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.

aleksklad [387]
<span>Electronegativity values are useful in determining if a bond is to be classified as nonpolar covalent, polar covalent or ionic. The electronegativities of oxygen and nitrogen are respectively, 3.44 and 3.04 on Pauling scale, the electronegativity difference being, 0.4. The bond is considered to be non-polar covalent.

Imagine an alternate universe where the value of the Planck constant is 6.6207 x 10^-36 J*s.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Louis de Broglie, matter has an associated wavelength. He was the first scientist to establish the idea of wave-particle duality or wave- particle paradox.

The display of wavelike properties by objects in the universe is dependent on the magnitude of the of the mass of the body. Small objects have a large associated wavelength and can be described completely by quantum mechanics.

A buckyball with a mass of 1.2 x 10-21 g, 0.7 nm wide, moving at 38. m/s has a very small mass and significant associated wavelength hence the system can be completely described by quantum mechanics.
