Question

The element with atomic number 3 to 10 belong to the second period. Identify the most electropositive and most electronegative element in this period.

A
$$F, Li$$
B
$$Li, F$$
C
$$Li, Ne$$
D
$$Ne, Li$$
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is B. $$Li, F$$
Li having atomic number 3 is most electropositive and F having atomic number 9 is most electronegative in this period.

Q4

what is electronegative element is it gain of electron ex:Mg+ Cl2 MgCl2

where mg is positive (+) and cl2 is (-)negative which means mg =mg + 2e- and cl2 +2e-=cl2-

and this means Mg+ Cl2 MgCl2 where electronegative element cl2- combines with electropositive element mg

how can we say this electronegative element beacause electropositive element mg added (or) combained to electronegative element cl2 instead of removing mg

i) Electropositive nature of the element(s) increase down the group and decreases across the period.
ii) Electronegative of the element decreases down the group and increases across the period.
iii) Atomic size increases down the group and decreases across a period (left to right).
iv) Metallic character increases down the group and decreases across a period.
On the basis of above trends of the Periodic Table,asnwer the following about the elements with atomic numbers 3 to 9.
a) Name the most electropositive element among them
b)Name the most electronegative element.
c) Name the element with smallest atomic size.
