Electron movement in the bonding of Group ___ elements with Group 7A elements is best described as ______________

Respuesta :

Answer:

Group 1A

Ionic bond or electrostatic bond

Explanation:

  • Bond is a type of energy that is responsible to hold two or more same or different types of atoms.
  • On the basis of bond formation, the bond may be an ionic bond, covalent bond, coordinate bond and some other.  
  • Group 7A elements like chlorine, bromine and some other has 7 electrons in its outermost shell so it receives 1 electron to complete its octet and thus the formation of chloride or other ions takes place having a negative charge.
  • So 1A group like sodium and some other has 1 electron in its outermost shell and thus loses 1 electron to obtain octane and thus form a positive ion.  
  • Thus attraction takes place between positive ions like sodium ions and negative ions like chloride ions and a bond is formed that is known as an ionic bond or electrostatic bond.

Answer:

2A; valence electrons moving from the metal to the nonmetal to create a crystalline solid.
