Marking Scheme :Periodic Table of Elements & Chemical Bonds Diagram 4.2 has 3 shells and diagram 4. 1has 2 shells. The nuclei attraction in diagram 4.1 is stronger than diagram 4.2. Diagram 4.1 is more electronegative than diagram 4.2 because it is easier to receive electron. Diagram 4.1 is more electronegative and more reactive than diagram 4.2. // Atomic size / distance between nucleus and valence electrons. Nuclei attraction between nucleus and valence electrons Tendency to receive electrons to form negative ion Reactivity Less reactive Atom diagram 4.1 Smaller / nearer Atom diagram 4.2 Bigger / farther
