Answer;

Group 2

Explanation;

-Elements in group 2 (alkaline earth metals) have a 2 valence electrons (two electrons in the outermost energy shell). Which means that for these elements to achieve an octet configuration, they will have to loose two electrons. Therefore; element X has a valency electrons, it reacts chlorine to form a compound (XCl2), since chlorine has a valency of 1.

WILL GIVE NRAINLIEST!! NEED HELP FAST
Elis [28]
Hello,

I believe this is (25 g Al) * (1 mol H / 1.008 g H) = 24.8015 mol H

Hopefully that was the right approach.
I thought that if one mole of Al is
26.982 g, then the numbers of moles for H (1.008 g/mol) would be about 25 mol.
If it doesn’t make sense or if you have resources/notes to which I can refer, I’ll see what I can do!

Good luck!
