Question 1

What is Electronegativity?

Answer 1

Electronegativity is a measure of the ability of a chemically combined atom to attract electrons to itself.

• 4.0 is the highest Electronegativity.
• Electronegativity is the opposite of atomic radium
• largest radii is at the bottom

Question 2

What is super conductivity?

Answer 2

Super conductivity is when electrons move with no resistance as temperature drops close to absolute zero.

• Meissner effect : levitating magnets
• 1986 - materiel engineer working with Yittrium Copper Oxides
  - wrote Meissners (arrow up) temperature
• now super conductivity at 138k

N2(L) = 77 k

Question 3

Answer 4

Energy
Addition
Gaseous atom

Question 5

What is ionizing energy?

Answer 5
