(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.

o-na [289]

Answer:

V2 = 17371.43ml

Explanation:

We use Boyles laws

since temperature is constant

P1V1=P2V2

760 x 400 = 17.5 x V2

304000 = 17.5 x V2

V2 = 304000/17.5

V2 = 17371.43ml

The image formed by a lens may be real or virtual. The image formed by a lens is always virtual.
amid [387]
There are types of lens; concave and convex lens.
The concave lens is a lens which has an inward curve in the middle, that is, the edges of the curve are thicker than the center of the lens, because of this, any light that enter the lens will spread out [diverge]. An image will look smaller and upright when viewed by a concave lens. Image formed by concave lens are usually VIRTUAL. 
A concave lens will produce a real image ONLY if the object is located beyond the focal point of the lens.
A convex lens is a converging lens, this is because, the center of the lens is thicker than its edges. Any ray of light that passes through the lens will converge at the middle of the lens at point called principal focus.  A convex lens produce a VIRTUAL image when the object is placed infront of the focal point. The virtual image formed is always magnified and upright.<span />
