Why are the first elements of the second-period elements significantly different from their congeners?
- The extraordinarily small size (correct)
- The larger charge
- The unavailability of the d orbitals
- The greater probability of pi bonds formation
What effect does the extraordinarily small size have on the second-period elements?
What effect does the extraordinarily small size have on the second-period elements?
- Larger charge and decreased covalent character
- Smaller electron affinities and increased covalent character (correct)
- Greater probability of sigma bonds formation
- Higher electronegativity and reduced overlap of electron clouds
