Question 1
F- < O2-
• From O2- to F-, the ionic radius decreases.
• All anions have the same electronic configuration: 1s2 2s2 2p6
• This is called isoelectronic configuration.
• From O2- to F-, the proton number increases causing the Zeff increases as well.
• The attraction between nucleus and the valence electrons becomes stronger causing the electron
cloud shrink and the ionic radius will be smaller.
Question 2
Be : 1s2 2s2
B : 1s2 2s2 2p1
Question 3
Sudden increase in ionization energy from IE1 to IE2. The second electron is removed from the
inner shell which has stable noble gas electron configuration and close to nucleus. More energy
needed to remove the second electron. Therefore, it has one valence electron. Valence electronic
configuration is 3s1. Y is located in group 1 and block s.
b) Electronic configuration :
c) Chemical equation :
4Y + O2 → 2YO
Oxide formed in basic
