An element \(X\) reacts with \(\mathrm{F}_{2}(g)\) to form the molecular product shown below. (a) Write a balanced equation for this reaction (do not worry about the phases for \(X\) and the product). (b) Do you think that \(X\) is a metal or nonmetal? Explain. [Section 7.6]
For each of the following pairs, which element will have the greater metallic character: (a) Li or Be, (b) Li or Na, (c) Sn or \(\mathrm{P}_{\text {, }}\) (d) \(\mathrm{Al}\) or \(\mathrm{B}\) ?
Make a simple sketch of the shape of the main part of the periodic table, as shown (a) Ignoring \(\mathrm{H}\) and \(\mathrm{He}\), write a single straight arrow from the element with the smallest bonding atomic radius to the element with the largest. (b) Ignoring \(\mathrm{H}\) and \(\mathrm{He}\), write a single straight arrow from the element with the smallest first ionization energy to the element with the largest. (c) What significant observation can you make from the arrows you drew in parts (a) and (b)? [Sections \(7.3\) and 7.4]
(a) Why does the quantum mechanical description of many-electron atoms make it difficult to define a precise atomic radius? (b) When nonbonded atoms come up against one another, what determines how closely the nuclear centers can approach?
The experimental \(\mathrm{Bi}-\mathrm{I}\) bond length in bismuth triiodide, \(\mathrm{BiI}_{3}\), is \(2.81 \AA\). Based on this value and data in Figure \(7.7\), predict the atomic radius of \(B\) i.
