Describe the theory associated with the radius of an atom as it (a)gains an electron (b)loses an electron
Question 1
Hydrogen resembles halogens in many respects for which several factors are responsible. Of the following factors which one is most important in this respect ?
(a) Its tendency to lose an electron to form a cation
(b) Its tendency to gain a single electron in its valence shell to attain stable electronic configuration
(c) Its low negative electron enthalpy value
(d) Its small size
Why Do Hydrogen Being A Non Metal Loses An Electron It Could Gain One Electron To Attain Noble Gas Configuration
