when sodium metal is dropped in water, hydrogen gas in liberated due to extreme heat released as the reaction is exothermic, gas catches fire.
Answer:
1. (S,O) < (Se,S) < (C,H) = (H,I) = (H,F) < (Si,Cl) < (K,Br)
Explanation:
The covalent character always increases down the group, this is because ionic character decreases down the group and also electronegativity.
In the same way, Covalent character always decreases across a period because electronegativity increases across a period.
The higher the electronegativity values between the two atoms, the more ionic it will be.
It will be Oxygen . And total 8 protons, 8 electrons and 9 neutrons are present in it.
Answer:
D.) Mg(NO₃)₂
Explanation:
Since magnesium (Mg) is a metal and nitrate (NO₃) is a polyatomic anion, they would combine to form an ionic compound. Magnesium would form the cation Mg²⁺ because it generally has 2 valence electrons. Nitrate always has a -1 charge.
In order for the overall compound to be neutral (have a charge of 0), there must be one Mg²⁺ and two NO₃⁻ ions in the compound (+2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0).
Therefore, the formula for the compound formed is Mg(NO₃)₂.
It’s Tin (II) Phosphate!! (Hope this helps!)
