- Chlorine and bromine are in the same group in the periodic table. The bond energy of a Cl–Cl bond is 240 kJ/mol. The bond energy of a Br–Br bond is 190 kJ/mol. Which statement best explains this difference? Bromine has more electron levels than chlorine. Bromine atoms are more likely than chlorine atoms to interact with other atoms. Chlorine atoms form a double bond, and bromine atoms form a single bond. Chlorine atoms are larger than bromine atoms.arrow_forwardWhy can any atom have no more than 8 valence electrons?arrow_forwardWhile investigating the properties of other diatomic molecules, the student finds the diagram below, which shows the potential energy of two iodine atoms versus the distance between their nuclei. The student also finds that the I-I bond energy is slightly less than the F-F bond energy. The student incorrectly sketches the potential energy curve for two fluorine atoms, shown by the dotted line in the diagram.arrow_forward
- Can you help me with these please?arrow_forwardThe pattern that emerges for many atoms (and especially C, N, O, F) is sometimes referred to as the "octet rule." Hydrogen follows the same pattern, but there is no "octet" of electrons for hydrogen. Use electron configurations to explain why hydrogen is following the same pattern. Use the term "closed shell" in the explanation.arrow_forwardDescribe an atom and how atomic structure affects interactions between atoms.arrow_forward
