Question

True False  Ionization energy is the energy released when an atom forms a negative ion.
True False  Ionization energy values may be either positive or negative.
True False  Electron affinity is based on the observation that electrons are attracted to other electrons.
True False  Electronegativity is a measure of the relative tendency of an atom to attract the electrons of a chemical bond in which it participates.
True False  Electron affinity is the amount of energy required to add an electron to a neutral atom to form an ion with a (-1) charge.
True False  Electronegativity is a measurement of the energy released when an atom forms a negative ion.

Explanation / Answer

False  Ionization energy is the energy released when an atom forms a negative ion.

Ionization energy is the quantity of energy that an isolated, gaseous atom in the ground electronic state must absorb to discharge an electron, resulting in a cation.

False  Ionization energy values may be either positive or negative.

   It can be only positive
False  Electron affinity is based on the observation that electrons are attracted to other electrons.
            They are repeled

True Electronegativity is a measure of the relative tendency of an atom to attract the electrons of a chemical bond in which it participates.
False  Electron affinity is the amount of energy required to add an electron to a neutral atom to form an ion with a (-1) charge.

Is defined as the amount of energy released when an electron is added to a neutral atom or molecule in the gaseous state to form a negative ion.
True False  Electronegativity is a measurement of the energy released when an atom forms a negative ion.
