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.

Choose the covalent compounds from the following choices Br2 MgS SO2 KF
Novosadov [1.4K]

Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

 

                Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent Bond

                

                Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent Bond

            

                Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

 

For Br₂;

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                    E.N of Bromine      =   2.96

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.00          (Non Polar Covalent Bond)


For MgS;

                    E.N of Sulfur               =   2.58

                    E.N of Magnesium      =   1.31

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                  1.27          (Ionic Bond)


For SO₂;

                    E.N of Oxygen      =   3.44

                    E.N of Sulfur          =   2.58

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference             0.86          (Polar Covalent Bond)


For KF;

                    E.N of Fluorine          =   3.98

                    E.N of Potassium      =   0.82

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                3.16          (Ionic Bond)

Result: The Bonds in Br₂ and SO₂ are Covalent in Nature.

P4+ __02_ P4010 <br> I need help ASAP
klasskru [66]

Answer:

P_4+5O_2\rightarrow P_4O_{10}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when we want to balance chemical reactions such as in this case, the idea is to equal to number of atoms of each element at each side of the equation according to the lay of conservation of mass, just as shown below:

P_4+5O_2\rightarrow P_4O_{10}

Because we have four phosphorous and ten oxygen atoms at each side.

Best regards!
