QUESTION/VRAAG 3

3.1 Energy needed per mole to remove an electron from an atom in a gaseous
phase. 
Energie benodig per mol om 'n elektron uit 'n atoom in die gasfase te
verwyder.  (2)

B:1s2 2s2 2p1 (4)

3.3.2 B has a 2p energy level; 2p has a higher energy than 2s. 

Therefore less energy is needed to remove the valence electrons from B as
from Be.
B het 'n 2p energievlak; 2p het meer energie as 2s 
Dus minder energie word benodig om 'n valenselektron van B te verwyder in
vergelyking met Be. 

OR/OF

2s electrons are paired and 2p electron is unpaired.  Therefore less energy

needed to remove 2p electron. 
Die 2s elektrone is gepaard teenoor die ongepaarde 2p elektrone.  Daaom
word minder energie benodig om 'n 2p elektron te verwyder.  (3)

3.5.2 Reactivity increases from top to bottom

3.5.3 Ionisation energy decreases, thus less energy to remove an electron.

Therefore reactivity increases. 
Ionisasie-energie neem af, daarom word minder energie benodig om 'n
elektron te verwyder. Reaktiwiteit neem dus toe.  (2)
