble gas and has a positive electron affinity.
What elements has the largest electron affinity?
AnswerElectron affinity is the energy released when we add an electron to the outermost orbit of the atom. Halogens are the higher in electron affinity, and chlorine has the higher electron affinity than rest of the halogens. The irregularity in the electron affinity trend between Cl and F is due to the small size of the F atom. Although F definitely has a higher attraction for an electron than Cl (as evidenced by its high electro negativity value), the small size of the F atom means that adding an electron creates significant repulsion. Since electron affinity is an energy measurement, the total energy associated with electron affinity winds up being the energy that is released by the electron binding to the nucleus, minus the energy involved in overcoming the electrical repulsion in the outer shell.This makes the fluoride anion so formed unstable due to a very high charge/mass ratio. Also, fluorine has no d electrons which limits its atomic size. As a result, fluorine has an electron affinity less than that of chlorine.
What is the relationship between the ionization energy of a mono anion such as Cl and the electron affinity of the neutral atom?
The ionization energy of a monoanion (e.g., Cl^-) is the energy required to remove an electron from the monoanion to form a neutral atom. The electron affinity of the neutral atom (e.g., Cl) is the energy released when an electron is added to form a negative ion (e.g., Cl^-). In general, the ionization energy and electron affinity are related as they both involve the interaction of electrons with atoms, but they are opposite processes in terms of energy change.
Why does electron affinity increase going left to right?
In general, electron affinity does not increase steadily from left to right. Firstly, only non-metals have electron affinities greater than 0. Secondly, the ordering of these electron affinities is O<N<F; S<P<Cl
Does F and Cl elements have the same valence electron configuration?
yes
How do you sort the following elements by electron affinity from most positive to most negative value bismuth chlorine helium cesium and tellurium?
After Pauling table the electronegativity of these elements are: - Argon: practically inactive - Fluorine: 3,98 - Oxygen: 3,44 - Bismuth: 2,02 - Rubidium: 0,82
