List and explain which of the following atoms forms a positive ion with more difficulty. B or F Answer: 1. Si holds its valence electrons less tightly than Cal since electronegativity increases as you go to the right in a period which means that Si which is further to the left in the period has the lower electronegativity and therefore the lower attraction for its valence electrons. 2. F forms a positive ion less easily than B since ionization potential increases as you go to the right in a period which means that F with the higher ionization potential requires more energy to lose an electron and form a positive ion so it does so less easily.
