<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the property of as element to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself. The value of electronegativity is high for non-metals because they can easily gain electrons as compared to the metals.

This value decreases as we move down the group and increases as we move across a period.

Halogens are the elements which belong to Group 17. They easily gain electrons in order to attain stability. Thus, these elements have high electronegativity values.

Alkali metals are the elements which belong to Group 1. They easily loose electrons in order to attain stability and thus have low electronegativity.

Transition elements are the elements which belong from Group 3 to Group 12. They easily loose electrons in order to attain stability and thus have low electronegativity.

Alkaline earth metals are the elements which belong to Group 2. They easily loose electrons in order to attain stability and thus have low electronegativity.

From the above information, the elements which belong o Group 1 have the lowest electronegativity values.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

To which period does an element belong if it has its 3d orbitals filled
swat32

fourth period

The third period is similar to the second, except the 3s and 3p sublevels are being filled. Because the 3d sublevel does not fill until after the 4s sublevel, the fourth period contains 18 elements, due to the 10 additional electrons that can be accommodated by the 3d orbitals.

2MG+O2 ...........2MGO
Galina-37 [17]
Mg + 1/2 O2 → MgO

1 mol = 24 g of Mg

X mol = 12 g of Mg

x = 0.5 moles of Mg

Mg :MgO = 1:1 (coefficient from equations using mole ratio)

So

0.5 moles of MgO

1 mol MgO = (24+16) g = 40 g

0.5 moles of MgO = 0.5 × 40

= 20 g of MgO produced
