False because electronegativity tends to increase as you move from top to bottom through groups and from left to right for periods of the periodic table.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the ability of an atom, within a molecule, to attract the electrons it shares with another atom. The electronegativity of an element is related to its ionization energy, which is the energy needed to start an electron to a gaseous atom, isolated and in fundamental state, and the electronic affinity, which energy exchanged when a neutral, gaseous atom, and in fundamental state, pick up an electron.

Given this, it can be said that the most electronegative elements have a tendency to capture electrons and form negative ions, because the values of their ionization energies and electronic affinity are high, that is, their electronegativity is high.

Both ionization energy and electronic affinity tend to increase as you move from top to bottom through groups and from left to right for periods of the periodic table.

Taking this into account, electronegativity, as it descends within the same group, the atomic radius increases and the ionization energy decreases, indicating that electrons are less attracted and therefore electronegativity decreases from top to bottom. And as you move through a period the atomic radius decreases and the ionization energy increases, making it increasingly difficult to extract an electron. Consequently the electronegativity increases from left to right.

In short, taking everything into account, it has the same tendency as electronic affinity and ionization energy in the periodic table. So electronegativity tends to increase as you move from top to bottom through groups and from left to right for periods of the periodic table.

Answer from: Quest

the density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3

the relation between density and mass and volume is

density = mass / volume

given :

mass of gold = 13 g

density = 13g / volume = 19.3

volume = 13 /19.3 = 0.67 cm^3

thus volume of gold nugget = 0.67 cm^3

Salicylic acid is a very important acid. it is used to synthesize the aspirin by treating with acetic anhydride. a 0.2015-g sample of salicylic acid was dissolved in a 100.00-ml volumetric flask, and the solution was diluted to the mark. a 10-ml aliquot of this solution was titrated with standard naoh (0.01130 + 0.2% n) to a phenolphthalein faint pink color end point at 19.81 ml. (a) (calculate the normality of the salicylic acid solution used in the titration. (b) assuming the salicylic acid is pure, what is the equivalent weight of the salicylic acid? practice problems for the final exam (continued) (c) (calculate the inherent error in the determination of the equivalent weight you calculated in part (b). use the following absolute errors in the equipment /glassware when calculating the inherent error. 5.00-ml pipet: + 0.02 ml 100-ml volumetric flask: + 0.08 ml analytical balance: + 0.2 mg 25-ml buret: + 0.03 ml
