1.4 Periodicity Test Ms 1.: in A Covalent Bond
4 PERIODICITY TEST MS
1. (a) Elements in the p block have their outer electron(s) in
p orbital(s) or levels or sub-shells (1)
example of element (1)
correct electronic configuration (1) 3

[3]
4. (a) outer electrons are in third shell (1) (allow 3s, 3p etc NOT 3d)
electronegativity is the power to attract electrons in a covalent bond (or
shared pair) (1)
electronegativity increases from Na to S (1)
because number of protons in the nucleus (or nuclear charge) increases
(1)
and the electrons are in the same shell (or experience the same shielding)
(1)
atomic radius decreases from Na to S (1)
because number of protons in the nucleus (or nuclear charge) increases
(1)
and the electrons are in the same shell (or experience the same shielding)
(1)
