a)
write the ground state electron configuration for two cation and
two anions that each resemble the electron configuration for a neon
noble gas atom. (the term for this is isoelectronic).
b) which if these four ions is the largest?
6. Write the ground state electron configuration of the
chromium(VI) cation. Is the chromium(VI) cation paramagnetic or
diamagnetic? Explain.7. Choose the atom with the larger atomic radius from each of
the following pairs:A. Cl or Se B. Mg or Sr C. Cl or Cl- D. Mg or Mg2+8. Choose the more metallic atom from the following pairs:A. Ga or Si B. Mg or Sr9. Choose the atom in each pair that has the greater electron
affinity (or more exothermic electron...
