As part of the exploration of one of the moons of Jupiter, a probe digs under the surface, where it finds a pocket of gas. It starts to do some on-board experimentation. The data stored in the probe's computer include the following table of Mulliken electronegativity values of gases.
Element Electronegativity,x
(KJ/mol)
He 1178
Ne 1030
Ar 746
O 728
N 701
Kr 659
Xe 568
Rn 500
After doing some analysis, the probe determines that the gas pocket contains an element that has an ionization energy of I=1527 KJ/mol and an electron affinity of EA=33KJ/mol. What is the identity of this element?
Express your answer using the symbol for the element (e.g., Hg).
The book I have doesn't offer any help with this problem, if someone could help me i would greatly appreciate it
