Question
  1. (a) The electronic configuration of a certain element known as element A, is
               1s22s22p3.  

 

  • Write a balanced equation to represent the first (1st) ionization energy of element A. Use “A” as the symbol of the element. Include the physical states used.                                                                            

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Either: Sketch and insert a graph showing the general form which you would expect for the seven ionization energies of element A, labelling the axes.

Or

Describe the graph that could be drawn, which should include the following: What is the label on the vertical axis of the graph, include units?

What is the label on the horizontal axis of the graph?

Describe the pattern expected in the graph

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Describe the shape of the amide ion (NH2-), using Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) theory. State the bond angles and the shape of the amide ion. You may sketch and insert a suitable diagram to aid your description if you wish.
