Ions quiz Loading... 1. Explain, in terms of the arrangement of electrons in its atoms, why neon is very unreactiveNeon has 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it is full. Therefore it does not easily gain or lose electronsNeon has the same number of electrons and protons so it is unreactiveNeon is a noble gasNeon has an even number of electrons so it does not need to form bondsQuestion 1 of 22 Loading... 2. Explain why magnesium oxide has a higher melting point than sodium chloride.Mg²⁺ and O²⁻ ions have a higher charge than sodium and chloride therefore the electrostatic forces between the ions are much stronger. This requires more energy to break.Sodium chloride is a simple molecular substance so there are only weak intermolecular forces which require little energy to breakMagnesium and oxygen are more reactive elementsMg²⁺ and O²⁻ ions are larger than sodium and chloride therefore the electrostatic forces between the ions are much stronger. This requires more energy to break.Question 2 of 22 Loading... 3. What is the formula of the phosphide ion?P³⁻P²⁺P³⁺P²⁻Question 3 of 22 Loading... 4. What is the formula for iron (II) oxideFeOFeO₂Fe₂O₂Fe₂OQuestion 4 of 22 Loading... 5. What is the formula for potassium bromide?KBrKBr₂K₂BrKBr₃Question 5 of 22 Loading... 6. Explain, in terms of structure and bonding, why magnesium oxide has a higher melting point than sodium chloride Sodium chloride is a simple molecular substance so there are only weak intermolecular forces which require little energy to breakMg²⁺ and O²⁻ ions are larger than sodium and chloride therefore the electrostatic forces between the ions are much stronger. This requires more energy to break.Magnesium and oxygen are more reactive elementsNaCl and MgO both have a giant ionic structure with strong electrostatic forces between oppositely charged ions. The Ions in MgO have a charge of 2 and -2, but in NaCl the charges are 1 and -1. So the bonds in MgO require more energy to breakQuestion 6 of 22 Loading... 7.
