Concept explainers
Interpretation: Type of ions formed by metals and non-metals by loss or gain of electron is to be explained.
Concept introduction: Periodic table is an arrangement where elements are arranged on the basis of their increasing
Answer to Problem 48A
Metals form electropositive ions by the process of oxidation that is loss of electron due to low ionization energy associated to them. Non metals form electronegative ions by the process of reduction that is gain of electron due to very high ionization energy associated to them.
Explanation of Solution
Metals form electropositive ions by the process of oxidation that is loss of electron due to low ionization energy associated to them. Ionization process of metal can be shown as follows:
Where,
Non metals form electronegative ions by the process of reduction that is gain of electron due to very high ionization energy associated to them. Ionization process of non-metal can be shown as follows:
Where,
Metals form electropositive ions by the process of oxidation that is loss of electron due to low ionization energy associated to them. Non metals form electronegative ions by the process of reduction that is gain of electron due to very high ionization energy associated to them.
