Chapter 3, Problem 3.114CHP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An element with greatest electron affinity in the given set has to be identified and explained.

Concept introduction:

Electron affinity:

In a gaseous state isolated neutral atom, energy released when an electron is introduced in outermost shell is known as electron affinity. Greater the negative value of electron affinity,  the atom has more tendency to accept an electron.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

An ion with largest ionic radii in the given set has to be identified and explained.

Concept introduction:

Ionic radii:

It is the half of the distance between two ions which are close together. The size of ions depends on charges of the ions. Ions with positive charge called cations are smaller in size than negative charged anions.

5. The atoms and ions Ne, N³-, F, Mg2+, and Si4+ are part of an isoelectronic series. (a) Which of these will have the smallest effective nuclear charge acting on the outermost electron? (b) Which one possess the greatest effective nuclear charge? (c) Which ion will be the largest in size? Explain why.
Boron, atomic number 5, occurs naturally as two isotopes, 10B and 11B, with natural abundances of 19.9% and 80.1%, respectively.  (a) In what ways do the two isotopes differ from each other? Does the electronic configuration of 10B differ from that of 11B? (b) Draw the orbital diagram for an atom of 11B. Which electrons are the valence electrons? (c) Indicate three ways in which the 1s electrons in boron differ from its 2s electrons. (d) Elemental boron reacts with fluorine to form BF3, a gas. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of solid boron with fluorine gas. (e) ­ΔHf° for BF3(g) is -1135.6 kj/mol. Calculate the standard enthalpy change in the reaction of boron with fluorine. (f) Will the mass percentage of F be the same in 10BF3 and 11BF3? If not, why is that the case?
