Chlorine has a charge -1. It means that X is +2 so that the formula is XCl2. Group 2 is the correct answer.

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.

Can we cover the earth with one mole of pennies? Explain.
mezya [45]

Answer:

No we can’t cover the earth with one mole of pennies

Explanation:

We can’t cover the earth with one mole of pennies due to the fact that making this possible will require the flattening and extra expansion before it covers the whole surface.

The extra expansion and flattening with result in the loss of intermolecular forces and won’t remain as a solid and form other states of matter which won’t be able to cover the surface.
