Since Cs is ionization Energy375.5 kJ/mol. What is the value of the ionic radius?
Arrange in order of decreasing first ionization energy: C, N, Si Thank you
I need help with this question that is attached. Table 1.4 gave the ionic radii in pm. For k+ it was 138(6), 151(8),159(10) and for f- it was 128(2), 132(4), 133(6). Table 1. 5 gave ionization energies in kj/mol. For k they were 419, 3051 and 4410. For f it was 1681,3375, and 6050. Table 1.6 gave electron affinities in kj/mol and for k it was 48 and for f it was 328. I've also attached the resource table
