Position of element in periodic table is depend on the electronic configuration of element.
Element with 62 electrons has following electronic configuration:
<span>1s2 2s2 </span>2p6 <span>3s2 </span>3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 <span>5s2 </span>4d10 5p6 4f6 <span>6s<span>2
</span></span>
From above electronic configuration, it can be seen that highest value of principal quantum number, where electron is present, is 6. Hence, element belongs to 6th period.
Further, last electron has entered f-orbital, hence it is a f-block element. Position of f-block element is the bottom of periodic table.
Further, there are 6 electrons in f-orbital. Hence, it is the 6th f-block element in 6th period of periodic table.
Answer:
SiH4 is nonpolar and BBr3 is nonpolar and SiF4 is nonpolar.
Explanation:
SiH4 is a non-polar compound. Though the Si–H bonds are polar, as a result of different electronegativities of Si and H. However, as there are 4 electron repulsions around the central Si atom, the polar bonds are arranged symmetrically around the central atom having a tetrahedral shape hence they cancel out making the compound nonpolar.
SiF4 is a nonpolar molecule because the fluorine atoms are arranged symetrically around the central silicon atom in a tetrahedral molecule with all of the regions of negative charge cancelling each other out just like in SiH4.
The 3 bromine atoms all lie in the same plane thus the geometry of the compound will be trigonal planar. The BBr3 will be non polar because the three B-Br bonds will cancel out each others' dipole moment given that they are in the same plane.
The answer to this would be false.
