Question

The IUPAC name of an element with atomic number 119 is:

A

Ununoctium

B

Ununennium

C

Unnilennium

D

Unununnium

Step-by-Step Solution

According to the IUPAC systematic nomenclature for elements with atomic number Z>100Z > 100, the name is derived from the numerical roots of the digits in the atomic number, followed by the suffix '-ium'.

For atomic number 119:

  1. The root for the digit 1 is un.
  2. The root for the digit 1 is un.
  3. The root for the digit 9 is enn.

Combining these roots with the suffix: un + un + enn + ium = Ununennium. The symbol would be Uue .

The formation of the oxide ion O²⁻(g) from oxygen atom requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below: O(g) + e⁻ → O⁻(g); ΔH° = -141 kJ mol⁻¹ O⁻(g) + e⁻ → O²⁻(g); ΔH° = +780 kJ mol⁻¹ Thus, the process of formation of O²⁻ in gas phase is unfavourable even though O²⁻ is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that:

A.Electron repulsion outweighs the stability gained by achieving noble gas configuration
B.O⁻ ion has comparatively smaller size than oxygen atom
C.Oxygen is more electronegative
D.Addition of electron in oxygen result in large size of the ion
