(a) For the compound XF₂, X must be a metal. As fluorine is monovalent and there are two fluorine atoms, so the valency of X must be two.

Therefore, X belongs to group 2.

A metallic compound is a compound that contains one or more metal elements bonded to another element.

The elements are bonded with the help of metallic bonds.

Monovalent compounds are compounds which consist of an atom which has only a single covalent bond.

The covalent bond is defined as an interatomic linkage formed by sharing the electronic pair between two atoms.

Valency is the combining power of an element. It helps with bond formation.

Explain how chemists overcome the problem of low yield In industry
mrs_skeptik [129]

High temperature and pressure produce the highest rate of reaction. However, this must be balanced with the high cost of the energy needed to maintain these conditions. Catalysts increase the rate of reaction without affecting the yield. This can help create processes which work well even at lower temperatures.

I hope this helps you.

1.20×10−8s to nanoseconds
AveGali [126]

Answer:

There are 12 nanoseconds in 1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s.

Explanation:

We need to convert 1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s to nanoseconds.

We know that,

1\ s=10^9\ ns

Now using unitary method to solve it such that,

1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s=1.2\times 10^{-8}\ \times 10^9\\\\=1.2\times 10\\\\=12\ ns

So, there are 12 nanoseconds in 1.2\times 10^{-8}\ s.

Which compound contains both covalent and ionic bonds? <br> a. NCl3 b. NaF c. HCN d. NH4OH
Marina86 [1]
<h2>NH_4OH contains both covalent and ionic bonds.</h2>

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element or the metal and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element or non metal.

a. NCl_3 contain covalent bonds as they are made up of non metals only.

b. NaF contain ionic bonds as they are made up of sodium metal and fluorine non metal.

c. HCN contain covalent bonds as they are made up of non metals only.

d. NH_4OH contain  ionic bonds between NH_4 and OH and covalent between N and H in NH_4^+
