Co diffuses 1.25 times the rate of diffusion of c02
Explanation:
An alpha particles is basically a helium nucleus and it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons.
Symbol of an alpha particle is 
. Whereas a neutron is represented by a symbol 
, that is, it has zero protons and only 1 neutron.
Therefore, reaction equation when an aluminum- nuclide transforms into a phosphorus- nuclide by absorbing an alpha particle and emitting a neutron is as follows.
If it is located at the second to last row of the periodic table (the halogen family), has seven electrons on it's outer shell, and has an oxidation number of -1, it is a halogen.

Answer is: Cl and Na.
sodium and chlorine are in third period and they have very different properties. Sodium is solid metal and chlorine is gaseous nonmetal.
They form compound NaCl (Sodium chloride), because sodium lost one valence electron and form cation Na⁺, chlorine gain one electron and form anion Cl⁻.
Electron configuration of sodium atom: ₁₁Na 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹.
Electron configuration of chlorine atom: ₁₇Cl 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵.
Other examples are metal-metal pairs and they do not form cation and anion.
