Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A compound is defined as a substance that has two or more number of different atoms which are chemically combined to each other in a fixed ratio by mass.

For example, H_{2}O contains two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen which are chemically combined together in 2:1 ratio. Therefore, it is a compound.

On the other hand, if a substance contains only atoms of one type of element then it is known as a molecule.

For example, C_{2}, H_{2}, and O_{2} are all molecules.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options H_{2}O represents a compound.

Element X has the following valence electron configuration: [core]ns2np5. Element M has the following valence electron configura
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The kind of ionic compound formed is MX2.

Explanation:

Element X electron  configuration is represented as [core] ns2np5. The group in the periodic table this element belong to is group 7A.  The element group is called the halogen family. Element X cannot be stated specifically, because the number is represented with n.  Element X will behave as an anions when it react with a metal(cations). Element X has a charge of -1. The element X will gain electron when it bond with a metal. Element X is a non metal . Elements  in this group are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine , astatine, and tennessine . The element X have 7 valency electrons.

Element M electronic configuration is represented as  [core]ns2. The group in the periodic table this element belong to is group 2A . The element  group is called the alkaline earth metals family . Element M will behave as a cation when it bond with a non metal. Element M is a metal , therefore it will likely lose electron to form cations during bonding . The charge of element M is 2+. Element M is positively charged. Elements that belong to this group includes beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.  Element M has 2 valency electrons.

The reaction between this 2 ions will likely form an ionic compound . The element M is the cations while the element X is the anions. The element M will lose 2 electron while 2 atoms of element  X will gain 2 electrons.Element M will lose 2 electron to attain a stable configuration while 2 atoms of element X will gain a single electron each to attain a stable configuration.

M²+ and F- . This will form MX2 when you cross multiply the charge. The kind of ionic compound formed is MX2.

Calculate the specific heat of a substance if a 35g sample absorbs 48 j as the temperature is raised from 293 k to 313 k
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

c = 0.07 j/g.k

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sample = 35 g

Heat absorbed = 48 j

Initial temperature = 293 K

Final temperature = 313 K

Specific heat of substance = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = Final temperature - initial temperature

ΔT = 313 k - 293 K

ΔT = 20 k

Now we will put the values in formula.

48 j = 35 g × c× 20 k

48 j = 700 g.k ×c

c = 48 j/700 g.k

c = 0.07 j/g.k
