Consider the anion whose charge is 2- and whose electron configuration is identical to argon. what is the symbol for this anion

Chemistry

AleksAgata [21]3 years ago
8 0

If the ion is negatively charged, anion, it means that it gains two electrons from its surroundings. The number of electrons of an argon (neutral atom) is 18. Two of the electrons in our anion is from the surrounding, so originally it only has 16 electrons.

In the periodic table, the 16th element is sulphur. The chemical symbol of sulphur is S. Thus, the anion is the negatively charged sulphur with chemical symbol of S2-.

Which has the largest atomic radius magnesium silicon sulfur or sodium the smallest
Monica [59]

Therefore the largest atoms are on the left and the smallest on the right. So sodium (Na) has the largest atomic radius, as the valence electrons are the least attracted to the nucleus

What is true when an element is oxidized? It bonds with the hydroxide ion. It loses electrons to another element. It reacts with
Mama L [17]

Answer: It loses electrons to another element.

Explanation:- Oxidation is the process in which an element loses electrons and there is an increase in the oxidation state. On losing electrons it combines with a electronegative element such as oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen etc.

Fe\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction is the process in which an element gains electrons and there is a decrease in the oxidation state.

\frac{1}{2}O_2+2e^-\rightarrow O^{2-}

If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, which type of process is it?
ser-zykov [4K]
If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, the process is endothermic.

The process requires heat in order to proceed. If ice stays in a very cold place, it will not melt unless it's heated. If ice is placed outside where it melts on its own, it gets the heat from the surroundings.
