Choose any alkali metal from the periodic table. In a paragraph and in your own words, please describe what the Bohr model of a neutral atom of this element looks like. Then describe what happens when neutral atoms of this alkali metal are introduced to water for the first time compared to other alkali metals . Use the following terms : NUCLEUS, PROTONS, ELECTRONS , ENERGY LEVEL/SHELL, NEUTRONS VALENCE ELECTRONS , IONIZATION ENERGY , GROUP 1, ELECTRON TRANSFER , ELECTROSTATIC REPULSION

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."

i think it is true since you can test the answer and can use observations to complete it.
