Why is the first ionization of aluminum less than the first ionization of magnesium? Select all that apply. O The 3s electrons shield the 3p electrons from the nuclear charge. O The last valence electron of magnesium ends the occupation of the 3s subshell. O The statement is incorrect because the general trend left to right in a row is for the effective nuclear charge to increase. O The last valence electron of aluminum begins the occupation of the 3p subshell.

Choose the atom in each pair with the highest ionization energy P or Se
How do you calculate ionization energy? Other than the left to right top to bottom? I feel it is not always clear which has higher ionization if they are not in the same row/column. Si has the advantage of being more towards the top than Br but Br has the advantage of being more to the right.
Predict where the largest jump between successive ionization energies occurs for K. between the third and fourth ionization energies between the second and third ionization energies between the fourth and fifth ionization energies between the first and second ionization energies Predict where the largest jump between successive ionization energies occurs for Ca. between the third and fourth ionization energies between the second and third ionization energies between the first and second ionization energies between the fourth and fifth ionization energies
Place the following elements in order of increasing electron Affinity (larger negative numbers, further from "0") B, O, C, Be
Which atom should have the larger second ionization energy: sodium or magnesium? Why?
Exceptions to the trend of increasing first ionization energy and increasingly negative (i.e., more favorable) electron affinity occur in group 15 elements. What is the reason for this? options: A) Removing an electron from a group 15 element would result in it having only two valence electrons B) Group 15 elements attain a noble gas configuration by adding or removing one electron C) Adding an electron to a group 15 element would result in it having four valence electrons D) Group 15 elements attain an unstable "halogen electron configuration" by adding or removing one electron E) Removing or adding an electron to group 15 elements would disrupt their three half-filled p-orbital configurations
Part A: How does ionization energy change down a group? increases from left to right decreases from left to right increases from top to bottom decreases from top to bottom Part B: Why is Ionization energy smaller for larger atoms? Sheilding. The nucleus cannot hold onto the electrons as well and loses them easier Shielding. The nucleus holds onto the electrons stronger and does not lose them easily There is no explanation Part C: According to the trend, which of these 4 elements has the largest ionization energy? Be (atomic# 4) Sr (atomic# 38) F (atomic# 9) I (atomic# 53) Part D: According to the trend, which of these 4 elements has the smallest ionization energy? Be (atomic# 4) Sr (atomic# 38) F (atomic# 9)…
How many electrons can be removed from element 71 before it is reduced to its core electron configuration? For the purposes of this question, the core electron configuration is the configuration of the next lightest rare gas atom.
Select the statement(s) that explain(s) the relationship between the arrangement of elements by size and first ionization energy. 1. The first set of paired electrons in a pp subshell experience a large amount of electron-electron repulsion, making the fourth electron in a pp subshell easy to remove. 2. The third unpaired electron in a pp subshell causes a lot of electron-electron repulsion among the orbitals, making the third electron in a pp subshell easy to remove. 3. A pp subshell with only one unpaired electron is extremely stable, making the fifth electron in a pp subshell easy to remove. 4. The two arrangements are the same because IE of elements increases from left to right and the radii of elements decreases from left to right. 5. A full ss subshell is able to shield a newly filled pp subshell from the nucleus, making the first electron in a pp subshell easy to remove.
