Question

I.     Arrange the following ions according to ionization energy, based on principles learned in lecture:

                                                  Na, Cl, Cs, C, K, Ne+, F, Ne

Your answer will be of the form A<B<C<D<E<F<G<H . Place the symbol for each atom or ion in the appropriate blank below:

                           ____             < ____             <____ <____ <____ <____ < ____ < ____

       

                                                1              2              3              4              5              6              7

       Explain why Ne has larger or smaller ionization energy than Ne+. __________________________________________

II.    Arrange the following ions according to expected size (radius), based on principles learned in lecture:

                                                  K, F+, Rb, Co25+, Br, Rb-, F, Mg

Your answer will be of the form A<B<C<D<E<F<G<H . Place the symbol for each atom or ion in the appropriate blank below:

                           ____             < ____             <____ <____ <____ <____ < ____ < ____

       

                                                1              2              3              4              5              6              7

      Explain why F has larger or smaller radius than Mg. __________________________________________

     

Explanation / Answer

I Cs< K <Na <C <Cl <F <Ne <Ne+

The second ionization energy is always larger than the first ionization energy, because it requires even more energy to remove an electron from a cation than it is from a neutral atom


II Co25+ < F+ < F < Br < K < Rb < Rb-
