Answer: alkaline earth metals (group-IIA)
Explanation:
The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and forms a positively charged ion called as cation. The element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element and forms a negatively charged ion called as anion.
Alkaline earth metals donate 2 valence electrons to acquire noble gas configuration.
For example: Berrylium is the first alkaline earth metal with atomic number of 4 and thus has 4 electrons
Electronic configuration of berrylium:
![[Be]:4:1s^22s^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BBe%5D%3A4%3A1s%5E22s%5E2)
Berrylium atom will loose two electrons to gain noble gas configuration and form berrylium cation with +2 charge.
![[Be^{2+}]:2:1s^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BBe%5E%7B2%2B%7D%5D%3A2%3A1s%5E2)
Thus Elements donate 2 electron to produce a cation with a 2+ charge are alkaline earth metals.
Answer: C) Heat
What I know so far is that heat makes it harder for the electrons to reach the source, thus making it hard to collide with the nucleus, but I’m not sure so you can see if it’s correct.
Density= 1.2092 because density = mass/volume
Ice is simply just frozen water, so it's formula would be the same was water: H2O
