Chapter 4, Problem 2SC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the statement “F, Cl, Br and I form
Concept Introduction:
In an atom, the nucleus is surrounded by the electron cloud. Electrons are present in an orbit surrounding the nucleus.
Formation of ions occurs when an atom gains or loses electrons. An atom acquires a positive charge when it loses an electron, and acquires a negative charge when it gains an electron.

Give three examples of ionic compounds. Identify the types of elements that make up the compound in each example. 27. Describe how the physical state of a substance at room temperature depends on the strength of the intermolecular forces between the particles of the substance.arrow_forwardAs seen in the table, compounds containing an integer ratio of elements depend on how many cations combine with how many anions to form a stable compound. For example, in table 1, to form a NaCl compound, first Na ionizes from the Na+ cation which is having +1 positive charge, which will lose 1 electron, it is having +1 charge, this electron then goes to Cl and it will change to Cl- anion by gaining the electron, so here 1:1 ratio charge which means 1 Na+ combines with 1 Cl-1 to form NaCl. So here integer ratio is 1:1 for this sodium chloride compound. As listed in table 2, Mg(OH)2, the integer ratio is 1:2 which means, Mg is a neutral atom that loses 2 electrons and forms an Mg+2 cation, which combines with OH which gains 1 electron to form OH- anion, So here Mg2+ can combine with 2 OH- anion, so they both combine to form Mg(OH)2 which has integer ratio as 1:2 . Thus, atom forms as ions by losing or gaining electrons and combines together in whole number ratio to form stable…arrow_forwardThe oxyacids containing oxygen (O) and phosphorous (P) are named differently than the oxyanions on which they are based.
