Zinaida [17]2 years ago

The answer is group 1A.

In the ionic compound formula X₂SO₄, SO₄ has a -2 charge. Hence to balance this -2 charge of SO₄, X must have a +1 charge.

Group 1A elements form X⁺ type of ions because they are metals. So, they have the tendency to lose electrons.

Hence, X must belong to the 1A group.

Ionic Compounds-

  • Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic attraction between the anions and the cations.
  • Cations are positively charged ions that are formed due to the loss of electrons.
  • And the anions are negatively charged ions that are formed due to the gain of electrons.
  • Due to this, they have opposite charges and form bonds known as Ionic Bond.

Explanation:

General formula for alkanes

C _{n}H _{2n + 2}

since H = 6

2n + 2 = 6 \\ 2n = 4 \\ n = 2 \\ since \: x = n\\   \therefore \: x = 2

Lost one extensive and one intensive property of a marker ink
emmainna [20.7K]
An extensive property is a property that deals with the amount of a substance. An extensive property of marker ink would be the volume of the ink in the pen. An intensive property is a property about the type of substance you're looking at. So, an intensive property of marker ink would be the color of the ink.

Why don't noble gasses want to react with anyone?
Zepler [3.9K]
They have a full valence shell (8 electrons in the outer shell) so they are the most stable elements on the periodic table. Therefore, they do not need to react to other elements to gain or lose elections to become stable.
