Do we get multiple choice
Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
number of moles magnesium = 6.80mol
number of moles of chlorine = 13.56mol
To find the complete chemical formula, we should obtain the formula of the compound.
Mg Cl
Number of
moles 6.8 13.56
Dividing
by the smallest 6.8/6.8 13.56/6.8
1 2
The formula of the compound is MgCl₂
This is an ionic compound in which Magnesium loses two electrons that would be gained by Cl atoms requiring just an electron each to complete their octet.
<span>
some elements have their outer electrons more tightly bound than
others. Those who have less tightly bound electrons are more reactive.
After this it gets more complex in explaining why they are bound with
different strengths. </span>
