Question

1) Place the elements Rb, Cs, K, Na in order of increasing metallic character?

2) Identify the most reactive alkali metal with water? A) Li    B) Na    C) K    D) Cs      E) Rb

3) Write reaction that represents the second electron affinity of S?

4) Draw two valence orbital diagrams that represents the ground state Se with a 2- charge and Zn?

5) Give the ground state electron configuration for Cd, Rb, I, and Ba ?

6) Place the following elements: N, F, As, in order of increasing Ionic energization?

7) Identify the number of valence electrons in Cl -1?

Explanation / Answer

1) You have to take a look to the periodic chart, Rb, Cs, k and Na are in row, the order is

Na < K < Rb < Cs (most metallic)

2) Answer is Cs

This is because the reactivity increases as you go down in the periodic table

3.)

Second affinity is

S- + e- === S-2
